UNSPSC 85553317: Resection of left extraocular muscle, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of left extraocular muscle, percutaneous 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 08TM3ZZ

UNSPSC 85553317 Resection of left extraocular muscle, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal clinical procedure scope and the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this code. Recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not target surgical eye-muscle procedures; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, health plan administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and emergency medical care for detained youth. The issuing bodies include county commissioners' offices, city retirement systems, state transportation departments, county health systems, county juvenile justice departments, and county human resources divisions. The divergence between the code's stated clinical procedure and the actual procurement activity suggests either a cataloging mismatch in state and local procurement systems or a systematic miscoding of health services at the commodity level.

Geographic activity spans Washington State, Arizona, California, and Texas across the handful of recent opportunities. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for Washington State Ferries personnel across 14 regional locations, with proposals due October 9, 2026 (RFP20260825); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations, with proposals due October 16, 2026 (RTMRFP26001); the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories, with proposals due October 7, 2026 (RFSQHHSFY270052); and the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence, with proposals due October 7, 2026 (HR26753). Bidders should verify code alignment against their service lines before pursuing opportunities posted under this commodity code, as the mismatch may reflect data-quality issues rather than genuine procurement demand for ophthalmic surgical procedures.
