UNSPSC 85892567: Beam radiation of right breast using heavy particles (protons,ions)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of beam radiation of right breast using heavy particles (protons,ions)beam radiation of right breast using heavy particles (protons, ions). 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 DM014ZZ

UNSPSC 85892567 Beam radiation of right breast using heavy particles (protons, ions), a Commodity code, shows a mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local solicitation activity. The code nominally describes a specific clinical radiation oncology procedure — proton or ion beam therapy targeting right breast malignancy — yet the single recent opportunity posted under this code is an RFQ by the County of Santa Clara Health System for temporary health professional staffing services across thirteen ancillary clinical categories including audiology, diagnostic imaging, respiratory care, and therapy services, with proposals due October 7, 2026. This staffing solicitation bears no clear relationship to particle beam radiation therapy and appears to reflect a coding error or jurisdiction-specific tagging practice rather than genuine procurement of the service the code nominates.

The County of Santa Clara Health System is the sole issuing body represented in recent activity under this code. The RFQ establishes a non-exclusive, multiple-award vendor qualification pool with no guaranteed work; the Health System reserves the right to maintain the Qualified List for five years and contract with selected vendors as operational needs arise, with qualifications and scope negotiated case-by-case. Proposers may self-select for all or specific health professional categories without evaluation penalty. The Health System explicitly excludes nursing, physician, and other non-clinical staffing from the solicitation. No other state or local procurement activity under UNSPSC 85892567 is reported in the source, indicating little or no relevant market activity aligned with the code's stated scope of heavy-particle radiation therapy services.
