UNSPSC 42181711: Electrocardiography EKG telephony transmitter or receiver systems

In this classification, this commodity indicates the peripheral telephony transmitting and receiving unit for a product that can record and measure electronic waves generated from the heart of a human. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42181711 Electrocardiography EKG telephony transmitter or receiver systems, a Commodity code, encompasses remote cardiac monitoring and transmission equipment that state and local governments procure as part of broader medical supply frameworks and law enforcement support contracts. Recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show minimal direct procurement activity focused specifically on EKG telephony systems; instead, the code appears in cooperative purchasing vehicles that bundle EKG equipment within larger medical supply or support-services categories rather than as a discrete line item.

Recent activity includes a NASPO ValuePoint RFP (NVP_1443) posted October 6, 2026, sponsored by Idaho state agencies and open to participating NASPO ValuePoint entities nationwide, with proposals due November 9, 2026. The RFP establishes a framework for medical supplies across multiple product categories distributed to Idaho state agencies and other participating public entities, with evaluation centered on vendor qualifications and competitive pricing. A second opportunity, Sourcewell RFP #061626 posted May 12, 2026 for law enforcement equipment (response deadline June 16, 2026), was advertised under Washington state law and drew participation from Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima Counties along with numerous jurisdictions across the United States and Canada; this cooperative contract reserves the resulting purchasing vehicle for thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, and tribal governments. Geographic activity centers on the Pacific Northwest (Washington, Idaho) and multistate cooperative purchasing networks, though the source shows no solicitations narrowly focused on EKG telephony systems as a standalone procurement category — vendors pursuing this code should expect activity within larger medical supply or support-equipment frameworks rather than isolated bids for cardiac monitoring transmission equipment.
