UNSPSC 85552465: Destruction of left retinal vessel, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left retinal vessel, percutaneous 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 085H3ZZ

UNSPSC 85552465, Destruction of left retinal vessel, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The six most recent state and local opportunities solicited under this code reflect healthcare administration, occupational medicine, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty surgical networks—none of which involve ophthalmic surgical procedures or vascular destruction of retinal vessels.

The mismatch suggests a cataloging error in the state and local procurement system rather than active demand for the procedure itself. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations; the City of Long Beach sought a surgical carve-out benefit program for Centers of Excellence networks; the Washington State Department of Transportation requested occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services; Collier County solicited pharmacy benefit management; and Santa Clara Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing. These solicitations are administrative healthcare procurement and staffing, not clinical procedures. The code shows little relevant recent activity for ophthalmic or retinal surgical services.
