Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) Compliance Programs

Update: October 12, 2023

The FDA updated the Compliance Program Guidance Manual (CPGM) for the Inspection of Medical Device Manufacturers, Compliance Program 7382.845 to clarify current processes, incorporate new authorities, and update references and program contacts.

The FDA's compliance programs provide instructions to the FDA's investigators for conducting activities to evaluate industry compliance with the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and other laws administered by the FDA. Compliance Programs are made available to the public under the Freedom of Information Act. Compliance Programs do not create or confer any rights for or on any person and do not operate to bind the FDA or the public. This means a different approach may be used as long as the approach satisfies the requirements of the applicable statutes and regulations.

Compliance Programs for all FDA program areas may be accessed at Compliance Program Guidance Manual (CPGM).
