Changing landscape of Medical Device Regulation in the UK: free webinar
The way medical devices are regulated in the United Kingdom (UK) is changing. The UK will be leaving the European Union (EU) at the end of 2020, and the EU Medical Device Regulation will not be coming fully into force in England, Scotland and Wales.
The current Medical Device Directive will remain in place until a new regulatory framework is introduced in 2023. A UK Conformity Assessment (UKCA) mark is being introduced.
This webinar will cover how the changes will affect UK organisations, and how they may impact on your service. Register here.
