This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left anterior chamber to sclera with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 08133K4

UNSPSC 85551126 Bypass left anterior chamber to sclera with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The UNSPSC title references a specific ophthalmic surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code — independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees, and temporary health professional staffing — do not match the code's stated surgical scope. This misalignment suggests either erroneous code assignment by issuing bodies or that the code is being used as a catch-all for health services procurement where more granular codes would be appropriate. The opportunities that do appear reflect broader municipal, county, and state health system activity around benefits administration, occupational medicine, and ancillary clinical staffing rather than ophthalmologic procedure procurement or supply.

Recent solicitation activity spans three states. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office issued RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) supporting disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel; the Washington State Department of Transportation issued RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026); the City of Long Beach issued RFP HR26753 for surgical benefit carve-out networks (due October 7, 2026); Collier County issued RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management covering 2,400 employees (due April 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System issued RFSQHHSFY270052 for temporary ancillary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). Harris County Juvenile Probation Department posted RFI 071626BNM seeking emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (due September 25, 2026). The fragmented nature of these opportunities — spanning retirement boards, transportation agencies, municipal HR functions, and county health systems — combined with the code-to-work mismatch suggests this code warrant close attention to actual posting language rather than reliance on UNSPSC taxonomy for bid matching.
