SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal Agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor. ‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) and includes Agency requests or requirements that members of the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal Agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of information, including each proposed extension of an VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:09 Jul 30, 2019 Jkt 247001 existing collection of information, before submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To comply with this requirement, FDA is publishing notice of the proposed collection of information set forth in this document. With respect to the following collection of information, FDA invites comments on these topics: (1) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of FDA’s functions, including whether the information will have practical utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA’s estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques, when appropriate, and other forms of information technology. Unique Device Identification System— 21 CFR Parts 16, 801, 803, 806, 810, 814, 820, 821, 822, and 830 OMB Control Number 0910–0720— Extension In accordance with the Unique Device Identification (UDI) system (see 21 CFR part 801, subpart B), medical device labelers, unless excepted, are required to design and use medical device labels and device packages that bear a UDI, present dates on labels in a particular format, and submit data concerning each version or model of a device to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) no later than the date the label of the device must bear a UDI. Once a device becomes subject to UDI requirements, respondents will be required to update the information reported whenever the information changes. The recordkeeping, reporting, and third-party disclosure requirements referenced in this document are imposed on any person who causes a label to be applied to a device, or who causes the label to be modified, with the intent that the device will be commercially distributed without any subsequent replacement or modification of the label. In most instances, the labeler would be the device manufacturer, but other types of labelers include a specification developer, a single-use device reprocessor, a convenience kit assembler, a private label distributor, a repackager, or a relabeler. Respondents may also include any private organization that applies for PO 00000 Frm 00087 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 accreditation by FDA as an issuing agency. FDA has identified the following requirements as having burdens that must be accounted for under the PRA; the burdens associated with these requirements are summarized in the table that follows: Section 801.18 requires that whenever a labeler of a medical device includes an expiration date, a date of manufacture, or any other date intended to be brought to the attention of the user of the device, the labeler must present the date on the label in a format that meets the requirements of this section. Section 801.20 requires every medical device label and package to bear a UDI. Under § 801.35, any labeler of a device that is not required to bear a UDI on its label may include a UDI on the label of that device and utilize the GUDID. Under § 801.45, any device that has to be labeled with a UDI also has to bear a permanent marking providing the UDI on the device itself if the device is intended for more than one use and intended to be reprocessed before each use. Section 801.50 requires stand-alone software to comply with specific labeling requirements that identify the software. Section 801.55 authorizes additional, case-by-case, labeling exceptions and alternatives to standard UDI labeling requirements. If a labeler relabels or modifies a label of a device that is required to bear a UDI, under § 830.60 it has to keep a record showing the relationship of the original device identifier to the new device identifier. Section 830.110 requires an applicant seeking initial FDA accreditation as a UDI-issuing agency to furnish FDA an application containing certain information, materials, and supporting documentation. Under § 830.120, an FDA-accredited issuing agency is required to disclose information concerning its system for the assignment of UDIs; maintain a list of labelers that use its system for the assignment of UDIs and provide FDA a copy of such list; and upon request, provide FDA with information concerning a labeler that is employing the issuing agency’s system for assignment of UDIs. Sections 830.310 and 830.320 require the labeler to provide certain information to the GUDID concerning the labeler and each version or model of a device required to be labeled with a UDI, unless the labeler obtains a waiver. Section 830.360 requires each labeler to retain records showing all UDIs used E:\FR\FM\31JYN1.SGM 31JYN1 37317 Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 147 / Wednesday, July 31, 2019 / Notices to identify devices that must be labeled with a UDI and the particular version or model associated with each device identifier, until 3 years after it ceases to market a version or model of a device. Respondents who are required to submit data to the Agency under certain other approved information collections (listed below) are required to include UDI data elements for the device that is the subject of such information collection. Addition of the UDI data elements is included in this burden estimate for the conforming amendments in the following 21 CFR parts: Part 803—Medical Device Reporting (OMB control number 0910–0437), Part 806—Medical Devices; Reports of Corrections and Removals (OMB control number 0910–0359), Part 814—Premarket Approval of Medical Devices (OMB control number 0910–0231), Part 820—Quality System Regulation (OMB control number 0910–0073), Part 821—Medical Device Tracking Requirements (OMB control number 0910–0442), and Part 822—Postmarket Surveillance (OMB control number 0910–0449).

