UNSPSC 85561130: Removal of synthetic substitute from left ear, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from left 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 09PJ8JZ

UNSPSC 85561130 Removal of synthetic substitute from left ear, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure on the ear, but state and local procurement solicitations tagged under this code do not address ear surgery. Instead, the recent opportunities under this code involve occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefits management, specialty surgical networks for broader populations, temporary clinical staffing, and detention-facility medical services—none of which align with otologic procedural removal. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the source data or a category alignment issue within the state and local procurement system.

The issuing bodies posting under this code span state health agencies, county human resources and health systems, city retirement offices, and independent school districts across multiple states including Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida. However, because the recent opportunities do not describe ear surgery or related otologic work, the code does not present a coherent procurement market for vendors specialized in the procedure named. State and local governments do not appear to be soliciting ear-surgery services under this code at present, making it unsuitable as a pursuit target for firms focused on that clinical specialty.
