UNSPSC 85632008: Insertion of radioactive element into bilateral breast, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of radioactive element into bilateral breast, open approach. This surgical 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 0HHV01Z

UNSPSC 85632008 Insertion of radioactive element into bilateral breast, open approach is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its clinical scope. The code's nominal description—a specific oncologic surgical procedure—does not map to the recent opportunities tagged under it, which span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction. None of these solicitations involve radioactive element insertion or bilateral breast procedures, indicating either a data classification error or institutional use of the code outside its intended clinical taxonomy.

The mismatch between the code's surgical focus and the actual work being procured—which ranges across corrections healthcare administration, pharmacy network management, virtual care platform development, mental health peer support, and municipal EMS medical oversight—means the code shows no reliable signal for vendors in medical device, radiopharmaceutical, or oncologic procedure service lines. State and local procurement does include healthcare-related contracts across corrections departments, county health systems, municipal fire services, and behavioral health authorities, but this particular code does not capture that activity in a manner useful for business development targeting. Firms pursuing state and local healthcare contracts should monitor broader Family and Class codes within the healthcare services taxonomy rather than rely on this Commodity code's recent activity record.
