This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of left external ear with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 09014KZ

UNSPSC 85562338 Alteration of left external ear with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's medical procedure description does not align with the work state and local governments are actually soliciting. Recent opportunities tagged to this code address occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical center-of-excellence networks, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve ear alteration procedures or the specific surgical methodology the code names. This appears to be a taxonomic mismatch between the code and the actual procurements it has been assigned.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities span state departments, counties, and municipal health systems: the Washington State Department of Transportation (ferries division), Collier County in Florida, Harris County in Texas, the City of Phoenix, the City of Long Beach, and the County of Santa Clara in California. Geographic activity is concentrated in the West and South, with recent solicitations posted between July and September 2026 and response dates clustering in early October 2026. Without a clear commodity match, firms considering pursuit under this code should verify the actual scope against state and local opportunities before allocating business development resources.
