On Wednesday, June 14, 2017, BakerHostetler hosted a complimentary CLE webinar: Medical Device Connectivity: HIPAA, FDA and IP Considerations
With increasing healthcare costs and the transition to value-based reimbursement, never has the need for connected medical devices been so great – and never have the pitfalls been so daunting. Join us for an overview of the regulatory and intellectual property landscape for this groundbreaking technology.
Our speakers summarized developments in compliance and security issues, FDA guidelines for premarket and postmarket management of cybersecurity, as well as FDA rules regarding software for medical devices and software as a medical device (SaMD).
In addition, IP considerations such as claim drafting strategies, design patents for GUIs and recommendations for layered protection of patient monitoring inventions were also discussed.
