UNSPSC 85561022 Revision of hearing device in left inner ear, via natural or artificial opening (Commodity) does not correspond to the scope of work actually being solicited under this code in recent state and local procurement. The six recent opportunities tagged to this code cover independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, surgical care carve-out benefit administration, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve hearing device revision or otologic procedures. This code shows no relevant recent activity at the state or local level.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the opportunities posted suggests a classification error in the source data. State and local procurement professionals evaluating this code for business development should treat the recent-opportunity block as unreliable for strategy and focus instead on direct market outreach to audiology departments, otolaryngology clinics, and health systems known to procure hearing device services and related clinical procedures.
