UNSPSC 85561644 Supplement left middle ear with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—surgical implantation of middle-ear prostheses—bears no meaningful connection to the state and local procurement activity tagged under it in recent months. The recent opportunities show no surgical supply, implant, or otological device procurement; instead, they document comprehensive healthcare administration contracts including inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care, peer support staffing, and fire department medical direction. This code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated commodity definition.

The five recent state and local opportunities span diverse issuing bodies—the Columbus Consolidated Government (Muscogee County Prison), Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Monroe County Board of County Commissioners, San Mateo County Health, and the Santa Monica Fire Department—across Georgia and Florida with one California record. The largest, most operationally specific opportunity is the Muscogee County Prison RFP (due May 15, 2026) for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at approximately $95,537.71 monthly under an existing CorrectHealth Companies LLC contract. None of these procurements involve otological or surgical implant procurement. The mismatch between code nomenclature and actual buying signals that vendors in ear, nose, and throat surgical supplies or implants should not rely on this code to surface relevant state and local opportunities.
