UNSPSC 85561729: Replacement of right middle ear with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right middle ear with nonautologous tissue substitute, open 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 09R50KZ

UNSPSC 85561729 Replacement of right middle ear with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code reflect medical and healthcare services procurement — independent medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency services for youth in custody — none of which involve middle ear surgical procedures or tissue substitutes. The code appears to be a clinical-procedure taxonomy entry that state and local procurement offices have misapplied to broader health services contracting.

The six most recent opportunities in the source originate from diverse issuing bodies: a city retirement office (Phoenix), a city employee benefits office (Long Beach), a state transportation department (Washington), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), a county human resources and benefits consortium (Collier County), and a county health system (Santa Clara). These are standard public-sector healthcare buyers — benefits administrators, occupational health programs, and clinical service providers — but none procure the surgical procedure the code nominally describes. Without recent opportunities that actually involve middle ear reconstruction or tissue-substitute surgical services, the code presents no actionable signal for business development targeting state and local buyers.
