Medical Device User Fee and Modernization Act

The Medical Device User Fee and Modernization Act (MDUFA) authorizes the Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) to collect user fees from medical device manufacturers.[1] It is reauthorized every 5 years.[1]

In the years preceding enactment of MDUFMA, the FDA's medical device program suffered a long-term, significant loss of resources that undermined the program's capacity and performance.[2]
