UNSPSC 85551535: Removal of radioactive element from left eye, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of radioactive element from left eye, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic. 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 08P181Z

UNSPSC 85551535 Removal of radioactive element from left eye, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 and tagged under this code address independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-outs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, specialty and emergency medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the code's nominal scope of ophthalmologic surgical removal of radioactive material. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or that this code is not actively used in state and local procurement for its intended clinical service line.

The issuing bodies in the recent activity span diverse jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. However, none of these opportunities correspond to the UNSPSC code's described procedure. Business development professionals evaluating this code should treat it as dormant in the state and local market and verify coding classification with procurement offices before pursuing opportunities nominally assigned to it.
