This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of right upper eyelid, 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 085N3ZZ

UNSPSC 85552944 Destruction of right upper eyelid, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are buying under this taxonomy entry. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out administration, emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve ophthalmic surgical procedures. The code shows a significant taxonomy mismatch, with state and local issuing bodies (city retirement offices, counties, state transportation departments, and county health systems) using the code as a catch-all for general medical services procurement rather than for the specific eyelid destruction procedure the code nominally describes.

The recent solicitations posted under this code originate from Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas jurisdictions, with no geographic concentration. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office requesting independent medical evaluation services (RFP RTMRFP26001, responses due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the City of Long Beach seeking a surgical benefit carve-out program (RFP HR26753, responses due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation soliciting occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations (RFP RFP20260825, responses due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issuing an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (RFI 071626BNM, responses due September 25, 2026), and Collier County requesting pharmacy benefit management services (RFP 25-8414, responses due April 9, 2026, approximately $8.7 million annually). The code's use for broad healthcare administration and clinical staffing procurement rather than surgical procedures indicates either systematic miscoding or an archived taxonomy entry with limited current relevance to ophthalmic surgery contracting.
