UNSPSC 85561737: Replacement of left external ear with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left external ear with autologous 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 09R107Z

UNSPSC 85561737 Replacement of left external ear with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent state and local opportunities posted between July and September 2026 tagged to this code include independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical procedure carve-out networks for municipal health plans (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and temporary ancillary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations involve replacement of external ear tissue using autologous tissue or any otologic surgical procedure; they reflect general medical services administration, occupational health screening, emergency medical care delivery, pharmacy administration, and temporary clinical staffing. The code's narrow surgical scope does not align with the purchasing activity currently being tagged to it in state and local markets.

The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the actual work being solicited suggests either a systematic tagging error in the jurisdiction's procurement systems or that this particular procedure is not routinely procured by state and local bodies. No recent opportunities name a specific issuing body requesting otologic tissue grafting services, surgical supplies, or related clinical consumables. Business development professionals evaluating this code should verify the accuracy of the UNSPSC assignment with purchasing offices before investing in pursuit strategy; the code as currently applied does not reflect a coherent procurement category in state and local markets.
