UNSPSC 85892510: Low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of chest 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 chest 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 DW12B9Z

UNSPSC 85892510 Low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of chest using iodine 125 (i-125) is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code—Santa Clara County Health System's temporary health professional staffing solicitation (RFSQHHSFY270052, RFQ, due October 7, 2026)—does not align with the code's clinical radiation oncology scope. The Health System's request establishes a qualified vendor pool for temporary staffing across ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, orthopedic, respiratory care, sterile processing, surgical and operating room services, and therapy services. The solicitation explicitly excludes nursing, physician, and non-clinical staffing, but contains no mention of brachytherapy, radiation oncology, or cancer treatment services that would map to the UNSPSC code's nominal scope.

The mismatch between the code designation and the actual work being solicited suggests that either the Health System's procurement office applied an incorrect code or that state and local procurement databases contain minimal activity under this specific brachytherapy commodity. The single opportunity provides no actionable signal for vendors targeting low-dose-rate brachytherapy services or equipment at the state and local level. No geographic pattern, repeat-buyer activity, or representative pipeline emerges from the source material.
