This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left retinal vessel with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach.

UNSPSC 85552401 Supplement left retinal vessel with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical ophthalmology procedure, but the six most recent opportunities posted under this code do not match that clinical description. Instead, the tagged opportunities cover independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out networks, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve retinal vessel supplementation or nonautologous tissue substitutes.

The geographic spread across recent opportunities includes Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with issuing bodies spanning municipal retirement offices, county human resources and health systems, state transportation agencies, and juvenile probation departments. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) valued at up to $750,000 over five years, the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit management through Centers of Excellence (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). The misalignment between the code's clinical specificity and the actual work being purchased suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a data error in the taxonomy assignment and warrants verification before pursuing opportunities under this code.
