UNSPSC 85553203: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left extraocular muscle, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left extraocular muscle, open 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 08WM0KZ

UNSPSC 85553203 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left extraocular muscle, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code do not involve tissue substitutes, extraocular muscle procedures, or surgical ophthalmology work. Instead, the opportunities span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty medical procedure carve-outs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. These solicitations reflect broader health and human services procurement unrelated to the tissue-substitute code name.

The mismatch between the code's technical surgical focus and the actual opportunities suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or that this Commodity code is not a primary vehicle for state and local procurement in this service area. The issuing bodies represented—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation (ferries division), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System—span state agencies, counties, and municipalities across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, but none of the work being solicited involves ophthalmic surgical procedures or tissue replacement. A vendor evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for practical procurement purposes unless the source material reflects miscoding that will be corrected in future postings.
