What is MDSAP?

MDSAP is a Medical Device Single Audit Program that allows the conduct of single regulatory audit of medical device manufacturer’s QMS that satisfies various regulatory jurisdiction. This program was developed by a group of medical device regulators, the IMDRF, to allow third-party auditors to conduct this single audit of medical device manufacturers which covers ISO 13485:2016 and respective regulatory requirements. 

MDSAP is a mechanism for producers of medical devices to have their compliance with the standards and laws of up to five distinct medical device markets, including Australia, Brazil, Canada, Japan, and the United States, audited once. The goal of MDSAP is to make it possible to conduct a single regulatory audit of a medical device manufacturer’s quality management system. 

MDSAP and ISO 13485

MDSAP has more stringent requirement than ISO13485. ISO 13485 and MDSAP two different programs with similar requirement. the devices are used in the healthcare industry and pharma industry with the end users being humans so ISO13485 MDSAP standards look to ensure that medical device manufactured to strict quality requirements. Companies that participate in the MDSAP program must undergo an audit to ensure compliance with both regulatory and ISO 13485 requirements in order to profit from the program.
