Dear Lelde Giga,

Estonia will expect the obligation to be carried out as specified in the EU regulation.

Any guidelines agreed on by the member states are expected to be followed as well.

Best regards

Dear Piret Põiklik,

In September I asked you about the reporting of interruptions in the supply of medical devices (art. 10a, Regulation 2024/1086). I asked what is your vision for the introduction of regulation in Estonia? Will it be implemented exactly the same as certain general principles in the EU, or will a more specific arrangement be made for Estonia?

At that time the Q&A had not yet been published, but you indicated that the procedure would be implemented in accordance with EU guidelines and that there are currently no plans to introduce additional requirements.

Hi,

Thank you very much for your previous response.

Considering that the Q&A has now been officially published, is it planned to implement the process as set out in the EU guidelines, or will specific requirements still apply?

Dear Lelde Giga,

Thank you for contacting us.

Estonia will expect the obligation to be carried out as specified in the EU regulation. Any guidelines agreed on by the member states will also most likely be followed.

Good afternoon,

I'm not sure if I'm writing to the right addressee, if I need to write to someone else I'd really appreciate help with contact information.

I would like to clarify some questions that have arisen due to the upcoming changes in the regulatory acts that regulate the reporting of interruptions in the supply of medical devices (art. 10a, Regulation 2024/1086).

I am aware that general guidelines are being developed on cases where reporting is mandatory, etc. I wanted to ask what is your vision for the introduction of regulation in Estonia? Will it be implemented exactly the same as certain general principles in the EU, or will a more specific arrangement be made for Estonia? Will these criteria, in which cases a report is required, remain unchanged in the Estonian situation:

- to limit scope to discontinuations of devices transitioning to the MDR (lack of MDR compliance)

- notification based list of devices published by the European Commission

- notification not required if a successor/replacement device is available

- notification only if expected interruption exceeds 90 days.

Thank you very much for your reply in advance!

Best regards,
