UNSPSC 85561054: Supplement left tympanic membrane with autologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left tympanic membrane with autologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening. 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 09U877Z

UNSPSC 85561054 Supplement left tympanic membrane with autologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific otologic surgical procedure, but state and local government procurement activity under this code shows no direct alignment with the code's abstract scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for public employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, and pharmacy benefit management—involve medical administration, staffing, and benefit design rather than tympanic membrane repair or otologic surgical supplies. None of the solicitations reference tympanic membrane procedures, autologous tissue substitutes, or the specific surgical intervention the code describes.

The issuing bodies include municipal pension boards (City of Phoenix), municipal employee health benefit programs (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), county benefits consortiums (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara County). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas, with no identifiable concentration. Because the recent opportunities show no substantive connection to the code's nominal scope—otologic surgical supplies and procedures—the code appears inactive for state and local procurement purposes, or systematically mislabeled across these recent solicitations.
