UNSPSC 85551236: Replacement of right sclera with nonautologous tissue substitute, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right sclera with nonautologous tissue substitute, external 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 08R6XKZ

UNSPSC 85551236 Replacement of right sclera with nonautologous tissue substitute, external approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope—replacement ophthalmologic tissue. The six state and local opportunities posted between July and September 2026 that carry this code tag address independent medical evaluations for disability retirement benefits, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care networks, emergency youth detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing. None involve scleral replacement or ophthalmic surgical procedures. The code appears to have been misapplied to opportunities that fall under health benefits administration, occupational medicine, and staffing procurement rather than medical devices or tissue-substitute implantation.

The issuing bodies across the recent opportunities span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and county health systems. Geographic activity includes Washington, Arizona, Texas, Florida, and California. Because the code's nominal commodity bears no relation to the work actually being solicited under it, this code does not represent a market for scleral implant procurement in state and local government at present. Business development professionals should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged to 85551236, or consider this code dormant for state and local procurement purposes.
