UNSPSC 85892778: High dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of trachea using cesium 137 (cs-137)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of high dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of trachea using cesium 137 (cs-137). 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 DB1097Z

UNSPSC 85892778 High dose rate brachytherapy of trachea using cesium 137 shows little relevant recent activity under this Commodity code. The single posted opportunity—County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing solicitation (RFSQHHSFY270052, RFQ, due October 7, 2026)—involves ancillary clinical staffing across audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, and other non-physician categories, which falls outside the scope of radiation oncology procedures that the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either tagging error in the source system or that state and local procurement offices rarely use this code for brachytherapy contracting in the current period.

No representative opportunities under the code's intended scope appear in recent postings. State and local procurement activity for specialized oncology services, when it occurs, may be coded differently or handled through standing healthcare provider agreements rather than discrete solicitations. Firms pursuing radiation oncology or brachytherapy contracting with state and local health systems should verify code assignment during pre-bid inquiry and monitor health authority RFPs directly, as reliance on this UNSPSC code alone will not surface relevant opportunities.
