UNSPSC 85562329: Destruction of left external auditory canal, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left external auditory canal, percutaneous endoscopic 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 09544ZZ

UNSPSC 85562329 Destruction of left external auditory canal, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code for which recent state and local procurement activity shows little relevance to the code's nominal medical procedure scope. The three recent opportunities posted under this code — independent medical evaluation services for pension board disability determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees (City of Long Beach), and occupational medical surveillance for ferry system workers (Washington State Department of Transportation) — do not involve destruction of external auditory canal tissue or any related otologic procedure. A fourth opportunity from Harris County Juvenile Probation Department sought emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth without specifying procedure type. The code's tagging appears to reflect a data-entry mismatch rather than a coherent procurement category; state and local bodies are not currently soliciting surgical or endoscopic auditory procedures under this classification.

The issuing bodies posting under this code span city and county human resources and health system procurement functions (Phoenix, Long Beach, Santa Clara County Health System), state agency occupational health programs (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county juvenile justice health services (Harris County). The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, and Texas. Without a coherent set of recent opportunities aligned to the code's ostensible scope, no clear market concentration or repeat-buyer pattern emerges. Business development professionals evaluating activity under this code should verify the intended UNSPSC classification with the issuing body before pursuing opportunities tagged to it.
