UNSPSC 85551130: Bypass right 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 right 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 08123J4

UNSPSC 85551130 Bypass right anterior chamber to sclera with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific ophthalmic surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show no alignment with that clinical definition. Instead, the opportunities span occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs for public employee health plans, and youth detention healthcare — none of which involve bypass procedures or ophthalmic surgery. The code appears to have been applied inconsistently or erroneously to general healthcare procurement activity rather than the narrow procedure it nominally names, creating a fundamental mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual work being solicited.

The issuing bodies are diverse and include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), cities (Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), and healthcare systems. Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's solicitation for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP 20260825, due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent medical evaluation and disability record summary services for public safety pension boards (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); and Collier County's pharmacy benefit management services RFP covering 2,400 enrolled employees (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity relative to its stated procedure-specific definition, suggesting either miscoding in the state and local procurement system or that the code is being used as a catch-all for medical services procurement more broadly.
