UNSPSC 85552900: Soft tissue eyelids and lacrimal ducts, percutaneous approach-part B

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 85552900 Soft tissue eyelids and lacrimal ducts, percutaneous approach-part B is a Class code that shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its medical procedure scope. The six most recent opportunities posted under this code — spanning Phoenix, Long Beach, Washington State, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County between July and September 2026 — include independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. None of these solicitations address eyelid or lacrimal duct procedures or related ophthalmologic interventions; the code appears to have been applied as a catch-all medical services classification rather than for the specific surgical or percutaneous intervention it nominally describes.

The issuing bodies span state health agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of the Washington State Ferries), county government (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), and city government (Phoenix and Long Beach). The geographic spread covers Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. Activity reflects broader state and local healthcare administration, benefits management, and occupational health contracting rather than specialized ophthalmologic surgery or lacrimal procedures. Firms evaluating this code should assess whether the mismatch between its nominal scope and actual recent procurement signals either a data-coding error in state and local systems or a dormant category unsuited to current pursuit.
