UNSPSC 85551902: Release right eye, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release right eye, external 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 08N0XZZ

UNSPSC 85551902 Release right eye, external approach is a Commodity code nominally tied to ophthalmic surgery, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show no direct connection to the code's stated scope. Instead, the opportunities cluster around healthcare administration and service delivery: inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical director services. None of these solicitations involve eye surgery or ophthalmology. State and local procurement offices are issuing these opportunities across diverse issuing bodies—county correctional systems (Muscogee County Prison in Georgia), county benefits administration (Collier County, Florida), county employee health plans (Monroe County, Florida), county behavioral health departments (San Mateo County, California), and municipal emergency services (Santa Monica Fire Department, California). The mix reflects health-related service contracting by counties and municipalities rather than a cohesive commodity category.

Geographic spread spans Florida, Georgia, and California, with no concentration in a single state or region. Representative recent opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 (posted April 15, 2026, due May 15, 2026) for inmate medical and pharmacy services for approximately 576 inmates at Muscogee County Prison; Collier County's RFP 25-8414 (posted April 9, 2026, due April 9, 2026) for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 7,200 enrolled employees and dependents with estimated historical pharmacy spend of $8.7 million annually; Monroe County's RFP (posted March 14, 2026, due April 16, 2026) for virtual primary care and 24/7 urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members; and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP (posted February 25, 2026, due October 16, 2025) for a medical director to oversee emergency medical services. The code shows material recent activity but does not appear to align meaningfully with ophthalmic commodities or services; business development professionals should verify correct UNSPSC coding with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities under this designation.
