This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right auditory ossicle, 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 09B90ZZ

UNSPSC 85561846 Excision of right auditory ossicle, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure on the auditory system, but the most recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it reflect broader healthcare service procurement — inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction — none of which align with procurement of auditory ossicle excision procedures or related surgical services. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests the code is either misapplied by issuing bodies in their RFP tagging or used as a catch-all placeholder for healthcare service categories that lack more precise UNSPSC alignment.

Issuing bodies soliciting work under this code include county governments (Muscogee County in Georgia, Collier County in Florida, Monroe County in Florida, and San Mateo County in California) and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica Fire Department in California), spanning corrections healthcare administration, county employee health benefits, virtual care platforms, mental health services, and EMS medical direction. Geographic activity is concentrated in Florida and California, with isolated activity in Georgia and California. Representative recent opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (RFP posted April 15, 2026, proposals due May 15, 2026, current monthly cost $95,537.71 under existing contract with CorrectHealth Companies LLC); Collier County Board of County Commissioners RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (RFP posted April 9, 2026, due April 9, 2026, historical pharmacy spending approximately $8.7 million annually); and Monroe County Board of County Commissioners RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members (RFP posted March 14, 2026, proposals due April 16, 2026, award anticipated June 10, 2026, effective October 1, 2026). The code's current activity does not map cleanly to state and local surgical services procurement.
