UNSPSC 85641523: Insertion of pacemaker, single chamber into abdomen subcutaneous tissue and fascia, percutaneous approach

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, percutaneous approach. This surgical 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 0JH834Z

UNSPSC 85641523 Insertion of pacemaker, single chamber into abdomen subcutaneous tissue and fascia, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical implantation procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged under this code are administrative and occupational health services—medical record review, disability medical evaluation coordination, occupational surveillance examinations, and pharmacy benefit management—that have no connection to pacemaker insertion or implantable device placement.

The source records six recent state and local solicitations attributed to this code, spanning Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. However, none of them procure pacemaker implantation services. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) seeks independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations; the Washington State Department of Transportation (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) requests occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations; the County of Santa Clara Health System (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) establishes a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing; and Collier County Procurement (RFP 25-8414) administers pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 employees with an estimated $8.7 million in annual pharmacy spending. The mismatch between the code's surgical scope and the actual opportunities suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or a significant divergence between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local procurement offices apply it. No opportunities in the source record relate to implantable cardiac devices, surgical implantation, or medical device procurement aligned with the code's nominal content.
