About UNSPSC 85891538

UNSPSC 85891538 Low dose rate brachytherapy of thorax lymphatics using californium 252 (cf-252) is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The single opportunity tagged under this code — a County of Santa Clara Health System RFQ for temporary health professional staffing services (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) — is unrelated to specialized oncology radiation therapy and does not reflect actual buying under the code's nominal scope.

The mismatch between the code's technical definition and the staffing solicitation indicates either a data-entry error in the opportunity record or a misclassification in the state and local procurement system. State and local governments do contract for clinical radiation therapy and brachytherapy services, but recent activity under this specific Commodity code is not evident in the available opportunity records. Firms pursuing brachytherapy and oncology radiation therapy work should monitor state health department and county health system RFPs and RFQs more broadly, or verify the correct UNSPSC code(s) under which these services are actually being solicited in your target jurisdictions.
