UNSPSC 85901147 Monaural hearing aid assessment using audiometer is a Commodity code that in recent state and local practice encompasses sign language interpreting services, audiology services, and broader special education contracted staffing across school districts and health systems. The code's nominal scope and the recent solicitations show substantial mismatch — the posted opportunities focus primarily on interpreting services for deaf and hard-of-hearing students and audiology assessment at state-supported facilities, not monaural hearing aid assessment per se. School districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida, Katy Independent School District and Birdville Independent School District in Texas, Tacoma Public Schools in Washington) are the dominant issuing bodies under this code, along with a Texas state health agency (Health and Human Services Commission), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), and regional purchasing cooperatives. Work being solicited includes certified sign language interpreting (with minimum EIPA level 3.5 or RID certification), occupational and physical therapy, speech language pathology, educational diagnostician services, and audiology services including hearing aid fitting and assessment. Contracts typically run one to three years with renewal options and are awarded on an as-needed basis with no guaranteed minimum volume.
