We organized the MDSC because the medical device servicing industry currently lacks a shared way of defining safety and quality and the associated responsibilities and accountabilities among stakeholder groups. The Community strives to come together to achieve common outcomes, solve shared challenges and leverage collective opportunities to enhance patient safety, servicing effectiveness and quality of medical device servicing regardless of who services the medical device.
Created as an outcome of the FDA report on Quality, Safety, and Effectiveness of Servicing of Medical Devices in May 2019, the scope of the MDSC is to define and encourage implementation of actions that advance the community’s mission, including, but not limited to:
