UNSPSC 85891716: Contact radiation of pineal body

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 DGY17ZZ

UNSPSC 85891716 Contact radiation of pineal body (Commodity) shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—the County of Santa Clara Health System's July 2026 RFQ for temporary health professional staffing services—is unrelated to medical radiation or pineal diagnostic procedures. Instead, the solicitation seeks to establish a qualified vendor pool for ancillary clinical staffing across thirteen health professional categories including audiology, diagnostic imaging/radiology, therapy services, sterile processing, and patient transport, with a response deadline of October 7, 2026. This suggests either a data-entry error in code assignment or systematic misclassification of the solicitation by the issuing body.

The County of Santa Clara Health System is the sole recent buyer identified under this code. The RFQ is structured as a non-exclusive, multiple-award vehicle with no guaranteed work; selected vendors will be maintained on a qualified list for up to five years and called upon for temporary staffing as operational needs arise. Proposals must be submitted electronically, and the Health System will evaluate submissions independently by category, allowing vendors to propose for all or specific health professional specialties without penalty. Given the limited activity and the apparent code-scope mismatch, this code warrants flagging for data quality review before allocating pursuit resources.
