UNSPSC 85553002: Restriction of left lacrimal duct with intraluminal device, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left lacrimal duct with intraluminal device, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic. 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 08VY8DZ

UNSPSC 85553002 Restriction of left lacrimal duct with intraluminal device, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code whose nominal taxonomy label bears no relation to the state and local procurement activity actually tagged under it. Recent opportunities show no solicitations for lacrimal duct procedures or related medical devices. Instead, the code has been applied to a diverse set of health services contracts — occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record review and independent medical evaluations, surgical benefit management through centers of excellence, specialty and emergency medical care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — that have no connection to ophthalmologic or otolaryngologic device procurement. This mismatch between the code's stated scope and the work being bought suggests either data-entry errors in the issuing bodies' tagging or a systemic miscoding at the source level, rendering the code unreliable as a procurement category.

Activity is scattered across state departments, county governments, and public health systems in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, with a five-year contract maximum of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFB for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers due October 9, 2026, with a two-year initial term and optional extensions; the City of Long Beach posted an RFP for surgical benefit carve-out services due October 7, 2026; Collier County, Florida, issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services; and the County of Santa Clara Health System posted a solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary categories due October 7, 2026. Given the complete absence of recent opportunities aligned with the code's nominal device and procedure scope, pursuit under this code is not advised without clarification from the issuing body regarding actual procurement intent.
