UNSPSC 85561814 Inspection of right ear, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code appears designed to classify a specific otolaryngologic procedure, but the six recent state and local opportunities posted between July and September 2026 and tagged under this code concern disability benefit medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational health surveillance, youth detention medical services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve ear inspection or otolaryngologic procedures. The mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscategorization in the sourcing system or the code's continued disuse in state and local procurement.

The opportunities solicited under this code span Arizona, California, Washington, and Texas jurisdictions, including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP for independent medical evaluation services, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach (RFP for surgical benefit carve-out, due October 7, 2026), Washington State Department of Transportation (RFP for occupational medical surveillance, due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (RFI for specialty and emergency medical services, due September 25, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (RFP for pharmacy benefit management, due April 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System (RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing, due October 7, 2026). These solicitations reflect diverse issuing bodies—municipal and county benefits offices, state transportation agencies, juvenile justice departments, and public health systems—but none involve the otolaryngologic inspection work the code nominally describes.
