UNSPSC 85552801: Restriction of left lacrimal duct, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left lacrimal duct, percutaneous 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 08VY3ZZ

UNSPSC 85552801 Restriction of left lacrimal duct, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code representing a specific medical procedure; however, the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not align with the nominal code scope. The three opportunities that mention the code reflect actual demand for occupational medical surveillance, employee health benefit administration, disability medical evaluations, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve lacrimal duct procedures. This mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error in the procurement system or mission creep in how the code is being applied by issuing bodies, making the code itself an unreliable signal for vendors pursuing state and local work in this clinical domain.

The opportunities present do cluster around employee and public-safety health services: the Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals with baseline and periodic examinations by board-certified occupational physicians (RFP20260825, responses due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office requested disability medical record summary and independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension applicants (RTMRFP26001, responses due October 16, 2026 at $750,000 over five years); the County of Santa Clara Health System posted a non-exclusive multiple-award staffing pool for temporary ancillary health professionals including audiology, diagnostic imaging, and surgical services (RFSQHHSFY270052, responses due October 7, 2026); and the City of Long Beach solicited Centers of Excellence network management for specialty surgical procedures under an employee PPO carve-out program (HR26753, responses due October 7, 2026). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, and Washington, with no repeat jurisdictions across the block. Given the code-to-opportunity mismatch, pursuit of this code by business development teams should be treated with caution until the underlying tagging methodology is clarified or corrected.
