UNSPSC 85553078: Dilation of right 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 dilation of right 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 087X8DZ

UNSPSC 85553078 Dilation of right lacrimal duct with intraluminal device, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific ophthalmic surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged to it span independent medical evaluations for public safety pension boards, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve lacrimal duct procedures or match the code's stated scope. The mismatch appears systemic rather than incidental; the opportunities reflect health care administration and staffing procurement, not surgical procedures by code name.

No state or local government solicitations under this code engage the procedure itself or contractors qualified to perform it. The tagging of these opportunities to 85553078 appears to reflect a data-classification error in the originating procurement systems rather than genuine demand for the service the code describes. Practitioners should verify code alignment with actual work scope before pursuing opportunities tagged to this commodity.
