Listen "Unboxing the EU’s medical devices rules"
Episode Synopsis
This week, EURACTIV's health journalists Marta Iraola and Gerardo Fortuna dig into the troubled implementation of the new framework for medical devices in Europe which entered into force in 2021. When developers of medical devices started experiencing problems in meeting the deadlines for implementing the key rules of the new regulation, the EU lawmakers decided to postpone the application of certain provisions of these new rules. To get a better grasp of what happened, we spoke to the European Commission spokesperson in charge of health Stefan de Keersmaecker, the policy officer at the European Patients’ Forum (EPF) Julie Spony, and the CEO of MedTech Europe Oliver Bisazza.
