UNSPSC 85893263: Low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of stomach using palladium 103 (pd-103)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of stomach using palladium 103 (pd-103). 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 DD11BBZ

UNSPSC 85893263 Low dose rate brachytherapy of stomach using palladium 103 (Pd-103) is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a highly specialized oncology procedure involving internal radiation therapy—does not align with the staffing-services opportunity tagged under it in the recent record.

The County of Santa Clara Health System posted RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052 in July 2026 to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing services across ancillary clinical categories including Audiology, Cardiology and Vascular, Diagnostic Imaging/Radiology, Gastroenterology, Health Services Assistant, Medical Social Worker, Ophthalmology, Orthopedic, Patient Transporter, Respiratory Care, Sterile Processing, Surgical/Operating Room/Labor and Delivery, and Therapy Services, with proposals due October 7, 2026. The vehicle is non-exclusive and multiple-award with no guaranteed work; the Health System may maintain the qualified list for five years and contract with selected vendors as operational needs arise. This is a general health-system staffing pool, not a procurement of brachytherapy services or equipment. The mismatch between code and opportunity suggests either a tagging error by the issuing body or a backend taxonomy misalignment in the source data. Business development professionals evaluating this Commodity code should treat it as inactive for direct state and local procurement purposes and verify the actual service line if this code appears in future RFPs.
