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 08VX0ZZ

UNSPSC 85552604 Restriction of right lacrimal duct, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure — a medical protocol for restricting the right lacrimal (tear) duct via open surgical approach — yet the recent opportunities posted under this code do not align with that clinical scope. Instead, the state and local solicitations tagged with this code request independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs. These represent administrative and operational healthcare procurement rather than the elective or corrective ophthalmologic procedure the code name indicates. The mismatch suggests either a categorization error in how issuing bodies have tagged these opportunities within their procurement systems or a significant drift between the code's intended scope and current state and local usage.

The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies including retirement boards (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), cities (City of Long Beach), and state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation). Geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the Phoenix Fire Pension Board and Phoenix Police Pension Board RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, proposals due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferries locations (RFP20260825, proposals due October 9, 2026), and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees (RFP 25-8414, proposals due April 9, 2026). Because the code's nominal procedure and the actual work solicited diverge substantially, state and local procurement activity under this code does not constitute a meaningful business development opportunity in the clinical procedure space the code names.
