UNSPSC 85561600: Structures of the ear, open approach-part A

This class includes one or more of 22 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the structures of the ear via open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 09.

UNSPSC 85561600 Structures of the ear, open approach-part A is a Class code that shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal medical specialty scope. The five most recent opportunities posted under this code—inmate medical and pharmacy services (Muscogee County Prison), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), virtual primary and urgent care (Monroe County), peer support for peer workers (San Mateo County), and a fire department medical director contract (Santa Monica)—are entirely unrelated to otologic surgical procedures or ear-structure interventions. The code appears to be a taxonomy mismatch rather than a live procurement category for state and local work.

No relevant opportunities are present in the recent solicitation record for this code. Buyers evaluating pursuit decisions under UNSPSC 85561600 should expect no matching state and local RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB activity in the near term and should verify the correct code assignment with issuing bodies before pursuing related medical or surgical service contracts.
