This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of infusion 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 03H003Z

UNSPSC 85501710 Insertion of infusion device into right internal mammary artery, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure (insertion of an infusion device into the right internal mammary artery via open approach), yet the recent opportunities posted under this code involve independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs — none of which involve the implantation of infusion devices into coronary arteries. The source indicates a taxonomic mismatch rather than legitimate state and local demand for the procedure itself. State and local agencies are not soliciting cardiac interventions or implantable medical devices under this code.

The opportunities on record span multiple issuing bodies including municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city employee benefits programs (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County), county corrections (Harris County), and county employee benefit consortiums (Collier County), but none of these solicitations align with the code's surgical procedure scope. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas based on the opportunities listed, yet the lack of thematic coherence across these postings underscores that the code does not represent an active or properly tagged procurement category for state and local governments. Buyers in this space should treat this code as inactive for procurement purposes and verify the correct UNSPSC classification if pursuing opportunities in occupational health, benefits administration, or medical staffing services.
