This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release right tympanic membrane, 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 09N77ZZ

UNSPSC 85561204 Release right tympanic membrane, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent relevant procurement activity under state and local solicitations. The code's clinical procedure scope does not align with the healthcare, pharmacy, and human services contracts currently posted by state and local jurisdictions. The recent opportunities surfaced under this code—inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction—represent administrative healthcare procurement, benefits management, and employee wellness services rather than otologic surgical procedures or tympanic membrane interventions.

No state or local government procurement bodies have issued recent solicitations specifically for tympanic membrane release procedures as a standalone service or supply. The code appears inactive or rarely used in state and local procurement taxonomy, suggesting either that such services are procured at the federal level (through Veterans Health Administration or Department of Defense channels), bundled within larger surgical service contracts coded differently, or delivered through existing provider network agreements that do not trigger separate RFPs. Firms pursuing clinical procedure-specific work should verify whether their target jurisdictions use alternative UNSPSC family or class codes for surgical services, validate whether procurement occurs through health plan master agreements rather than discrete procedure solicitations, or assess whether demand is concentrated in federal healthcare systems rather than state and local public bodies.
