UNSPSC 85552467: Destruction of left retina, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left retina, 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 085F3ZZ

UNSPSC 85552467 Destruction of left retina, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The three opportunities posted under this code—Phoenix's independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out program, and Washington State Ferries' occupational medical surveillance—bear no substantive relationship to the retinal destruction procedure the code nominally describes. A fourth opportunity, Harris County Juvenile Probation's RFI for specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, remains exploratory with no contract value or timeline specified. The mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either administrative error in coding assignment or that this Commodity code does not reflect a meaningful state and local procurement category.

The recent opportunities that are tagged under this code span multiple issuing bodies—municipal pension boards, city health benefits offices, state transportation departments, county probation systems, and county health systems—and cover benefits administration, occupational health screening, and emergency care services rather than ophthalmologic procedures. The opportunities are geographically distributed across Arizona, California, Washington, and Texas. Given the absence of retinal-procedure-related solicitations and the apparent misalignment between the code's definition and posted work, this code does not represent a viable procurement category for business development targeting state and local markets.
