UNSPSC 85892164: Low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of sinuses using iodine 125 (i-125)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of sinuses using iodine 125 (i-125). 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 D917B9Z

UNSPSC 85892164 Low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of sinuses using iodine 125 (i-125) is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Santa Clara County Health System's RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052 for temporary health professional staffing services, due October 7, 2026—does not match the specialized oncologic brachytherapy procedure the code describes. That solicitation targets ancillary clinical staff across audiology, radiology, cardiology, orthopedics, respiratory care, sterile processing, surgical services, and therapy, establishing a non-exclusive qualified vendor pool with no guaranteed work over a potential five-year term. The mismatch suggests the code has been misapplied to health system workforce procurement rather than to the medical device or procedural services the code nominally covers.

Santa Clara County Health System is the only issuing body represented in recent activity under this code. No other state departments, counties, cities, school districts, transit authorities, or special-purpose districts appear to have posted opportunities under this Commodity code recently. Given the absence of relevant activity and the clear misalignment between the code's clinical focus and the staffing solicitation posted against it, this code shows little current decision-relevance for firms pursuing state and local brachytherapy or radiation-oncology procurement.
