                  <p class="highlighted">The MDSAP model allows recognized Auditing Organizations to conduct a single audit that satisfies compliance requirements and regulatory requirements of participating authorities. This means that the MDSAP audit report can substitute routine agency inspections.</p>
                  <p>Ending its pilot phase and becoming fully implemented in January 2017, the Medical Device Single Audit Program (MDSAP) is an initiative of the Therapeutic Goods Administration of Australia (TGA), the Brazilian Agência Nacional de vigilância sanitária (ANVISA), Health Canada (HC), United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Japan’s Ministry of Health Labour and Welfare (MHLW) and Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA).The implementation of MDSAP consists of three key stages, including the initial audit (stage 1 and 2), surveillance audits and recertification audit.</p>

<h5 class="textBlue">Canada</h5>
<p>As of January 1, 2019, Health Canada only accepts an MDSAP certificate for Class II, III and IV medical devices. Health Canada has made the MDSAP mandatory for regulatory submission.</p>

<h5 class="textBlue">United States</h5>
<p>The MDSAP can be used as a substitute to an FDA inspection, however it does not apply to “For Cause” or “Compliance Follow-up”inspections.</p>

<h5 class="textBlue">Australia</h5>
<p>The TGA can accept the MDSAP report as part of the evidence required for compliance with ISO 13485, and may request additional documents.</p>

<h5 class="textBlue">Brazil</h5>
<p>If a previous ANVISA inspection is deemed satisfactory, the MDSAP report can be used as an alternative to an ANVISA inspection.</p>

<h5 class="textBlue">Japan</h5>
<p>The MDSAP audit report is used as a trial to exempt some manufacturers from on-site inspections.</p>
