UNSPSC 85892137: Low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of soft palate using other isotope

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of soft palate 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 D919BYZ

UNSPSC 85892137 Low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of soft palate using other isotope is a Commodity code that shows a mismatch between its nominal scope — a specialized oncology treatment modality — and recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity on record is the County of Santa Clara Health System RFQ for temporary health professional staffing services across ancillary clinical categories (Audiology, Cardiology and Vascular, Diagnostic Imaging/Radiology, Gastroenterology, Health Services Assistant, Medical Social Worker, Ophthalmology, Orthopedic, Patient Transporter, Respiratory Care, Sterile Processing, Surgical/Operating Room/Labor and Delivery, and Therapy Services), which does not involve brachytherapy procurement or radioisotope materials. This suggests either a coding error in the original procurement record or that the code does not capture meaningful state and local contracting activity in its stated domain.

The County of Santa Clara Health System posted the temporary staffing RFQ on July 7, 2026, with proposals due October 7, 2026, as a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualification vehicle with no guaranteed work and a five-year qualification list maintenance period. The lack of additional recent opportunities under this code indicates minimal current state and local procurement targeting brachytherapy services, radioisotope handling, or related oncology infrastructure. Business development professionals should verify whether this code reflects actual institutional purchasing patterns in your target markets before committing resources to pursuit.
