UNSPSC 85641536: Insertion of cardiac rhythm related device into chest subcutaneous tissue and fascia, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of cardiac rhythm related device into chest 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 0JH63PZ

UNSPSC 85641536 Insertion of cardiac rhythm related device into chest subcutaneous tissue and fascia, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity for state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—implantation of cardiac devices such as pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators—does not align with the recent state and local opportunities posted under this classification. The six most recent opportunities tagged to this code encompass independent medical evaluation services for public safety retirement disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefits for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing services. None of these solicitations involve procurement of cardiac rhythm devices or their implantation; instead, they reflect administrative health services, benefits management, and clinical staffing needs typical of broader health-services codes. This mismatch suggests either persistent miscoding by state and local procurement offices or that the code is not the operative classification for the actual device and implantation work that may occur within the state and local market.

The issuing bodies posting under this code include municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), cities managing employee benefits (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile detention systems (Harris County), county human resources divisions (Collier County), and large county health systems (County of Santa Clara). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas, with no concentration indicating strong market presence. Without recent state and local opportunities that actually involve cardiac device procurement or implantation services, the code presents no clear pursue signal for vendors in this sector. Business development activity should focus on confirmed high-volume purchasers—hospitals, health systems, and state Medicaid programs—rather than the scattered misclassified opportunities currently appearing under this taxonomy entry.
