About UNSPSC 85552422

UNSPSC 85552422 Replacement of right retinal vessel with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical procedure carve-out benefits, and youth detention medical services — none of which involve ophthalmologic surgical procedures, retinal vessel replacement, tissue substitutes, or percutaneous vascular interventions. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical technique that does not appear in any of the recent solicitations, and state and local procurement offices do not routinely purchase individual surgical procedures as standalone goods or services through open competition.

The issuing bodies in the sample are county health systems (Santa Clara), county human resources and benefits divisions (Collier County, Long Beach), county probation departments (Harris County), state transportation agencies (Washington Department of Transportation), and city retirement offices (Phoenix). Geographic activity spans California, Florida, Arizona, and Washington, with no clustering pattern evident. This code should be marked as inactive for state and local procurement purposes; the mismatch between the code's clinical descriptor and the operational medical services actually being solicited suggests systematic tagging error rather than a viable market segment for vendors in this field.
