UNSPSC 85891813: High dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of pineal body using other isotope

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of high dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of pineal body using other isotope. 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 DG119YZ

UNSPSC 85891813 High dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy of pineal body using other isotope is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code — County of Santa Clara Health System RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052 for temporary health professional staffing services (due October 7, 2026) — does not align with the code's nominal scope of specialized oncologic radiation therapy. The Santa Clara posting solicits staffing across ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, orthopedics, respiratory care, and surgical services, with no mention of brachytherapy or pineal-body treatment. The mismatch suggests the code has been misapplied to a staffing requisition rather than to equipment procurement, clinical services delivery, or radiation-therapy protocols that would match the code's technical definition.

No state or local opportunities for actual high-dose-rate brachytherapy services or equipment appear in the recent posting history. This code does not currently generate meaningful procurement volume in the state and local market, at least among jurisdictions publishing through standard channels. Business developers should verify whether state health systems, comprehensive cancer centers, or hospital purchasing consortia are acquiring or contracting for brachytherapy services under alternative UNSPSC codes or through direct vendor relationships and cooperative purchasing vehicles that do not publish detailed line-item coding to public notice boards.
