UNSPSC 85552560 Drainage of left upper eyelid with drainage device, external approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope—a specific ophthalmologic surgical procedure—and the actual state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted against this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty medical services for detained youth, and emergency inpatient care. None of these solicitations involve eyelid drainage procedures or any comparable surgical intervention. The code captures minimal relevant procurement activity aligned with its stated clinical scope.

Recent postings under this code originate from Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara Health System), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation/Ferries), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), reflecting geographic spread across the West and South. Issuing bodies include a city retirement office, a municipal human resources department, a state transportation agency, a county probation department, and a county health system. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award qualification pool for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across fourteen ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). The code's tagging appears to reflect administrative classification error rather than procurement intent targeting ophthalmologic surgical services.
