UNSPSC 85551357 Removal of intraluminal device from right eye, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The medical device removal procedure described in the code name does not match the nature of recent opportunities posted under this classification.

The six most recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), disability benefit medical evaluations and record review (City of Phoenix), surgical benefits carve-out program administration (City of Long Beach), emergency and specialty medical services for youth in detention (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing pools (County of Santa Clara). None of these solicitations procurement medical device removal, ophthalmologic procedures, or intraluminal interventions. The coding mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding of healthcare administrative and staffing services under a clinical procedure code, or use of this UNSPSC number as a default placeholder in a healthcare procurement taxonomy system. Firms targeting this code should verify actual opportunities through direct search of individual jurisdiction procurement portals rather than relying on this code as a purchasing signal for ophthalmic device services.
