SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:30 Dec 30, 2019 Jkt 250001 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, PO 00000 Frm 00077 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 0910–0669 0910–0740 0910–0768 0910–0078 0910–0375 0910–0454 Date approval expires 10/31/2022 10/31/2022 10/31/2022 11/30/2022 11/30/2022 11/30/2022 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 to furnish FDA an application containing certain information, materials, and supporting documentation. Under § 830.120, an FDA-accredited issuing 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. E:\FR\FM\31DEN1.SGM 31DEN1 72369 Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 250 / Tuesday, December 31, 2019 / Notices Section 830.360 requires each labeler to retain records showing all UDIs used 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). In the Federal Register of July 31, 2019 (84 FR 37315), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. Although one comment was received, it was not responsive to the four collection of information topics.

Focus groups serve the narrowly defined need for direct and informal opinion on a specific topic and, as a qualitative research tool, have three major purposes: • To obtain information that is useful for developing variables and measures for quantitative studies; • to better understand people’s attitudes and emotions in response to topics and concepts; and • to further explore findings obtained from quantitative studies. We use information gathered from focus group findings to test and refine ideas and to help develop messages and other communications, but will generally conduct further research before making important decisions such as adopting new policies and allocating or redirecting significant resources to support these policies.

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 to furnish FDA an application containing 
certain information, materials, and supporting documentation.
    Under Sec.  830.120, an FDA-accredited issuing 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.

[[Page 72369]]

    Section 830.360 requires each labeler to retain records showing all 
UDIs used 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).
    In the Federal Register of July 31, 2019 (84 FR 37315), FDA 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed 
collection of information. Although one comment was received, it was 
not responsive to the four collection of information topics.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:
