UNSPSC 85552945: Bypass left lacrimal duct to nasal cavity, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left lacrimal duct to nasal cavity, 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 081Y3Z3

UNSPSC 85552945 Bypass left lacrimal duct to nasal cavity, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity posted under it. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities solicited under this code cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out benefit programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve lacrimal duct procedures or related ophthalmologic surgery. This represents a significant taxonomy mismatch between the code's intended scope and what state and local governments are actually buying under this classification.

The recent opportunities posted under UNSPSC 85552945 span issuing bodies including state health departments, county human services and health systems, municipal retirement offices, and independent school districts across Arizona, Washington, Florida, California, and Texas. Representative solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting public safety pension disability determinations (due October 16, 2026, approximately $750,000 over five years), Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026, approximately $8.7 million annually in historical spend), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code shows limited relevance to the lacrimal duct procedure named in its descriptor and warrants code validation before pursuing opportunities posted under it.
