UNSPSC 42181728: Implanted loop recorder system or transmitter

Long term monitoring of cardiac rhythm disturbance events allows physicians to remotely manage patients who require titration of drugs or therapy.

UNSPSC 42181728 Implanted loop recorder system or transmitter is a Commodity code covering specialized cardiac monitoring devices implanted subcutaneously to detect and record cardiac arrhythmias. State and local governments procure these devices primarily through cooperative purchasing vehicles and framework agreements that establish pricing and terms for distribution to public health systems, county hospitals, and state Medicaid agencies. The solicitations under this code reflect procurement structured as master contracts rather than individual unit purchases, with vendors providing comprehensive product catalogs, competitive unit pricing, and tiered discounts based on anticipated volume across participating public entities.

Recent activity under the code centers on cooperative purchasing consortia. The NASPO ValuePoint RFP NVP_1443 for Idaho Medical Supplies, posted by the State of Texas on behalf of Idaho state agencies and other NASPO ValuePoint members with proposals due November 9, 2026, establishes a framework for medical supply distribution including implantable cardiac devices to state agencies and participating public entities, with evaluation focused on vendor qualifications and pricing competitiveness and potential set-asides for small business or state-based vendors to be determined by state policy. A separate Sourcewell RFP 061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment posted May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 deadline does not align with the code's nominal scope and appears to reflect a classification mismatch rather than genuine implanted cardiac device procurement. Geographic activity centers on Idaho and the broader NASPO ValuePoint membership footprint, though the available opportunities provide limited regional detail beyond the cooperative structures themselves.
