UNSPSC 85893243: High dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of jejunum 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 jejunum 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 DD139YZ

UNSPSC 85893243 High dose rate brachytherapy of jejunum using other isotope is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specialized cancer treatment procedure involving high-dose-rate radiation therapy to the small intestine, but the single recent opportunity posted under this code is entirely unrelated: Santa Clara County Health System's request for qualifications for temporary health professional staffing services across multiple ancillary clinical categories (audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, and others). This staffing vendor-pool RFQ has no connection to brachytherapy or radiological procedures. The source reveals no recent state and local opportunities actually soliciting high-dose-rate brachytherapy services, equipment, or supplies under this code.

Santa Clara County Health System posted the temporary staffing RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) on July 7, 2026 with an October 7, 2026 response deadline, establishing a non-exclusive multiple-award qualified-vendor list for five-year use with no guaranteed contract volumes. The code's assignment to this opportunity appears to be a cataloging error on the part of the issuing body rather than a genuine procurement signal for brachytherapy services. The absence of relevant recent activity under this Commodity code suggests either minimal state and local demand for brachytherapy procedures as a standalone procurement category, or that such services are consistently coded under different UNSPSC classifications when they are solicited.
