UNSPSC 85892269: High dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of ear using palladium 103 (pd-103)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of high dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of ear using palladium 103 (pd-103). 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 D9109BZ

UNSPSC 85892269 High dose rate brachytherapy of ear using palladium 103, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a highly specialized clinical procedure using radioactive isotopes for ear treatment—does not align with the single recent opportunity tagged to it in the source material.

The County of Santa Clara Health System posted RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052 on July 7, 2026, with a response due October 7, 2026, to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing services across ancillary clinical categories including audiology, diagnostic imaging, respiratory care, surgical services, and therapy services among others. This solicitation addresses general staffing placement and does not procurement brachytherapy services, isotopes, or specialized radiation therapy delivery. The mismatch between the code's technical scope and the actual opportunity being bought suggests either a classification error in the source data or a procedural anomaly in how the County tagged the notice. Until further opportunities emerge under this code in recent state and local activity, there is insufficient evidence to characterize actual market demand for high dose rate brachytherapy equipment or services at the state and local level.
