This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of Misplaced ear. Misplaced ear is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as a four digit category under code Q17. 4

UNSPSC 85409204 Diagnosis of misplaced ear is a Commodity code that shows limited alignment between its nominal title and the state and local opportunities actually being solicited under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect diagnostic imaging and clinical laboratory services — specifically Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) implementations, ultrasound equipment procurement, and phlebotomy services — rather than the specialized otologic diagnosis the code name suggests. State and local health systems and public safety agencies are the primary issuing bodies, including county hospital systems, county procurement divisions managing single-source medical equipment awards, and municipal police departments establishing clinical service contracts. The scope of work encompasses enterprise-grade health information technology (PACS with EPIC integration, data migration, and advanced visualization), point-of-care ultrasound platforms with accessories and warranty, and on-call phlebotomy services with 24/7 availability and chain-of-custody documentation.

Recent activity spans California, Florida, and New Mexico. The San Mateo County Medical Center issued an RFP on July 9, 2026, for a Diagnostic Imaging PACS system with an August 7, 2026 response deadline, requiring EPIC integration, 99.9% uptime, and successful implementation within 9–12 months; evaluation criteria weight project approach (30 points), firm qualifications (25 points), team qualifications (20 points), and price (25 points). Collier County, Florida, posted a Notice of Intent on April 1, 2026, to single-source EchoNous, Inc. for KOSMOS platform ultrasound equipment with a five-year warranty, with responses due March 26, 2026. The Albuquerque Police Department issued an RFB on January 26, 2026, for on-call phlebotomy services across Bernalillo County with 300 anticipated annual calls, 24/7 availability, and one-hour response time, with bids due February 25, 2026. The code shows sparse recent activity and appears to be a taxonomy mismatch; opportunities reflect general clinical diagnostics and laboratory services rather than the specific otologic condition the code nominally describes.
