UNSPSC 85551235 Replacement of left sclera with autologous tissue substitute, external approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure, yet recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show little direct alignment with the procedure itself. Instead, the opportunities reflect a broader procurement pattern in occupational health, disability evaluation, employee health benefits administration, and clinical staffing — functions that fall outside the code's nominal surgical scope. The mismatch signals that this code sees limited relevant state and local activity in its stated medical procedure domain.

State and local solicitations under this code originate from diverse issuing bodies including city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), county juvenile justice agencies (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and county government procurement divisions (Collier County). Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP 26001 for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the City of Long Beach's RFP HR26753 for surgical benefits management and Center of Excellence networks under a PPO plan (due October 7, 2026, targeted go-live April 1, 2027), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026, two-year initial term with extension options). Because the code's actual procurement activity diverges significantly from its clinical procedure definition, business development professionals should verify code assignment with each issuing body before pursuing opportunities.
