UNSPSC 85553328: Removal of synthetic substitute from right extraocular muscle, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from right 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 08PL3JZ

UNSPSC 85553328 Removal of synthetic substitute from right extraocular muscle, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with the nominal scope. The opportunities instead reflect procurement of administrative medical services, occupational surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and surgical carve-out networks — none of which involve extraocular muscle surgery or ophthalmologic procedures. The code appears to be a data-classification mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local procurement offices have tagged their solicitations.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with issuing bodies including city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation agencies, and county juvenile justice departments. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services with a response date of October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services with a response date of October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System posted an RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing with a response date of October 7, 2026. Because the code's nominal scope does not reflect the work actually being purchased under it in the recent record, this code shows minimal decision relevance for business development targeting ophthalmologic surgical services or related medical device procurement.
