UNSPSC 42295542: Implantable nerve stimulator system or kit accessories

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is either an Implantable nerve stimulators or one of their accessories. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42295542 Implantable nerve stimulator system or kit accessories (Commodity) shows activity in state and local healthcare procurement, though the recent opportunities logged under this code consist primarily of cardiac rhythm management devices and spinal implants rather than nerve stimulator accessories per the code's nominal scope. The University Medical Center of El Paso (UMC), operated by the El Paso County Hospital District in Texas, issued RFP #784-03-26-001 to establish a dual-vendor framework for pacemakers, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), cardiac resynchronization therapy devices (CRT-Ds and CRT-Ps), and leadless pacemakers, with proposals due April 29, 2026. The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UTHSA) concurrently solicited spinal implants and related surgical supplies on a bill-only basis through RFP 745-26-P04, with a deadline of March 10, 2026, for its newly opened 144-bed Multispecialty and Research Hospital. Both are public health systems procuring implantable medical devices for acute-care settings under competitively sealed proposal processes, with evaluation criteria weighted toward clinical quality, physician experience, product portfolio breadth, and vendor support capabilities alongside cost. Neither solicitation identifies set-asides or restrictions by enterprise category.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, where UTHSA and UMC represent the two identifiable opportunities. A separate cooperative purchasing initiative through Sourcewell (State of Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative) posted RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026, for law enforcement equipment with a June 16, 2026 deadline, which appears unrelated to implantable medical devices and does not reflect typical scope under this code. The two healthcare-focused opportunities suggest that state and local demand under this code flows primarily through academic medical centers and safety-net hospitals procuring implantable device platforms for surgical programs, though the mismatch between the code's nominal scope (nerve stimulator accessories) and the actual solicitations (cardiac devices and spinal implants) indicates potential taxonomy misclassification in the state and local procurement data. No additional recent opportunities aligned with nerve stimulator accessories proper are evident in the source.
