UNSPSC 85891835: Beam radiation of thyroid using photons >10 mev

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of beam radiation of thyroid using photons >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 DG052ZZ

UNSPSC 85891835 Beam radiation of thyroid using photons >10 mev is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specialized medical radiation therapy procedure, but the recent state and local contracting activity under this code does not align with that scope. The County of Santa Clara Health System's July 2026 solicitation (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing services across ancillary clinical categories — including audiology, diagnostic imaging, respiratory care, surgical support, and therapy services — represents a mismatch with the code's stated medical physics focus. The solicitation establishes a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualified vendor pool with no guaranteed work volume, negotiated on a case-by-case basis across thirteen eligible service categories, explicitly excluding nursing, physicians, and non-clinical staffing.

The source provides no additional recent opportunities under this code across other state or local jurisdictions, and the single posted opportunity does not substantively reflect the code's nominal scope of thyroid radiation oncology services. The geographic activity shown is limited to California (Santa Clara County), with a response deadline of October 7, 2026. Given the mismatch between the code definition and actual procurement activity, this code shows limited relevant state and local contracting signal and warrants monitoring for future opportunities that align with medical radiation therapy or oncology staffing.
