This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of pacemaker, single chamber into abdomen subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach.

UNSPSC 85641245 Insertion of pacemaker, single chamber into abdomen subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work being solicited under it in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities posted against this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for government employee health plans, emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the code's nominal scope of pacemaker insertion procedures. The mismatch suggests the code has been misapplied to administrative health services and benefits management work rather than surgical implant procedures.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). The issuing bodies include county health systems, city retirement and human resources offices, county juvenile justice departments, and state transportation authorities. Representative opportunities include the Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), WSDOT's occupational medical surveillance RFP for Washington State Ferries (due October 9, 2026, pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), and Santa Clara Health System's qualification pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code shows no recent activity aligned with its stated scope of surgical pacemaker implantation.
