UNSPSC 85892111: High dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of oropharynx 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 oropharynx 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 D91F98Z

UNSPSC 85892111 High dose rate brachytherapy of oropharynx using iridium 192 shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity posted under this Commodity code — County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing services (due October 7, 2026) — involves temporary clinical staffing across audiology, radiology, cardiology, gastroenterology, orthopedic, respiratory care, surgical services, and therapy disciplines, with no connection to brachytherapy or radiation oncology services. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the procurement system or minimal actual demand for specialized brachytherapy procedures through formal state and local contract vehicles.

The code does not surface additional recent opportunities, repeat buyers, or clear geographic concentration. State and local health systems and clinical purchasing organizations do not appear to be routinely soliciting brachytherapy services — including iridium-192 HDR brachytherapy for oropharyngeal malignancies — through posted RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITQ processes. If your firm provides brachytherapy equipment, training, or clinical services to state and local health systems, this code warrants monitoring for future activity, but current procurement velocity under this code is not discernible from recent postings.
