UNSPSC 85561059: Supplement right tympanic membrane with synthetic substitute, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right tympanic membrane with synthetic 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 09U77JZ

UNSPSC 85561059 Supplement right tympanic membrane with synthetic substitute, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—surgical tympanic membrane replacement—does not align with the state and local opportunities currently posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged to this code span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, pension disability evaluations, specialty surgery networks, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these opportunities involve tympanic membrane procedures or otologic surgery. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity for firms pursuing state and local medical device or surgical-procedure contracts in its stated domain.

The six most recent opportunities posted under this code across August and September 2026 originate from diverse issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California)—and collectively represent healthcare administration, occupational medicine, and staffing procurement rather than implant or surgical supply. The mismatch between the code's clinical definition and the procurement activity it currently indexes suggests either a cataloging error in the source jurisdiction's tagging systems or that the code has been repurposed in practice. Firms focused on ENT surgical implants, synthetic membrane materials, or otologic procedure support should not rely on this code's recent activity as a signal of relevant demand and should verify actual scope during intake or due-diligence processes before pursuing opportunities tagged to it.
