About UNSPSC 85561429

UNSPSC 85561429 Replacement of left external ear with synthetic substitute, external approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope of prosthetic ear replacement surgery. The five opportunities posted between February and April 2026 in the source — inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical direction — represent healthcare administration, behavioral health services, and medical oversight work rather than otologic prosthetics or implantable medical devices. The mismatch between the code's specific surgical procedure designation and the actual solicitations suggests this Commodity code does not meaningfully reflect current state and local buying patterns.

The geographic jurisdictions tagging opportunities under this code span Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Muscogee County), California (San Mateo County), and California municipalities (Santa Monica), but the content of those opportunities bears no relationship to external ear prosthetics. Without active state and local demand for the service the code nominally describes, pursuit under this code is not warranted.
