UNSPSC 85552612 Supplement right lacrimal duct with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code tagged to health-care and medical procedure services. The recent opportunities posted under this code show little connection to the code's nominal scope—a surgical procedure on the lacrimal duct. Instead, state and local buyers soliciting under this code are procuring occupational and disability medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension benefit determinations, Centers of Excellence networks for elective surgical procedures, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency services for youth in detention. The actual work being bought is administrative medical support, occupational health screening, specialty surgical care coordination, and healthcare staffing—operational and benefits-administration functions rather than lacrimal duct augmentation. The issuing bodies are cities, county governments, and state departments, spanning Phoenix, Long Beach, Washington State, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County, indicating fragmented municipal and county purchasing with no dominant repeat buyer in the recent record.

The geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office issuing an RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services to support disability pension determinations for fire and police personnel, with proposals due October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation soliciting occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system employees across 14 locations statewide (RFP20260825), with proposals due October 9, 2026; and Santa Clara County Health System establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing in audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, and related clinical support categories (RFSQHHSFY270052), with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code's assignment to these opportunities appears to reflect broad medical-services classification rather than specificity to the documented procedure.
