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 08RN0JZ

UNSPSC 85552657 Replacement of right upper eyelid with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a profound mismatch between its nominal surgical-procedure scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities in the source describe occupational medical surveillance services (Washington State Ferries), independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations (Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards), surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs for municipal employee health plans (Long Beach), pharmacy benefit management administration (Collier County), temporary ancillary health professional staffing for a county health system (Santa Clara), and an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation). None of these solicitations procure surgical replacement of eyelids or any Commodity-level surgical supply or procedure.

The code exhibits minimal relevant recent activity for state and local procurement purposes. Issuing bodies—counties (Collier, Santa Clara, Harris), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), a state department (Washington State Transportation), and special-purpose boards (Phoenix pension systems)—are transacting in occupational health, benefits administration, staffing placement, and clinical service procurement, not in surgical supplies or procedures. Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, but the activities tagged under this code do not align with eyelid replacement supplies or operative services. The mismatch between the Commodity code's title and the actual work being solicited suggests either a data-tagging error in the procurement system or that this code does not meaningfully capture state and local purchasing under its stated scope. Business development professionals should verify whether this code reflects relevant activity before pursuing it as a procurement channel.
