UNSPSC 85551108: Extirpation of matter from right iris, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right iris, percutaneous 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 08CC3ZZ

UNSPSC 85551108 Extirpation of matter from right iris, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal scope. The code's clinical procedure definition does not align with the state and local opportunities posted under it; those opportunities instead cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical center-of-excellence networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services—none of which involve ophthalmic surgical intervention. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source data or a data quality issue in how the opportunities were classified to this code.

The recent opportunities span diverse issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System—across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The largest recent opportunity is Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services with historical annual spending around $8.7 million, due April 9, 2026 (note: this date predates the current reference date and may reflect source-data latency), while the City of Phoenix's independent medical evaluation RFP (RTMRFP26001) carries a $750,000 five-year maximum, due October 16, 2026. The Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825), due October 9, 2026, requires all medical examinations and evaluations to be performed by or under supervision of a physician board-certified in occupational medicine and covers 14 ferry system locations statewide. Because the code's nominal clinical scope does not match the health-services procurement actually posted under it, pursuing opportunities under this code would require clarification with issuing bodies regarding the accuracy of UNSPSC coding.
