UNSPSC 85893956: High dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of ovary using iridium 192 (ir-192)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of high dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of ovary using iridium 192 (ir-192). 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 DU1098Z

UNSPSC 85893956 High dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy of ovary using iridium 192 (Ir-192) is a Commodity code that shows a material mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specialized oncology radiation therapy procedure, yet the single recent opportunity on file—Santa Clara County Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing services (RFSQHHSFY270052)—covers ancillary clinical staffing across audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, health services assistance, medical social work, ophthalmology, orthopedics, patient transport, respiratory care, sterile processing, surgical and operating room support, and therapy services. The Health System's solicitation establishes a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualified vendor pool with no guaranteed work, open through October 7, 2026, and does not reference brachytherapy, oncology, or radiation therapy services.

The code reports no recent activity aligned with its stated scope. The single opportunity tagged to this code is plainly unrelated to the oncology procedure it nominally describes, suggesting either a tagging error in the source database or a fundamental divergence between the code's intended use and current state and local procurement practice. Business development professionals should verify the accuracy of any procurement database records pointing to this code before committing resources to pursuit or account development.
