UNSPSC 85561736: Replacement of left external ear with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left external ear with synthetic 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 09R10JZ

UNSPSC 85561736 Replacement of left external ear with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure for ear reconstruction—does not align with any of the recent opportunities tagged under it. The six most recent state and local solicitations posted under this code actually solicit independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit administration, occupational medical surveillance, emergency healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these procurements involve ear prosthetics, implants, or reconstructive surgical devices.

This mismatch indicates either a data classification error in the source material or use of an incorrect UNSPSC code in the solicitations themselves. State and local procurement offices occasionally tag opportunities with codes that do not match the actual goods or services being bought. For business development purposes, this code warrants monitoring for corrected or properly classified opportunities, but the current posting history offers no actionable signals for firms in medical device manufacturing, prosthetics supply, or surgical implant distribution. If activity does emerge under this code in future cycles, it would likely reflect demand from state health departments, county health systems, or municipal hospitals for ear prosthetics or related reconstructive supplies.
