This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of autologous tissue substitute in right ear, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic. 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 09WH87Z

UNSPSC 85561014 Revision of autologous tissue substitute in right ear, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure on ear tissue, yet the six most recent opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve tissue revision or otologic procedures. The issuing bodies include a municipal retirement office (City of Phoenix), two cities managing employee benefit programs (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), and a county board of commissioners (Collier County). This breadth and the categorical disconnect suggest the code may be incorrectly tagged in the procurement system or applied as a generic placeholder for medical services rather than reflecting actual tissue-substitute procurement.

Recent opportunities show activity across Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida, with no clear geographic concentration. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for disability determinations under Arizona's Public Safety Personnel Retirement System, with a five-year contract ceiling of $750,000. The City of Long Beach issued an RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) offering Centers of Excellence networks for orthopedic, cardiac, and other specialty procedures. The Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) for ferry system workers across 14 Washington locations. The absence of tissue-substitute or otologic-procedure solicitations under this code indicates limited relevance to vendors in that clinical space and suggests pursuing opportunities here requires mapping to the broader medical-services category rather than the code's narrow procedural title.
