UNSPSC 85901000: Cochlear implant-treatment

This class includes one or more of multiple standard physical rehabilitation interventions or procedures related to cochlear implant treatment. These 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 F0B.

UNSPSC 85901000 Cochlear implant-treatment, a Class code, encompasses the surgical implantation of cochlear devices and related audiological services for hearing restoration in state and local health systems, predominantly school districts serving deaf and hard-of-hearing students and state health departments funding treatment for eligible populations. The scope includes the implant devices themselves, pre-operative and post-operative audiology services, device programming and calibration, speech and language pathology support, and follow-up care to establish and maintain hearing function. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state departments of health and education, county health agencies, and independent school districts with special-education or audiology programs.

The recent-opportunities block contains no entries for this code, indicating minimal or no detectable state and local procurement activity currently posted under UNSPSC 85901000. The absence of recent solicitations suggests either that cochlear implant services are sourced through established medical provider networks or health insurance plans rather than through traditional RFP or ITB channels, or that jurisdictions tag such services under alternative UNSPSC codes related to audiology services, medical device procurement, or healthcare contracting vehicles not reflected in current postings.
