About UNSPSC 85552920

UNSPSC 85552920 Drainage of right lacrimal duct with drainage device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code describing a specific ophthalmic surgical procedure, but the code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The most-recent opportunities tagged under this code do not involve lacrimal drainage procedures; instead, they cover independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs and Centers of Excellence networks, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. These procurement activities span general medical administration, employee health benefits, occupational health compliance, detention healthcare, and clinical staffing—none of which align with the narrow procedural scope of the code's nominal title.

The mismatch between the code's clinical definition and the actual work being solicited suggests either categorization error in the source data or that the code is not actively used by state and local procurement offices for substantive contracting. No state or local opportunity in the recent record solicits lacrimal drainage devices, ophthalmologic surgical supplies, or related equipment or services. The issuing bodies posting under this code include municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), large cities (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation systems (Harris County), county commissioners (Collier County), and county health systems (County of Santa Clara), but their posted work does not reflect the code's procedural designation. Without evidence of actual procurement demand aligned to the code's substance, business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for state and local contracting purposes.
