UNSPSC 85901232: Eustachian tube function assessment using tympanometer

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a physical rehabilitation intervention or procedure of eustachian tube function assessment using tympanometer. 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 F13ZF3Z

UNSPSC 85901232 Eustachian tube function assessment using tympanometer is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities on file show no procurement activity aligned with this code's nominal scope. The opportunities instead reflect solicitations for sign language interpreting services, audiology services (including comprehensive audiology at state-supported living centers and temporary staffing pools), special education contracted services spanning multiple therapeutic and diagnostic disciplines, and catalog discount bids for special education supplies—none of which center on tympanometry or eustachian tube assessment. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in how opportunities were tagged to this code or a lack of current state and local demand for tympanometry equipment or services under this specific UNSPSC classification.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code do reflect broader activity in audiology and hearing-related services across multiple jurisdictions. Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) solicited comprehensive audiology services for Richmond State Supported Living Center (RFP HHS0017735 / HHS0017735V2, with a bid deadline of August 31, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary audiology staffing (proposals due October 7, 2026). School districts in Texas and Florida, including Hillsborough County Public Schools, Katy Independent School District, and Tacoma Public Schools, have issued RFPs for sign language interpreting and special education contracted services that include audiology and hearing support as component line items. Birdville Independent School District (northeast Tarrant County, Texas) issued a competitive sealed proposal for special education contracted services due October 21, 2026, with an estimated cost of $398,494.30 over a four-year potential term. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (Kilgore, Texas) issued a catalog discount bid for special education and supplies (due October 1, 2026) with estimated two-year expenditures of $2,713,541. No recent opportunities explicitly solicit tympanometry assessment or related diagnostic equipment.
