UNSPSC 85893262: Low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of stomach using californium 252 (cf-252)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of stomach using californium 252 (cf-252). 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 DD11BCZ

UNSPSC 85893262 Low dose rate (LDR) brachytherapy of stomach using californium 252 (CF-252) is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The single recent opportunity tagged under this code—County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing services (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026)—addresses ancillary clinical staffing across audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, orthopedic, respiratory care, surgical/operating room, and therapy services. This opportunity does not align with the code's nominal scope of brachytherapy treatment using californium isotopes; the mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source or that the code is rarely used by state and local procurement offices for its intended purpose.

The County of Santa Clara Health System established a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualified vendor pool with no guaranteed work, maintaining the list for up to five years and contracting with selected vendors as operational needs arise. Proposers could self-select any or all of the thirteen health professional categories without penalty for specialty focus, with independent evaluation by category and no contract guarantee on qualification. Given the single, tangential opportunity in the recent-activity record, this code does not present a clear procurement signal for vendors pursuing state and local brachytherapy or oncology-related work. Firms interested in temporary clinical staffing placement may monitor County of Santa Clara Health System activity, but the code itself shows no sustained buying pattern aligned with its technical definition.
