About UNSPSC 85551492

UNSPSC 85551492 Removal of synthetic substitute from right eye, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not map meaningfully to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific ophthalmologic surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it reflect healthcare administration, benefits management, occupational health surveillance, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve removal of ocular implants or related surgical interventions. The Phoenix Retirement Office sought independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations; Long Beach requested surgical carve-out management for a Centers of Excellence network; Washington State Ferries issued an RFP for occupational medical surveillance; Harris County Juvenile Probation posted an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; Collier County solicited pharmacy benefit management; and Santa Clara Health System established a vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. None of these opportunities involve ophthalmic procedure delivery or related implant removal.

This code shows minimal alignment with state and local government procurement as currently practiced. The issuing bodies — county boards of commissioners, city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county health systems, and county probation departments — span multiple jurisdictions including Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, yet their actual buying focuses on benefits administration, healthcare logistics, and staffing coordination rather than direct medical procedures. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited suggests either a data classification error or that this particular procedure code is not actively used in state and local procurement taxonomy. No relevant opportunities warrant pursuit under this code.
