This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left internal mammary artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach.

UNSPSC 85501645 Replacement of left internal mammary artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach (Commodity) shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific cardiac surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code are medical staffing, benefits administration, pharmacy management, and occupational health surveillance services — none of which align with the procurement of a particular surgical intervention or its materials. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the actual work being solicited suggests this code is either incorrectly applied by posting agencies or reflects a data-quality issue in how opportunities are being tagged.

State and local agencies pursuing this code should verify classification before pursuing: the Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP RTMRFP26001, independent medical evaluation services, due October 16, 2026), City of Long Beach (HR26753, surgical benefit carve-out program for employees, due October 7, 2026), Washington State Department of Transportation (RFP20260825, occupational medical surveillance, due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (RFI 071626BNM, specialty and emergency medical services for youth in custody, due September 25, 2026), Collier County (RFP 25-8414, pharmacy benefit management, due April 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System (RFSQHHSFY270052, temporary health professional staffing, due October 7, 2026) represent the bulk of recent postings. None procure cardiac surgery supplies, equipment, or clinical implants. Treat this code as inactive for procurement planning purposes unless future postings demonstrate genuine alignment with the commodity's clinical scope.
