UNSPSC 85893960: Beam radiation of uterus using heavy particles (protons,ions)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of beam radiation of uterus using heavy particles (protons,ions)beam radiation of uterus 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 DU024ZZ

UNSPSC 85893960 Beam radiation of uterus using heavy particles (protons, ions), a Commodity code, shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's title describes a specialized oncology treatment modality involving proton or ion-beam radiation therapy targeting uterine malignancies—a highly specific clinical service typically available only at academic medical centers or specialized radiation-oncology facilities. However, the recent opportunity tagged under this code does not involve radiation therapy or uterine treatment at all.

The County of Santa Clara Health System posted RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052 on July 7, 2026, soliciting proposals to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing services across 13 ancillary clinical specialties, with a response deadline of October 7, 2026. The eligible categories include Audiology, Cardiology and Vascular, Diagnostic Imaging/Radiology, Gastroenterology, Health Services Assistant, Medical Social Worker, Ophthalmology, Orthopedic, Patient Transporter, Respiratory Care, Sterile Processing, Surgical/Operating Room/Labor and Delivery, and Therapy Services. This is a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualification vehicle with no guaranteed minimum work volume; 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. This opportunity bears no relationship to heavy-particle radiation therapy. The code shows little relevant recent activity under its actual scope; the single posted opportunity reflects a procurement-classification error rather than genuine demand for proton or ion-beam uterine radiation services in the state and local market.
