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 DB066ZZ

UNSPSC 85892717 Beam radiation of mediastinum using neutron capture is a Commodity code that shows a mismatch between its nominal scope — a highly specialized oncology radiation therapy procedure — and recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity posted under this code is County of Santa Clara Health System RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, posted July 7, 2026 with a due date of October 7, 2026, which solicits temporary health professional staffing services across thirteen ancillary clinical categories including audiology, diagnostic imaging, respiratory care, sterile processing, and surgical/operating room services. This is 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. The solicitation explicitly excludes nursing, physician, and other non-clinical staffing. Proposers may self-select and submit qualifications for all or specific health professional categories, with independent evaluation by category.

The code shows minimal relevant recent activity; the Santa Clara Health System opportunity appears to be tagged incorrectly under a radiation oncology code when the actual scope covers temporary staffing placement across general ancillary health professions. Geographic presence is limited to California based on this single posting. The Santa Clara Health System is evaluating vendors independently by specialty category with proposals due electronically by October 7, 2026. Business development professionals should verify that this code is the appropriate filter for health-professional staffing opportunities in their target markets, as the current tagging suggests potential data-entry error rather than genuine procurement activity aligned with the code's clinical radiation therapy definition.
