UNSPSC 85562300: Structures of the ear, percutaneous endoscopic 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 endoscopic 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 85562300 Structures of the ear, percutaneous endoscopic approach-part B is a Class code with no recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to its nominal scope. The code's stated description concerns otologic surgical procedures, but the recent opportunities posted under it involve inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical director services—none of which relate to ear surgery or percutaneous endoscopic procedures. This mismatch indicates either a classification error in the source data or that the code is not actively used by state and local buyers for its intended purpose.

The five recent opportunities span diverse issuing bodies—county governments (Muscogee County, Georgia; Collier County, Florida; Monroe County, Florida), a county health department (San Mateo County, California), and a municipal fire department (Santa Monica, California)—and cover healthcare administration and staffing rather than otologic supplies or services. Without aligned solicitations under this code, state and local procurement activity is not quantifiable and does not merit pursuit at this time based on the available record.
