About UNSPSC 85551245

UNSPSC 85551245 Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left eye, external approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 and tagged under this code — covering independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefits carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — involve clinical evaluation and administrative services unrelated to the ophthalmologic surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The code's narrow clinical specificity (removal of a non-biological tissue substitute from the left eye via external surgical approach) does not align with the administrative health services, staffing placement, or benefit program management work that these opportunities actually solicit.

The mismatch between the code's title and the solicited work suggests either systematic misclassification in the source data or that this code does not represent a realistic procurement category for state and local buyers. No evidence supports active state or local purchasing of the specific procedure this Commodity code names. Firms evaluating opportunities under this code should verify the actual work scope and correct UNSPSC classification directly with each issuing body rather than rely on the code tag as presented.
