UNSPSC 85891556: High dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of axillary lymphatics using californium 252 (cf-252)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of high dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of axillary lymphatics using californium 252 (cf-252). 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 D7149CZ

UNSPSC 85891556 High dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of axillary lymphatics using californium 252 (cf-252) is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The single opportunity posted under this code—a Santa Clara County Health System solicitation for temporary health professional staffing services (RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026)—addresses general ancillary clinical staffing across audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, and related disciplines, not the highly specialized radiation oncology procedure that the code nominally describes. The mismatch between the code's narrow clinical scope and the staffing-pool nature of the posted opportunity suggests either a tagging error in the procurement system or administrative miscoding rather than genuine activity under this Commodity.

State and local procurement offices appear not to source high-dose-rate brachytherapy services—a specialized treatment modality typically anchored within hospital oncology departments or radiation therapy centers—through public competitive solicitation at the Commodity level. The code merits watch status only if repeat opportunities emerge that actually target radioactive source procurement, physics consultation, or clinical brachytherapy procedures; current signals do not support active pursuit.
