UNSPSC 85561938: Bypass left inner ear to endolymphatic with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left inner ear to endolymphatic 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 091E0K0

UNSPSC 85561938 Bypass left inner ear to endolymphatic with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific otologic surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it address occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employee plans, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and pediatric detention healthcare services — none of which align with the procedure named in the code. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the underlying procurement system or that the code taxonomy does not capture the actual scope of health services and medical administration work being solicited.

No state and local solicitations addressing ear surgery, otologic procedures, or endolymphatic interventions appear in the recent-opportunities block. The Phoenix Retirement Office RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) seeks independent medical evaluation services for disability pension applications; the City of Long Beach RFP (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) covers surgical procedure carve-outs through Centers of Excellence networks; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) procures occupational medical surveillance for ferry system employees; Collier County issued an RFP (25-8414) for pharmacy benefit management; the County of Santa Clara Health System solicited temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026); and Harris County Juvenile Probation posted an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth. None of these opportunities involve otologic surgery or the specific procedure the code describes. Procurement professionals evaluating this code should verify whether the code has been applied in error or whether state and local medical and surgical taxonomy has diverged from standard UNSPSC structure.
