The UNSPSC Commodity code 85892727 (Beam radiation of pleura using heavy particles) does not reflect the work being solicited under this code in recent state and local procurement activity. The most recent opportunity posted under this code—RFSQHHSFY270052 from the County of Santa Clara Health System, due October 7, 2026—is for temporary health professional staffing services across ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, ophthalmology, orthopedic services, respiratory care, sterile processing, surgical and operating room support, and therapy services. The nominal code scope (heavy-particle beam radiation therapy targeting pleural disease) bears no relation to the temporary staffing pool being solicited. This mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the opportunity record or that the code is not actively used for state and local procurement aligned with its stated definition.

The County of Santa Clara Health System is establishing a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualified vendor pool with no guaranteed work volume and a five-year maintenance window; selected vendors will negotiate scope and placement on a case-by-case basis. Proposers may bid single or multiple health professional categories without penalty. No additional recent opportunities appear in the source record for this code, and the geographic focus is limited to Santa Clara County, California. Given the fundamental mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual work posted under it, this code does not represent an active procurement category for state and local buyers pursuing beam radiation services or similar oncology-focused work.
