UNSPSC 85561406: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right ear, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right ear, external approach. 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 09WHXKZ

UNSPSC 85561406 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right ear, external approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure on nonautologous tissue — bears no relationship to the medical and health services state and local governments are actually soliciting under this designation. The six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefits carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None involve ear tissue revision or surgical implantation procedures. The issuing bodies include a city retirement office, two mid-size cities, a county health system, a county detention department, and a state transportation agency, suggesting the code may have been assigned incorrectly by one or more procurement offices rather than representing a genuine commodity category for state and local purchasing.

No solicitation under UNSPSC 85561406 reflects the code's stated scope. Bidders pursuing this code should verify the actual commodity or service needed before investing development resources, as the code assignment appears to be a data-entry or taxonomy-mapping error rather than an indicator of active demand for surgical tissue revision services in the state and local market.
