Abstract

One aspect is forming a medical lead for implantation. The method includes forming a plurality of non-ground electrodes, at least one non-ground electrode having a plurality of segments. Overmold portions are formed for the at least one of the plurality of non-ground electrodes, including keys and tabs. One of a plurality of conductors is attached to one segment of the at least one non-ground electrode using the keys and tabs. The non-ground electrodes and plurality of conductors are assembled into electrode assembly and the overmold portions are reflowed. The reflowed electrode assembly is then ground to form the medical lead.
