UNSPSC 85553329: Removal of autologous tissue substitute from right extraocular muscle, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of autologous tissue 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 08PL37Z

UNSPSC 85553329 Removal of autologous tissue substitute from right extraocular muscle, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure — removal of autologous tissue from an extraocular muscle using a percutaneous approach — but the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect general health services procurement (medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical carve-out benefit programs) that do not align with the narrow procedural scope of the code itself. This mismatch suggests either a misclassification in the source data or that the code is not actively used by state and local procurement offices for substantive solicitations.

No state and local solicitations target procurement of the specific service named in UNSPSC 85553329. State and local governments do not typically issue competitive solicitations for individual surgical procedures; instead, they procure surgical services through health plan administration, hospital network contracts, and employee benefit plan management, which are classified under different UNSPSC families. A business development professional evaluating this code should verify the actual commodity classification of any targeted opportunity before pursuing, as the nominal code scope does not reflect the types of work or vendor qualifications being solicited by state or local health systems and benefits administrators in practice.
