About UNSPSC 85502000
UNSPSC 85502000 Principal arteries chest or thorax, open approach-part E is a Class code that shows minimal alignment with state and local government purchasing activity. The recent solicitations posted under this code do not address surgical or procedural services for thoracic or cardiovascular pathology; instead, they reflect health plan administration, managed care services, mental health support programming, and emergency medical services oversight. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being procured indicates that this code captures little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.
The five opportunities posted under the code since late February 2026 include inmate medical and pharmacy services for Muscogee County Prison (Columbus Consolidated Government, RFP due May 15, 2026), pharmacy benefit management services for Collier County employee and dependent coverage (RFP due April 9, 2026), virtual primary and urgent care platform services for Monroe County (RFP due April 16, 2026), peer support services for behavioral health workers in San Mateo County (RFP posted May 20, 2025, due July 2, 2025), and fire department medical directorship for Santa Monica (RFP due October 16, 2025). Geographic spread spans Florida, California, and Georgia. The issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners (Collier, Monroe), consolidated city-county government (Columbus), county behavioral health departments (San Mateo), and municipal fire services (Santa Monica). Practitioners evaluating this code should verify actual procurement intent through the issuing body's procurement portal before investing in pursuit strategy, as the code's taxonomic placement does not reflect the service categories being actively solicited.