Unique Device Identification System--21 CFR Parts 16, 801, 803, 806, 
810, 814, 820, 821, 822, and 830

OMB Control Number 0910-0720--Extension

    In accordance with the Unique Device Identification (UDI) system 
(see 21 CFR part 801, subpart B), medical device labelers, unless 
excepted, are required to design and use medical device labels and 
device packages that bear a UDI, present dates on labels in a 
particular format, and submit data concerning each version or model of 
a device to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) no 
later than the date the label of the device must bear a UDI. Once a 
device becomes subject to UDI requirements, respondents will be 
required to update the information reported whenever the information 
changes.
    The recordkeeping, reporting, and third-party disclosure 
requirements referenced in this document are imposed on any person who 
causes a label to be applied to a device, or who causes the label to be 
modified, with the intent that the device will be commercially 
distributed without any subsequent replacement or modification of the 
label. In most instances, the labeler would be the device manufacturer, 
but other types of labelers include a specification developer, a 
single-use device reprocessor, a convenience kit assembler, a private 
label distributor, a repackager, or a relabeler. Respondents may also 
include any private organization that applies for accreditation by FDA 
as an issuing agency.
    FDA has identified the following requirements as having burdens 
that must be accounted for under the PRA; the burdens associated with 
these requirements are summarized in the table that follows:
    Section 801.18 requires that whenever a labeler of a medical device 
includes an expiration date, a date of manufacture, or any other date 
intended to be brought to the attention of the user of the device, the 
labeler must present the date on the label in a format that meets the 
requirements of this section.
    Section 801.20 requires every medical device label and package to 
bear a UDI.
    Under Sec.  801.35, any labeler of a device that is not required to 
bear a UDI on its label may include a UDI on the label of that device 
and utilize the GUDID.
    Under Sec.  801.45, any device that has to be labeled with a UDI 
also has to bear a permanent marking providing the UDI on the device 
itself if the device is intended for more than one use and intended to 
be reprocessed before each use.
    Section 801.50 requires stand-alone software to comply with 
specific labeling requirements that identify the software.
    Section 801.55 authorizes additional, case-by-case, labeling 
exceptions and alternatives to standard UDI labeling requirements.
    If a labeler relabels or modifies a label of a device that is 
required to bear a UDI, under Sec.  830.60 it has to keep a record 
showing the relationship of the original device identifier to the new 
device identifier.
    Section 830.110 requires an applicant seeking initial FDA 
accreditation as a UDI-issuing agency to furnish FDA an application 
containing certain information, materials, and supporting 
documentation.
    Under Sec.  830.120, an FDA-accredited issuing agency is required 
to disclose information concerning its system for the assignment of 
UDIs; maintain a list of labelers that use its system for the 
assignment of UDIs and provide FDA a copy of such list; and upon 
request, provide FDA with information concerning a labeler that is 
employing the issuing agency's system for assignment of UDIs.
    Sections 830.310 and 830.320 require the labeler to provide certain 
information to the GUDID concerning the labeler and each version or 
model of a device required to be labeled with a UDI, unless the labeler 
obtains a waiver.
    Section 830.360 requires each labeler to retain records showing all 
UDIs used

[[Page 37317]]

to identify devices that must be labeled with a UDI and the particular 
version or model associated with each device identifier, until 3 years 
after it ceases to market a version or model of a device.
    Respondents who are required to submit data to the Agency under 
certain other approved information collections (listed below) are 
required to include UDI data elements for the device that is the 
subject of such information collection. Addition of the UDI data 
elements is included in this burden estimate for the conforming 
amendments in the following 21 CFR parts:

\1\ Maximum number of respondents for any regulatory requirement within each category. Individual regulatory requirements within the category may
  involve fewer respondents.
\2\ Maximum number of responses for any regulatory requirement within each category. Individual regulatory requirements within the category may involve
  fewer responses.
\3\ Maximum total annual responses for any regulatory requirement within each category. Individual regulatory requirements within the category may
  involve fewer total annual responses.
\4\ Rounded to three decimals. Total hours reflects a more precise, non-rounded average burden per response. An approximate (non-rounded) conversion to
  minutes is shown in parentheses.
\5\ Total hours is based on a more precise burden per response than the rounded value show in this table.

    Based on a review of the information collection since our last 
request for OMB approval, we have made no adjustments to our burden 
estimate.
