UNSPSC 85551453: Replacement of left iris with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left iris with autologous 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 08RD37Z

UNSPSC 85551453 Replacement of left iris with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal medical procedure scope. The six most recent opportunities posted under or near this code—spanning July through September 2026—address occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty medical services for youth in custody, and emergency inpatient care; none involve replacement of iris tissue or comparable ophthalmologic surgical procedures. The mismatch suggests either a coding artifact in the source data or that the UNSPSC taxonomy has not been updated to reflect recent procurement activity.

State and local jurisdictions posting under this code segment include the Washington State Department of Transportation (Washington State Ferries), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, Collier County (Florida), the County of Santa Clara Health System (California), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas). The geographic spread covers Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas, with no standout concentration. Representative recent activity includes the Washington State Department of Transportation soliciting occupational medical surveillance services via RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office requesting independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations via RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026). Given the absence of procurement activity matching the code's stated medical procedure, a firm evaluating this code should verify the UNSPSC classification directly with prospective issuing bodies before investing in pursuit strategy.
