About UNSPSC 85553215

UNSPSC 85553215 Supplement right extraocular muscle with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet state and local government procurement activity under this code shows minimal alignment with ophthalmic surgery and instead centers on occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, employee benefits administration, and temporary clinical staffing — functions entirely disconnected from the code's surgical descriptor.

The recent opportunities tagged under this code span diverse issuing bodies including city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county health systems, and county human resources divisions, with no clear pattern of repeat buyers or concentrated activity. The Washington State Department of Transportation issued an RFP for occupational medical surveillance services covering ferry workers across 14 locations, due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, with proposals due October 16, 2026; the County of Santa Clara Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories, with qualifications due October 7, 2026; the City of Long Beach requested proposals for a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program administered through Centers of Excellence, due October 7, 2026; and Collier County solicited pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees. The geographic footprint spans Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida with no dominant jurisdiction. The code shows no meaningful recent activity aligned with ophthalmic or extraocular muscle surgical procedures; the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual state and local procurement activity under it suggests either systematic miscoding or limited genuine procurement volume in this medical specialty at the state and local level.
