UNSPSC 85892690: High dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of lung using other isotope

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of high dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of lung 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 DB129YZ

UNSPSC 85892690 High dose rate brachytherapy of lung using other isotope is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity on record—the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing services (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026)—falls outside the specialized medical physics and oncology-focused treatment domain the code describes and does not represent a pattern of buying under this classification.

The mismatch between the code's intended use and the actual opportunity suggests this Commodity code either sees minimal state and local activity or is rarely selected as the primary classification for related purchases. Business development professionals should verify whether state and local health systems and oncology centers use alternative UNSPSC codes or procurement vehicles to source brachytherapy equipment, isotope supplies, or related services, and consider whether institutional buyers in this space rely on cooperative purchasing agreements, sole-source justifications, or federal procurement channels rather than traditional state and local RFPs.
