UNSPSC 85892771: Low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of trachea using iridium 192 (ir-192)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of trachea using iridium 192 (ir-192). 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 DB10B8Z

UNSPSC 85892771 Low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of trachea using iridium 192 (ir-192) is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged to it. The Santa Clara County Health System's July 2026 RFQ for temporary health professional staffing services solicits placement on a qualified vendor pool across ancillary clinical categories—audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, orthopedic, respiratory care, sterile processing, surgical and operating room, and therapy services—with no connection to brachytherapy, oncology treatment, or radiation-therapy procedures. The code shows little relevant recent activity; the single posted opportunity represents general healthcare workforce augmentation, not the specialized cancer treatment modality the code nominally describes.

Santa Clara County Health System is the only recent issuing body identified under this code. The RFQ, posted July 7, 2026 with response due October 7, 2026, established a multiple-award, non-exclusive qualified vendor list with no guaranteed work volume and a five-year maintenance period. The Health System excluded nursing and physician services from the solicitation, focusing instead on mid-level and support-level clinical staffing. Absent further evidence of brachytherapy-specific procurement activity by state and local health departments, cancer centers, or hospital systems, this code does not currently signal active market demand for the specialized radiation oncology service it nominally represents.
