This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right lacrimal duct with autologous tissue substitute, 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 08RX37Z

UNSPSC 85552842 Replacement of right lacrimal duct with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose scope does not align with current state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure for lacrimal duct reconstruction, but recent solicitations tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability benefits, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which relate to lacrimal duct surgery or specialized ophthalmologic procedures. The mismatch between the code's technical definition and the work actually being solicited suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a data-structure error. State and local procurement data does not support actionable opportunity activity under this code's stated scope.

No meaningful recent opportunities exist under the code's actual subject matter. Firms pursuing ophthalmologic surgical services or lacrimal duct procedures should verify that soliciting agencies are using accurate UNSPSC codes before pursuing opportunities tagged to this classification, as the current record shows no alignment between the code definition and the medical and administrative services being procured by state, county, and local agencies in this dataset.
