UNSPSC 85562100: Structures of the ear, percutaneous approach-part B

This class includes one or more of 22 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the structures of the ear via percutaneous approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 09.

UNSPSC 85562100 Structures of the ear, percutaneous approach-part B is a Class code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code cover inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction—none of which align with otologic or percutaneous ear procedures. The code appears to be a cataloging mismatch rather than an accurate descriptor of state and local purchasing in this taxonomy family.

Activity under the code shows limited, fragmented demand across diverse issuing bodies including county consolidated governments, county boards of commissioners, and municipal fire departments in Florida, Georgia, and California. Recent solicitations include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners' RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (posted April 9, 2026), Monroe County Board of County Commissioners' RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for 2,300 county members (due April 16, 2026), San Mateo County Health's RFP 2025-007 for peer support services for peer workers (due July 2, 2025), and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP for a fire department medical director (due October 16, 2025). The wide variance in scope—from correctional healthcare to employee benefits to telehealth to mental health peer support to EMS medical direction—suggests this code is not the appropriate taxonomy classification for these procurements and indicates procurement metadata quality issues rather than coherent market activity under the stated code.
