Extension of CPC Codes for PCR EPDItaly007 – CORE PCR Rev.3.1

EPDItaly007 – CORE PCR Rev.3.1 defines the application for products that fall under CPC family code 46: “Machinery and electrical equipment.”
Although “Electrodiagnostic equipment used in medical, surgical, dental, or veterinary settings” does not fall under this family, but under CPC code 481 “Medical and surgical equipment and orthopedic devices,” following in-depth analysis with experts in the field it is believed that CPC Code 481 can be included in the scope of PCR EPDItaly007, where “Medical and surgical equipment and orthopedic devices” refers to electrical equipment. For this reason, the document will be revised in the future.

In the interim period, however, it is possible to develop an EPD that also refers to the PCR for “Electrodiagnostic equipment used in medical, surgical, dental or veterinary settings” as a reference, provided these are electrical/electronic.
