UNSPSC 85903047: Speech threshold assessment

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 F00Z1ZZ

UNSPSC 85903047 Speech threshold assessment is a Commodity code. State and local governments use this code to procure a narrow set of specialized clinical evaluations — specifically hearing and speech assessments for discrete populations in narrowly defined contexts. The recent opportunities reveal little market activity aligned with the code's nominal name; instead, issuers are tagging a broad range of health and behavioral services, occupational health assessments, and medical evaluations under this code despite their lack of connection to speech threshold work. The code appears to see minimal targeted procurement activity for its stated scope.

The source shows recent opportunities across health systems, county governments, and state agencies, but nearly all reflect medical directors, occupational health services, EMS staffing, dental and vision screening, telehealth, wellness programs, and behavioral health — none of which constitute speech threshold assessment. Inland Empire Health Plan (California) posted an RFI for virtual urgent care services due October 31, 2026; DeKalb County, Georgia, requested medical services proposals due November 12, 2026; and the Nevada Health Authority issued an RFP for Program of All Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) operations due December 10, 2026. These are the only opportunities with relatively recent hard dates in the block. Geographic spread encompasses California, Georgia, Nevada, Colorado, Arizona, Texas, Kansas, Missouri, Virginia, and the District of Columbia, but the consistent mismatch between the code label and the actual procurements suggests either systematic miscoding by issuers or abandonment of this code for its intended use. No recent opportunities specifically solicit speech-language pathology assessments, audiological threshold testing, or speech therapy evaluations. If pursuing opportunities under this code, verify the actual scope with the issuing body before investing in qualification documents, as the code's present application does not reliably signal the clinical services being bought.
