UNSPSC 85893210: High dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of rectum using iodine 125 (i-125)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of high dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of rectum 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 DD1799Z

UNSPSC 85893210 High dose rate brachytherapy of rectum using iodine 125, a Commodity code, shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specialized radiation oncology procedure, but the single recent opportunity tagged under it—County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle posted July 7, 2026—is unrelated to brachytherapy services or any radiotherapy work. The Santa Clara solicitation instead seeks to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across thirteen disciplines including audiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, respiratory care, and surgical services, explicitly excluding nursing and physician staffing. This mismatch suggests the code may have been applied incorrectly to a generalized health professional staffing RFQ, or the code's recent activity is too sparse to support a meaningful procurement pattern.

The single opportunity from Santa Clara Health System is a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualification vehicle with no guaranteed work, open to proposals for individual or multiple specialty categories through October 7, 2026. Geographic concentration cannot be assessed from one state jurisdiction. The absence of additional recent opportunities under this code indicates it does not reflect active state and local procurement demand for high-dose-rate brachytherapy services or related cancer care procedures at this time.
