UNSPSC 85491988: Excision of left pulmonary artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left pulmonary artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 02BR4ZZ

UNSPSC 85491988 Excision of left pulmonary artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent opportunities tagged under it reflect state and local government buying patterns in occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, employee health benefit carve-outs, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which align with the code's stated clinical procedure scope. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county health systems, and county commissioners' procurement divisions, which do source medical services broadly but not the specific pulmonary surgical procedure the code describes.

Recent opportunities show geographic spread across Washington, California, Arizona, Florida, and Texas. Representative solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations (due October 16, 2026, with a maximum five-year contract value of $750,000); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code appears to have been assigned to these opportunities in error; vendors pursuing state and local medical services should verify code alignment with specific procurement opportunities rather than relying on this UNSPSC classification.
