UNSPSC 85891363: Beam radiation of sternum using photons 1 - 10 mev

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of beam radiation of sternum using photons 1 - 10 mev. 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 DP041ZZ

UNSPSC 85891363 Beam radiation of sternum using photons 1–10 MeV is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local procurement activity, does not align with its nominal scope. The only recent opportunity tagged to this code is the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing services (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026), which solicits qualified vendors across thirteen ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, orthopedic, respiratory care, sterile processing, and surgical/operating room support — work that bears no relationship to radiation oncology or sternum-targeted photon therapy. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the County's procurement system or a drift in how Santa Clara Health System categorizes temporary clinical staffing.

The code shows minimal relevant recent activity. The Santa Clara opportunity is structured as a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualification vehicle with no guaranteed work; the Health System may maintain the Qualified List for five years and contract with selected vendors as operational needs arise. Proposers may self-select and submit qualifications for all or specific categories without penalty. Placement on the Qualified List does not guarantee contract award or work volume. All proposals must be submitted electronically. Beyond this single Santa Clara posting, no other recent state or local procurement activity under this code is evident. Business development professionals evaluating this code should verify whether it genuinely represents radiation oncology procurement activity or represents a miscoded staffing category at Santa Clara Health System.
