UNSPSC 85553036 Replacement of right lacrimal duct with synthetic substitute, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that shows a marked mismatch between its nominal surgical-procedure scope and actual state and local procurement activity. The recent solicitations posted under this code do not reflect lacrimal duct replacement or related ophthalmologic surgical services; instead, they span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing pools, independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, and emergency medical services for detained youth. The code's tagging across these diverse medical and administrative services suggests either systematic miscoding of opportunities by state and local procurement offices or an artifact of data-collection methodology rather than genuine procurement activity tied to the code's stated procedure.

The issuing bodies include county-level health systems and administrative offices (Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County Board of Commissioners, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), state transportation and ferries agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and municipal entities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Geographic activity spans Arizona, Florida, California, Washington, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026 seeking physician-led examinations across 14 ferry locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation RFP due October 16, 2026 for disability benefit determinations ($750,000 over five years); and Santa Clara County Health System's non-exclusive temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle due October 7, 2026 covering 13 ancillary clinical categories. No relevant recent opportunities directly tied to lacrimal duct replacement or related endoscopic surgical procedures appear in the source material.
