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

UNSPSC 85501649 Replacement of right internal mammary artery with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not align with the healthcare-related solicitations posted under this code by state and local issuing bodies. Recent opportunities tagged to this code instead cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for public-safety pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these services represent the surgical implant or procedural work the code's title suggests.

The geographic and issuing-body mix across these misaligned solicitations spans multiple states and jurisdiction types: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation (Washington), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and County of Santa Clara Health System (California). The Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) and the City of Phoenix independent medical evaluation RFP (due October 16, 2026) represent the most recent opportunities, yet neither involves the surgical procedure this code nominally identifies. Bidders pursuing work under this code should note the disconnect between its stated scope and what state and local bodies are actually soliciting; the code may be misapplied in the procurement system.
