UNSPSC 85501743 Dilation of right internal mammary artery, open approach is a Commodity code for a specific cardiac surgical procedure, yet state and local government procurement activity under this code shows little alignment with its procedural scope. The recent opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs for Centers of Excellence networks, specialty medical services for youth in custody, and temporary ancillary clinical staffing — none of which involve dilation of the internal mammary artery as a direct service or product line. The mismatch suggests the code is either misapplied in these solicitations or that state and local procurement systems are using medical procedure codes to tag procurement of broader occupational health, employee benefits administration, and clinical staffing services without strict alignment to the code's nominal definition.

The issuing bodies span county human resources departments, county health systems, city retirement offices, state transportation agencies, and county juvenile justice agencies across Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. Representative recent 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 across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026), the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award solicitation for temporary ancillary clinical staffing (due October 7, 2026), and the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out management (due October 7, 2026). These opportunities reflect state and local procurement of health services administration and occupational health support rather than direct surgical procedures, and vendors pursuing this code should verify code accuracy with issuing procurement offices before bid preparation.
