This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right choroid with nonautologous tissue substitute, open 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 08RA0KZ

UNSPSC 85551336 Replacement of right choroid with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code's clinical medical procedure designation does not match the recent solicitations tagged under it, which span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and youth detention healthcare — none involving choroid replacement or similar ophthalmologic implant procedures. The issuing bodies are diverse: city retirement offices (Phoenix), county health systems and probation departments (Santa Clara, Harris County, Collier County), city employee benefits programs (Long Beach), and state transportation authorities (Washington State Ferries). No repeat buyers appear across the recent opportunities.

The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no single state dominating the recent activity. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, approximately $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's request for a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive multiple-award structure). The code as currently tagged appears misapplied to these opportunities and provides little actionable signal for vendors in ophthalmology or ophthalmologic implant supply chains.
