This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right lacrimal duct with drainage device, open approach.

UNSPSC 85552726 Drainage of right lacrimal duct with drainage device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with current state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code are for independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit management, pharmacy benefit administration, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve lacrimal duct drainage procedures or any surgical intervention at the anatomical level the code specifies. The mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error in the procurement systems or that the code is being applied to broader medical services categories that fall outside its intended scope.

The issuing bodies across the recent records are diverse—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and the County of Santa Clara Health System—representing city retirement boards, municipal human resources, state transportation agencies, county health and detention services, and county health systems. Geographic distribution spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. The actual work being procured—medical record review and summarization for disability determinations, occupational surveillance across ferries operations, specialty surgical carve-out networks, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing across ancillary categories—reflects health system and public employee benefit administration rather than surgical procedures. This code shows minimal or mislabeled recent activity relative to its nominal commodity definition.
