UNSPSC 85493252 Bypass left atrium to left pulmonary artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local contract activity. The recent opportunities posted against this code cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out administration, specialty and emergency medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve cardiac surgical procedures or the implantation of autologous arterial tissue. The mismatch suggests either tagging error in the source data or a divergence between the code's clinical definition and its use in procurement systems.

The issuing bodies across the recent opportunities include city and county human resources or health departments (Phoenix, Long Beach, Collier County, Santa Clara), state transportation authorities (Washington Department of Transportation), and county juvenile justice systems (Harris County). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) supporting disability determinations for public safety personnel; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQS for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including audiology, radiology, and respiratory care (due October 7, 2026). None of these opportunities align with the Commodity code's stated scope.
