UNSPSC 85681748 Extirpation of matter from left lacrimal bone, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a surgical procedure targeting the lacrimal bone—does not align with the medical and health services state and local governments are actually buying under this tag. Recent solicitations posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services for pension board disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these opportunities involve lacrimal bone surgery or related otolaryngologic or ophthalmologic procedures. The mismatch suggests the code was applied broadly to capture health services procurement rather than as a precise commodity match.

The issuing bodies across these records include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health plans (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county human resources and health systems (Collier County, Santa Clara County), and regional health systems. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, maximum $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code's current tagging appears to reflect broad health services purchasing rather than the specific surgical procedure its name denotes.
