UNSPSC 85773127: Insertion of radioactive element into left hand, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of radioactive element into left hand, 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 0XHK01Z

UNSPSC 85773127 Insertion of radioactive element into left hand, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five most recent opportunities posted under this code — inmate medical and pharmacy services for a Georgia county prison, pharmacy benefit management for a Florida county, virtual primary and urgent care for a Florida county, peer support services for a California county behavioral health program, and a fire department medical director position for a California city — do not reflect the clinical procedure named in the code's definition and instead represent routine health plan administration, correctional healthcare procurement, and public health staffing.

The code appears to be a mislabeling artifact in state and local procurement systems. No issuing body is soliciting radioactive brachytherapy insertion procedures, oncology supplies, or related interventional radiology services under this code. The disconnect between the code's clinical specificity and the actual work being procured suggests this Commodity code does not meaningfully correspond to state and local government buying activity and should not be pursued as a source of relevant contract opportunities.
