9018.90.75.60 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 9018.90.75.60, encompasses a broad range of electro-medical appliances and instruments used in therapeutic applications that are not otherwise specifically enumerated. It serves as a residual category for devices designed to treat, alleviate, or manage medical conditions through electrical, electronic, or other forms of energy application, excluding those primarily for diagnostic purposes or more specialized functions. Examples might include certain types of therapeutic lasers (not classified as ultrasonic), electrical stimulation devices for rehabilitation, or specific non-invasive treatment apparatus.

It is important to distinguish this category from its sibling, 9018.90.75.40, which specifically covers "Ultrasonic" therapeutic appliances. While both fall under electro-medical therapeutic devices, this "Other" category is for devices whose primary therapeutic modality is not ultrasonic waves. If a device utilizes multiple therapeutic principles, its classification would depend on its primary function or the most defining characteristic of its operation.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories under 9018.90.75.60. Therefore, classification into this category relies on a thorough assessment of the appliance's specific design, intended use, and the absence of a more precise classification elsewhere in the HTS, particularly within the broader scope of Chapter 90 which covers medical and surgical instruments and apparatus.
