UNSPSC 85682163: Excision of right lacrimal bone, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right lacrimal bone, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0NBH4ZZ

UNSPSC 85682163 Excision of right lacrimal bone, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a surgical procedure to remove lacrimal bone tissue—does not match the work actually being solicited in the recent opportunities tagged to it. The most recent state and local opportunities posted under this code instead cover independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgery benefit carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services—none of which involve lacrimal bone excision or are orthogonal to the code's clinical specificity. This mismatch suggests either systematic misclassification of medical procurement in the jurisdictions posting these solicitations or a data-tagging error in the source system.

The issuing bodies include major municipal retirement systems (City of Phoenix), large cities (Long Beach, Seattle via WSDOT), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and regional public entities. The recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no single state dominating the sample. Given the divergence between the code's stated scope and the actual work being bought, the code does not appear to be an active vehicle for state and local procurement of lacrimal bone surgical services or related clinical outcomes. Prospective vendors should verify code assignment with individual procuring bodies before pursuing opportunities listed under this classification.
