UNSPSC 85893019: Beam radiation of pancreas using photons 1 - 10 mev

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of beam radiation of pancreas using photons 1 - 10 mev. 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 DF031ZZ

UNSPSC 85893019 Beam radiation of pancreas using photons 1–10 MeV is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific radiotherapy modality, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not reflect that specialized clinical scope. The County of Santa Clara Health System's July 2026 solicitation (RFSQHHSFY270052) tagged under this code requests temporary health professional staffing services across multiple ancillary clinical categories—including audiology, diagnostic imaging/radiology, gastroenterology, respiratory care, surgical/operating room support, and therapy services—with explicit exclusion of nursing, physician, and other non-clinical staffing. This mismatch between the code's nominal description and the actual work being bought suggests either a cataloging error in the county's tagging or a practice of using this code as a placeholder for broader health services staffing procurement.

The sole recent opportunity on record is the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification-pool RFQ due October 7, 2026, which establishes a non-exclusive, multiple-award vendor pool with no guaranteed work and a five-year retention period. The Health System will maintain the Qualified List and contract with selected vendors as operational needs arise, with scope and qualifications to be negotiated case-by-case. This code shows minimal recent activity in state and local procurement; absent additional opportunities under the correct or clarified coding, the practical value of pursuing this specific UNSPSC is limited until the cataloging issue is resolved or additional health system opportunities emerge under it.
