UNSPSC 85761620: Insertion of radioactive element into respiratory tract, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of radioactive element into respiratory tract, via natural or artificial opening. 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 0WHQ71Z

UNSPSC 85761620, Insertion of radioactive element into respiratory tract via natural or artificial opening (Commodity), shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a clinical procedure involving radioactive material placement in the respiratory tract—does not align with the state and local opportunities posted under this code, which center on medical staffing, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and disability medical evaluations. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source material or an unusually sparse market for this specific radiological intervention at the state and local level.

Recent opportunities posted under this code span city retirement systems, health departments, county health systems, and state transportation agencies across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years); the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations (due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The absence of radiological procedure-specific opportunities under this code suggests it warrants close monitoring rather than immediate pursuit; clarification with the issuing jurisdiction on correct code assignment would be warranted before resource allocation.
