UNSPSC 85551127: Bypass left anterior chamber to sclera with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left anterior chamber to sclera with synthetic 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 08133J4

UNSPSC 85551127, Bypass left anterior chamber to sclera with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The code nominally describes a specific ophthalmic surgical procedure, but the six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 solicit occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluation, surgical benefit management, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve anterior chamber bypass procedures or ophthalmic implants. The mismatch indicates either a tagging error in the state and local opportunity database or a fundamental misalignment between the code's clinical scope and how jurisdictions are using it for procurement classification.

The opportunities that have been tagged under this code originate from diverse issuing bodies including state agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and cities (Phoenix Retirement Office, Long Beach). Geographic spread spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent solicitations include the Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026 with pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC classification for their target service line rather than rely on this code's current activity.
