UNSPSC 85494462: Insertion of intraluminal device into right pulmonary vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intraluminal device into right pulmonary vein, open 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 02HS0DZ

UNSPSC 85494462 "Insertion of intraluminal device into right pulmonary vein, open approach" is a Commodity code that shows a material mismatch between its clinical procedure taxonomy and the work actually being solicited under it by state and local governments. Recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect general occupational and benefits-related medical services, pharmaceutical administration, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve the implantation of intraluminal devices into pulmonary veins. The code does not reflect the narrow surgical intervention its name describes; instead, it appears to serve as a catch-all tag for diverse health service procurement by public employers and health authorities. Issuing bodies include county health systems, county commissioners' offices managing employee benefits, state transportation departments managing occupational health, county juvenile justice agencies, and municipal retirement boards. The mix spans employee health plan administration (pharmacy benefits, surgical carve-out networks), occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical care for detained youth, independent disability medical evaluations, and temporary clinical staffing pools.

Activity appears concentrated in California (Santa Clara County, Long Beach), Arizona (Phoenix), Washington State (Department of Transportation, Washington State Ferries), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with no apparent geographic concentration. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance covering 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026, with pre-bid conference August 31), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits under an Anthem Blue Cross PPO plan (due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary categories (due October 7, 2026). The code's connection to its nominal scope remains unclear; bidders should treat recent activity as a signal that the code is misapplied rather than a reliable indicator of purchasing intent aligned with its clinical procedure definition.
