UNSPSC 85501709: Insertion of intraluminal device into right internal mammary artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intraluminal device into right internal mammary artery, 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 03H00DZ

UNSPSC 85501709 Insertion of intraluminal device into right internal mammary artery, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged to this code encompass occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical centers of excellence, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve cardiovascular device insertion or the specific procedural intervention the code nominates. The mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error in the source system or a fundamental misalignment between this code's clinical taxonomy and how procurement offices are classifying healthcare and medical staffing services. State and local solicitations under this nominal code span county human resources divisions, municipal retirement offices, state transportation agencies, county health systems, and juvenile probation departments, but the actual scope of work bears no clear relationship to the code's stated definition.

Activity appears across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington in recent months—Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluations, RFP due October 16, 2026), City of Long Beach (surgical centers of excellence, RFP due October 7, 2026), Collier County Florida (pharmacy benefit management, RFP posted August 20 with April 9, 2026 deadline already passed), Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance, RFP due October 9, 2026), Santa Clara County Health System (temporary health professional staffing, RFP due October 7, 2026), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services, RFI due September 25, 2026). Given the absence of true alignment between the code definition and the actual procurements, this code shows little relevant recent activity and warrants investigation into correct UNSPSC category assignment before pursuing opportunities nominally tagged to it.
