About UNSPSC 85552729

UNSPSC 85552729 Drainage of right lacrimal gland, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, yet the six recent opportunities posted under this classification—including independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations in Phoenix, surgical benefit carve-out management in Long Beach, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers in Washington, specialty medical services for detained youth in Harris County, pharmacy benefit management in Collier County, and temporary health professional staffing in Santa Clara County—involve no lacrimal gland drainage or related otolaryngologic surgery. The mismatch indicates a tagging error within the state and local procurement systems rather than genuine buying activity aligned with the code's nominal scope.

The breadth and geographic spread of these misclassified opportunities—spanning Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas—suggest the code may have been used as a default or administrative placeholder rather than a targeted procurement descriptor. State and local health authorities, county human resources departments, and public health systems issuing these solicitations are buying administrative and clinical staffing services, benefit management, and occupational health compliance, not surgical drainage procedures. Firms evaluating this code for business development should treat it as inactive for its stated scope and verify that any future opportunities actually involve the surgical procedure the code describes before investing response effort.
