UNSPSC 85492008: Dilation of left pulmonary artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left pulmonary artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, 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 027R44Z

UNSPSC 85492008 Dilation of left pulmonary artery with drug-eluting intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope—a specific cardiovascular interventional procedure—and the state and local procurement activity actually tagged under it. The recent opportunities in the source block do not involve pulmonary artery dilation or drug-eluting devices. Instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, specialty surgical care networks, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These solicitations reflect general health and human services administration rather than the narrow interventional cardiology procedure the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies are diverse and include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, County of Santa Clara), cities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), and health systems. The geographic spread spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations with proposals due October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach's RFP for a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program due October 7, 2026; and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services. The code itself appears to be a data-tagging error at the source procurement level rather than a meaningful category for state and local medical device or interventional procedure procurement.
