UNSPSC 85893656: Low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of ureter using iodine 125 (i-125)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of ureter 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 DT11B9Z

UNSPSC 85893656 Low dose rate brachytherapy of ureter using iodine 125, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal medical procedure scope. The single recent opportunity on file—Santa Clara County Health System's RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052 for temporary health professional staffing services, posted July 7, 2026 with a response deadline of October 7, 2026—does not involve brachytherapy or urological treatment. Instead, it targets a qualified vendor pool across ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, ophthalmology, orthopedic services, respiratory care, sterile processing, and surgical/operating room staffing. The Health System explicitly excludes nursing, physician, and other non-clinical staffing, focusing instead on temporary placement of clinical support professionals. This represents a structural mismatch between the UNSPSC code's intended commodity and the work actually being tagged and solicited under it in the state and local marketplace.

The code shows no recent opportunities in its true scope—specialized urological brachytherapy procedures using iodine-125 implants. The Santa Clara County solicitation is the only recent record, and it concerns staffing placement rather than medical devices or procedure services. State and local procurement under this code does not appear to be active at present, or opportunities in the genuine commodity are being tagged with different UNSPSC codes by issuing bodies. Firms pursuing specialized brachytherapy services or equipment should monitor the code for activity but should not expect volume based on the current posting record.
