UNSPSC 85551462: Replacement of right choroid with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right choroid 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 08RA37Z

UNSPSC 85551462 Replacement of right choroid with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — a specific ophthalmic surgical procedure — does not match the work actually appearing in recent solicitations posted under this code. Recent opportunities tagged to this Commodity instead reflect general health services procurement across occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgery benefit programs, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, and emergency/specialty care for youth in custody. None of these activities involve replacement of choroid tissue or align with the code's clinical procedure name.

The mismatch indicates either a systematic tagging error in the source data or that this Commodity code is not actively used by state and local procurement offices for the services they are actually buying. State and local health-related solicitation activity concentrates instead on administrative benefits management, occupational health compliance, staffing pools, and evaluation services rather than discrete surgical procedures. Buyers in this market segment — including the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County — are procuring health program administration and workforce support rather than procedure-specific medical services. The code itself does not reflect current purchasing patterns under its nominal scope.
