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 DF005ZZ

UNSPSC 85892978 Beam radiation of liver using neutrons (Commodity) shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's technical name suggests specialized oncology or hepatology radiation therapy services, but the single recent opportunity in the dataset—County of Santa Clara Health System's request for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories—bears no relation to radiation therapy. The solicitation explicitly excludes nursing, physician, and other non-clinical roles, instead seeking vendors qualified to provide temporary staffing in audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, health services assistance, medical social work, ophthalmology, orthopedic services, patient transport, respiratory care, sterile processing, surgical and operating room services, and therapy services. This represents a health system procurement for temporary clinical labor, not the specialized medical equipment or procedures the code nominally describes.

The County of Santa Clara Health System posted the opportunity (RFSQHHSFY270052) on July 7, 2026, with a proposal due date of October 7, 2026. The Health System is establishing a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualified vendor pool with no guaranteed work volume; qualifications and scope will be negotiated case-by-case with selected vendors. This code carries minimal recent activity relevant to its stated purpose—practitioners pursuing specialized medical radiation therapy services should treat this Commodity as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and verify the correct UNSPSC classification through the issuing body or state procurement office.
