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 D9035ZZ

UNSPSC 85892374 Beam radiation of hypopharynx using neutrons is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's clinical specificity — describing a highly specialized radiation oncology procedure — does not align with the solicitation appearing under this code. The County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing services (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) covers ancillary clinical roles across audiology, diagnostic imaging, respiratory care, therapy services, and other non-nursing, non-physician specialties, but does not procure beam radiation services or radiation oncology staffing. This mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the code assignment or a source-system lag in taxonomy alignment.

The code shows no relevant recent activity supporting procurement of the clinical service it nominally describes. State and local procurement offices do not appear to be actively soliciting beam radiation procedures or related oncology services under this code at this time. Business development professionals should verify whether this code reflects actual state and local purchasing patterns for radiation oncology services or whether opportunities in that clinical domain are tagged elsewhere in the UNSPSC taxonomy.
