UNSPSC 85902933: Sensorineural acuity level assessment using audiometer

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a physical rehabilitation intervention or procedure of sensorineural acuity level assessment using audiometer. 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 F00Z41Z

UNSPSC 85902933 Sensorineural acuity level assessment using audiometer is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not reflect this specific scope. The code nominally designates hearing assessment conducted with audiometric equipment, yet the posted solicitations instead procure sign language interpreting services, general special education contracted services including audiology as one line item among many, and temporary health professional staffing with audiology as a single eligible category. The mismatch between the code's technical scope and actual procurement activity suggests this code sees little relevant recent use in state and local procurement.

The exceptions are two straightforward audiology service procurements: the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) issued overlapping solicitations (HHS0017735 and HHS0017735V2, both reissued versions) for comprehensive audiology services at Richmond State Supported Living Center, with bids due August 31, 2026, requiring contractor personnel to hold active Texas audiologist licenses and minimum five years of relevant experience, delivering services Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Time with four-hour response to service calls, and covering identification, assessment, diagnosis, treatment of auditory and vestibular impairments, hearing aid services, and staff training. The County of Santa Clara Health System (California) issued a non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing including audiology as one of thirteen eligible ancillary clinical categories, with proposals due October 7, 2026, establishing a five-year qualified vendor pool with no guaranteed work volume. Geographic activity is limited to Texas and California in the recent record. Beyond these two genuinely relevant opportunities, the remaining solicitations are tagged to this code despite addressing interpreting, general special education services, or mixed health professional staffing where audiology assessment using specific instrumentation is not the primary procurement focus.
