Forms FDA 3988 and 3989 are published in draft form in Appendix A and B of the draft guidance for comment and are not intended to be used until the forms are finalized. The forms were developed, in part, in response to the recommendations from the Government Accountability Office (GAO) and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of the Inspector General (OIG) regarding the need for comparable information across annual status reports (ASRs) on PMRs and PMCs, to eliminate manual data entry, and to enhance FDA's ability to track PMRs and PMCs.

This draft guidance covers the purpose of each form, when to use these forms, and how to submit these forms. The draft guidance also explains where applicants will be able to find the forms and instructions for their completion once the forms and instructions are finalized.
