UNSPSC 85551426: Supplement right cornea with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right cornea with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous 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 08U83KZ

UNSPSC 85551426 Supplement right cornea with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal clinical scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's taxonomy label describes a specific ophthalmic surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code cover occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care-center networks, youth detention healthcare, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve corneal tissue transplantation or ophthalmologic procedures in any form. The disconnect between code name and actual solicitation content indicates that either the code has been misapplied to these opportunities or that the code itself carries little operational meaning for state and local buying offices.

The issuing bodies posting opportunities tagged under this code span county human resources divisions (Collier County, Harris County), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), city retirement boards (City of Phoenix), municipal procurement offices (City of Long Beach), and county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System). Geographic activity appears across Florida, Texas, Washington, Arizona, and California, with no clear concentration. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation soliciting occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix seeking independent disability medical evaluation services for pension boards (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The absence of any posted opportunity actually requesting corneal tissue implants or related ophthalmic surgical supplies under this code suggests that pursuing work classified here requires verification that the actual buying need matches your firm's capability, independent of the code's stated description.
