UNSPSC 85901222: Acoustic reflex decay assessment using electroacoustic immitance / acoustic reflex equipment

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a physical rehabilitation intervention or procedure of acoustic reflex decay assessment using electroacoustic immitance / acoustic reflex equipment. This 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 F13ZJ4Z

UNSPSC 85901222 Acoustic reflex decay assessment using electroacoustic immitance / acoustic reflex equipment is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's technical specification addresses audiology diagnostic equipment and related assessment services, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code overwhelmingly focus on interpreting services for deaf and hard-of-hearing populations, special education contracted staffing, audiology services at state-supported living centers, and health professional temporary staffing — none of which center on acoustic immitance or reflex decay diagnostic equipment. The few opportunities that touch audiology (Texas HHSC bids for Richmond State Supported Living Center audiology services and Santa Clara County Health System's temporary audiology staffing) involve clinical service delivery and personnel staffing rather than the diagnostic equipment this code is designed to name. The issuing bodies are school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida, Katy ISD and Birdville ISD in Texas, Tacoma Public Schools in Washington), state health agencies (Texas HHSC), a regional purchasing cooperative (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), and a county health system (Santa Clara County), suggesting this code may be incorrectly assigned to interpreting and staffing procurements by issuing bodies unfamiliar with precise UNSPSC mapping.

Activity concentrates in Texas and Florida, with recent RFPs from Hillsborough County Public Schools (interpreting services, $950,000 annual budget, RFP 26041RFPDST, responses due April 15, 2026), Katy ISD (sign language interpreting across the West 10 RDSPD cooperative, RFP 2518YT, due July 8, 2026), and Birdville ISD (special education contracted services including speech therapy, occupational therapy, and audiology across 30 campuses, proposals due October 21, 2026). The Texas HHSC posted two versions of an audiology services solicitation for Richmond State Supported Living Center (bids due August 10 and August 31, 2026). Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative issued a catalog discount bid for special education supplies (SPE2628, due October 1, 2026, $2.7 million over two years). Santa Clara County Health System in California is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing including audiology (proposals due October 7, 2026). The code shows no recent opportunities actually soliciting acoustic immitance equipment, reflex decay assessment devices, or related electroacoustic diagnostic instrumentation; the activity tagged to this code is primarily interpreting, staffing, and clinical services procurement.
