FDA Partners with Greenlight Guru: Case for Quality Webinar Series

FDA is able to protect and promote public health by enabling the production and commercialization of life-saving medical devices in the U.S. market. And one of the top priorities for FDA's medical devices center is a focus on quality.

The FDA launched the Case for Quality in 2011 following an in-depth review of device quality data and feedback from both FDA and industry stakeholders.

This program allows the FDA to recognize device manufacturers that are capable of consistently producing high-quality devices and continuously improving.

Greenlight Guru is partnering with FDA CDRH to help spread the word and promote the Case for Quality initiative and its benefits to the medical device industry.

This four-part webinar series is presented by FDA Case for Quality Program Manager Cisco Vicenty and will present an overview on lessons learned from pilot program participants.
