UNSPSC 85552622: Supplement right upper eyelid with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right upper eyelid with nonautologous tissue substitute, open 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 08UN0KZ

UNSPSC 85552622 Supplement right upper eyelid with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows little relevant connection to eyelid surgery. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care carve-outs for employee health plans, temporary health professional staffing, emergency medical services for detained youth, and specialty medical provider networks. The mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either misclassification by the issuing bodies or a systemic tagging error in the procurement database. None of the six recent opportunities involve ophthalmologic or reconstructive eyelid procedures.

The issuing bodies are a mix of state agencies, county governments, and municipalities: the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, the City of Long Beach, the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. Geographic activity appears concentrated in California, Florida, Arizona, and Washington, with one Texas solicitation. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services at 14 ferry locations (proposals due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP 26001 for independent medical evaluation services supporting public safety pension disability determinations with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years (proposals due October 16, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories (proposals due October 7, 2026). The code shows recent activity but does not appear to be used consistently or appropriately for its stated clinical scope.
