UNSPSC 85552864: Release right lacrimal duct, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release right 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 08NX3ZZ

UNSPSC 85552864 Release right lacrimal duct, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — a specific ophthalmic surgical procedure — does not align with recent state and local procurement activity posted under this code. The five recent opportunities captured under this code instead reflect healthcare services contracting: inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county correctional facility, pharmacy benefit management services for a county employee health plan, virtual primary and urgent care services for a county health plan, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical direction. None of these solicitations involve lacrimal duct procedures or surgical services of any kind. The mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error in the state or local procurement systems that originally posted these opportunities, or a taxonomy misclassification that has routed healthcare services work to an anatomically specific surgical code.

The code shows no relevant recent activity for lacrimal duct release procedures or related ophthalmologic surgical services at the state and local level based on the available records. Firms pursuing contracts under this code should verify with individual issuing agencies whether the code designation reflects their actual procurement needs, as the posted opportunities demonstrate that state and local buyers are currently using this code to solicit general healthcare administration and service-delivery work rather than specialty surgical procedures.
