This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left retina with autologous tissue substitute, open 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 08UF07Z

UNSPSC 85552309 Supplement left retina with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect recent state and local government procurement activity. The code describes a surgical ophthalmology procedure using autologous tissue, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span correctional facility medical services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve retinal surgery or tissue transplantation. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual solicitations suggests either classification error in the underlying source data or a systematic tagging issue that disconnects the code from its intended use in state and local procurement.

The five recent opportunities identified across four states (Georgia, Florida, and California) represent general healthcare administration and medical management contracts rather than ophthalmologic or surgical services. Columbus Consolidated Government (Muscogee County, Georgia) solicited inmate medical and pharmacy services via RFP due May 15, 2026; Collier County (Florida) sought Pharmacy Benefit Management Services with an RFP deadline of April 9, 2026 and historical annual spend of approximately $8.7 million; Monroe County (Florida) issued an RFP for Virtual Primary and Urgent Care Services due April 16, 2026; San Mateo County (California) posted an RFP for Mental Health Services Act peer support due July 2, 2025; and the Santa Monica Fire Department (California) sought a Fire Department Medical Director via RFP due October 16, 2025. Because these opportunities bear no substantive relationship to the code's titled procedure, the code shows little relevant recent activity for firms pursuing retinal surgery or ophthalmologic tissue-replacement work in state and local markets.
