UNSPSC 85891416: High dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of bone marrow using iridium 192 (ir-192)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of high dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of bone marrow using iridium 192 (ir-192). 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 D71098Z

UNSPSC 85891416 High dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy of bone marrow using iridium 192 (Ir-192) is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specialized oncology treatment modality, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not align with that therapeutic scope. The single recent opportunity posted under the code — a County of Santa Clara Health System RFQ for temporary health professional staffing services across ancillary clinical categories including audiology, radiology, respiratory care, and surgical support — bears no relationship to HDR brachytherapy delivery or bone marrow treatment. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source opportunity or minimal relevant procurement activity currently tagged to this code.

The County of Santa Clara Health System RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052), due October 7, 2026, seeks to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary clinical staffing on a non-exclusive, multiple-award basis with no guaranteed work volume. Proposers may self-select and bid for all or specific health professional categories without penalty for single-specialty focus, with the Health System retaining the Qualified List for five years. This represents the only recent state or local opportunity identified under the code; the source provides no additional geographic spread or repeat-buyer pattern. If HDR brachytherapy procurement does occur in state and local healthcare systems, it is not currently surfacing under this UNSPSC classification in publicly available solicitation records.
