UNSPSC 85552800: Soft tissue eyelids and lacrimal ducts, percutaneous approach-part A

This class includes one or more of 24 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the soft tissue of eyelids and lacrimal ducts with percutaneous approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 08.

UNSPSC 85552800 Soft tissue eyelids and lacrimal ducts, percutaneous approach-part A is a Class code that shows minimal relevance to recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—medical procedures on eye structures—does not align with the six recent opportunities posted under it. Those solicitations span occupational health surveillance (Washington State Ferries), disability benefit medical record review and independent medical evaluations (Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out networks (Long Beach), specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (Santa Clara County). None of these involve eyelid or lacrimal duct procedures or the percutaneous approach the code describes.

The code sees activity across multiple states and issuing-body types—state departments (Washington), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), counties (Harris, Collier, Santa Clara)—and carries no geographic concentration. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's medical surveillance RFP (proposals due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference scheduled August 31, 2026) requiring occupational medicine board certification and coverage across 14 ferry locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting public safety pension disability determinations (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 five-year term); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualified-vendor-pool solicitation for temporary health professional staffing in 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026, no guaranteed minimum volume). The code appears to be a persistent tagging mismatch rather than a live procurement category for the scope it nominally represents.
