UNSPSC 85561254: Destruction of left tympanic membrane, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left 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 09587ZZ

UNSPSC 85561254 Destruction of left tympanic membrane, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code showing no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal medical procedure scope. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington involve occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-outs, and juvenile detention healthcare—none of which constitutes tympanic membrane destruction or otologic intervention. The code appears to be a mismatch with the actual work state and local governments are currently soliciting under this UNSPSC designation.

If activity under this code does materialize in state and local procurement, it would likely emerge from school districts, transit authorities, or corrections departments procuring occupational health or inmate medical services where audiological or ENT procedures are incidental to broader healthcare contracting. However, the current record provides no basis for characterizing issuing-body patterns, geographic concentration, or representative opportunities aligned with the code's stated scope. Firms evaluating this code should verify procurement office classification practices and monitor for reclassification or corrected tagging, as the present opportunities suggest systemic miscoding rather than an active market.
