UNSPSC 85561112: Replacement of left tympanic membrane with nonautologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left tympanic membrane with nonautologous 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 09R87KZ

UNSPSC 85561112 Replacement of left tympanic membrane with nonautologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code showing minimal relevant state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities tagged to this code span medical evaluation services, surgical carve-out benefits, occupational health surveillance, juvenile detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve tympanic membrane replacement procedures or otologic implant services. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure using tissue substitutes — does not align with what state and local buyers are actually soliciting under this classification, suggesting either systematic miscoding in the source opportunities or dormant demand for this particular procedure-level commodity in the public sector contracting market.

The issuing bodies represented include a municipal retirement office (City of Phoenix), a city employee benefits program (City of Long Beach), a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation), a county juvenile justice department (Harris County), a county government benefits consortium (Collier County), and a county health system (Santa Clara). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida, but the opportunities document workforce health services, benefits administration, and occupational medicine rather than surgical procedures. No response dates support opportunities directly under the tympanic membrane replacement code itself. Given the demonstrated mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent procurement, this code warrants monitoring for procedural demand signals or recoding activity rather than immediate pursuit based on current market evidence.
