UNSPSC 85562118: Excision of left eustachian tube, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left eustachian tube, percutaneous 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 09BG3ZZ

UNSPSC 85562118 Excision of left eustachian tube, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities associated with this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employee health plans, virtual primary and urgent care services for county members, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve surgical procedures or eustachian tube intervention. The code's nominal scope (a specific surgical procedure) bears no meaningful relationship to the healthcare administration, benefits management, and occupational support services actually being solicited. State and local governments are using this code to tag comprehensive healthcare contracting across county detention facilities, employee health benefits, virtual care platforms, and behavioral health infrastructure, suggesting either a systematic miscoding or a fundamental mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how issuing bodies are classifying healthcare procurement.

The issuing bodies span county governments and municipal agencies: Muscogee County (Georgia) detention, Collier County (Florida) human resources and benefits, Monroe County (Florida) employee health, San Mateo County (California) behavioral health, and Santa Monica Fire Department (California). Geographic activity concentrates in Florida and California, with secondary presence in Georgia. Representative recent opportunities include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 (due May 15, 2026) for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison covering 576 inmates; Collier County's RFP 25-8414 (due April 9, 2026) for pharmacy benefit management serving approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual spending near $8.7 million; and Monroe County's RFP (due April 16, 2026) for virtual primary care and 24/7 urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members. This code shows recent activity but little relevance to the UNSPSC category name — vendors pursuing these opportunities should rely on concrete scope documentation rather than the surgical-procedure taxonomy label.
