UNSPSC 85561545 Alteration of right external ear, external approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent relevant state and local procurement activity. The five most-recent opportunities tagged under this code—inmate medical and pharmacy services in Georgia, pharmacy benefit management in Florida, virtual primary and urgent care in Florida, peer support services in California, and fire department medical direction in California—bear no relationship to external ear alteration procedures or otologic surgery. State and local procurement offices do not appear to be soliciting this specific surgical service through the mechanisms typically tracked in state and local bid systems.

The mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the opportunities posted under it reflects a taxonomy-tagging problem rather than an active market for ear surgery contracting. If your firm pursues state and local healthcare delivery contracts—managed care, occupational health, employee benefits administration, or correctional health—those opportunities exist in volume across multiple states and are attracting significant vendor interest; however, they are not being solicited under this code.
