UDI Maze

Unique Device Identification is now a FD&C Act regulation.  UDI has been used in healthcare for a number of years on a volunteer basis.  Now it is required.  It applies to all Medical Device classes, except for a number of GMP Exempt Class I devices.

Do you know the compliance deadlines?
Will your company meet the compliance dates established within this rule?  Class III devices need to be compliant by September 24, 2014. Class II and Class I need to be compliant by September 2016 and September 2018 respectively. Download our timeline chart for your reference.

It will impact your entire company
There are many aspects of this new regulation that are confusing and complex.  This is one regulation that will impact nearly every aspect of your company - from your Information Systems to Manufacturing to Quality and more.

UDI will become a worldwide standard
Whats more, the EU and other regulatory agencies worldwide are crafting their own UDI regulations.  Will they be harmonized with the FDA version.  We don't know at this time.  We have the experience to help you, our partner, implement this regulation.
