UNSPSC 85892719: Beam radiation of mediastinum using heavy particles (protons,ions)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of beam radiation of mediastinum using heavy particles (protons,ions)beam radiation of mediastinum 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 DB064ZZ

UNSPSC 85892719 Beam radiation of mediastinum using heavy particles (protons, ions) is a Commodity code with no recent state and local procurement activity matching its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity tagged under this code — County of Santa Clara Health System RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, posted July 7, 2026 with proposals due October 7, 2026 — solicits temporary health professional staffing services across thirteen ancillary clinical categories including audiology, diagnostic imaging, respiratory care, surgical services, and therapy services. This staffing request bears no relationship to particle beam radiation treatment and represents a clear tagging mismatch. The health system established a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualified vendor pool with no guaranteed work volume; selected vendors would be called as operational needs arise over a five-year period.

No verifiable state and local opportunities under the code's actual scope — proton or heavy-ion radiotherapy for mediastinal tumors — appear in current procurement records. The code's nominal clinical function falls within specialized oncology and radiation medicine; procurement under it would typically originate from hospital systems, cancer centers, or state health departments operating radiotherapy facilities. The absence of documented recent activity suggests either that state and local governments rarely procure proton-beam or heavy-ion treatment capability through formal solicitation, or that such purchases, when they occur, are categorized under broader radiotherapy codes or conducted through capital equipment channels outside typical service contracting vehicles.
