UNSPSC 85553058: Extirpation of matter from left lacrimal duct, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from left lacrimal duct, via natural or artificial opening. 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 08CY7ZZ

UNSPSC 85553058 Extirpation of matter from left lacrimal duct, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal medical procedure scope. The six recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing qualification pools, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, and emergency specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which involve lacrimal duct procedures. The code's abstract clinical descriptor does not align with what state and local governments are actually buying under this classification in current procurement activity.

The issuing bodies include a state agency (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and government commissions (Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and city retirement and benefits offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). The geographic spread spans California, Arizona, Florida, Washington, and Texas, with no standout clustering or repeat activity within the code. Given the categorical mismatch between the code's procedural definition and the actual goods or services being procured, this code warrants close examination before pursuit — the tagging may reflect a data-entry error in the state or local procurement system, or the code may be used as a default placeholder for health services that do not fit more precise codes.
