UNSPSC 85551474: Replacement of right eye with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right eye 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 08R037Z

UNSPSC 85551474 Replacement of right eye with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its abstract medical-procedure title and the state and local opportunities currently tagged under it. The recent solicitations posted under this code involve occupational medical surveillance, pension-board disability evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, Centers of Excellence surgical networks, temporary health-professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare—none of which involve ophthalmic surgical procedures or tissue substitution. State and local buyers are instead using this code to tag general medical services, health-plan administration, and occupational health programs. The issuing bodies span multiple jurisdictions: Arizona pension boards, California cities, Washington state transportation, Texas county juvenile systems, Florida county human resources, and California county health systems. This code appears to capture a broad range of health-service contracting rather than the specific surgical intervention its nominal title suggests.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in the Southwest and Pacific regions, with recent postings from Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) to support disability determinations for approximately 75 annual applications at $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington ferry locations (due October 9, 2026, pre-bid August 31, 2026); the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical-benefit carve-out programs for its Anthem PPO plan (due October 7, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualified-vendor solicitation for temporary health-professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code shows no strong operational focus or repeated buyer pattern; treat it as a misclassification vehicle for state and local health-services procurement rather than a reliable indicator of surgical-implant or ophthalmologic-specialty demand.
