UNSPSC 85901138 Binaural hearing aid assessment using audiometer is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities show minimal alignment with the code's nominal scope. The most recent solicitations under this code tag cover sign language interpreting services, special education contracted services spanning multiple disciplines (speech language pathology, occupational therapy, physical therapy, educational diagnostician, LSSP, audiology, and behavioral support), and temporary health professional staffing including audiology. While audiology services appear in several opportunities—most directly the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's bid for comprehensive audiology services at Richmond State Supported Living Center (including hearing aid services, assessment, and diagnosis) and Santa Clara County Health System's temporary health professional staffing pool for audiology—the opportunities focus on staffing, assessment, and treatment delivery rather than the specific diagnostic equipment or procedural service named in the code. The issuing bodies include independent school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa, Birdville ISD in Tarrant County, Katy ISD, Tacoma Public Schools), state health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC), county health systems (Santa Clara County), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, H-GAC).

The geographic spread centers on Texas (Richmond State Supported Living Center audiology bid, Birdville ISD, Katy ISD, Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Kilgore, H-GAC Houston-based consortium) and Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), with Washington State representation (Tacoma Public Schools) and California (Santa Clara County Health System). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas HHSC bid for audiology services at Richmond State Supported Living Center (due August 31, 2026, firm fixed-price, requiring five years' experience and Texas audiologist licensure), Hillsborough County Public Schools' RFP 26041-DST for sign language interpreting services for deaf and hard-of-hearing students across 235 schools (due April 15, 2026, estimated $950,000 annual budget), Birdville ISD's competitive sealed proposal for special education contracted services including audiology and speech language therapy (due October 21, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's multi-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing including audiology (due October 7, 2026, five-year qualified list with no guaranteed work). The code shows persistent tagging of audiology and hearing-related services alongside broader special education contracting but limited activity specific to binaural hearing aid assessment instrumentation or procedural diagnostics.
