Medical Device User Fee Amendments; Stakeholder Meetings on the Medical Device User Fee Amendments of Fiscal Years 2028 to 2032 Reauthorization; Request for Notification of Stakeholder Intention To Participate

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or the Agency) is issuing this notice to request that public stakeholders--including patient and consumer advocacy groups, healthcare professionals, and scientific and academic experts--notify FDA of their intent to participate in periodic consultation meetings on the reauthorization of the Medical Device User Fee Amendments (MDUFA). The statutory authority for MDUFA expires September 30, 2027. At that time, new legislation will be required for FDA to continue collecting user fees for the medical device program. The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) requires that FDA consult with a range of stakeholders in developing recommendations for the next MDUFA program. The FD&C Act also requires that FDA hold discussions (at least every month) with patient and consumer advocacy groups during FDA's negotiations with the regulated industry. The purpose of this request for notification is to ensure continuity and progress in these monthly discussions by establishing consistent stakeholder representation.
