Question 52: Is traceability achieved by implementing UDI?

Answer 52: The Regulation on The Supervision and Administration of Medical Devices (Order No. 739 of The State Council of the People's Republic of China) mentions that "the state implements the unique labeling system of medical devices step by step according to the product category of medical devices to realize the traceability of medical devices". The Notice of sFDA on matters related to the implementation of the first batch of unique identification of medical devices (No. 72, 2019) also mentioned that "registrants are encouraged to establish an information traceability system for medical devices with unique identification of medical devices, so as to realize full traceability of the production, circulation and use of their products. Medical device manufacturers and users are encouraged to actively apply unique medical device labels in their related management activities, explore the establishment of a traceability chain with upstream and downstream, and promote the connection of applications."

UDI system can realize the recording of medical device identification and product master data. The implementation of traceability also requires each link of the supply chain to record product history, location or application information through the traceability system.


Question 53: What are the steps taken to implement UDI in healthcare facilities?

Answer 53:

(1) Team building: involving all clinical departments, functional departments of consumables management and information department, which needs to be led by the hospital leaders for unified implementation and application.

(2) Study relevant laws and policies: UDI laws, policies, standards, etc

(3) System transformation: Involving all systems in the hospital, based on UDI database segment standard, system database architecture was transformed to realize the function of automatically filling data into the system through scanning. Upgrade the code scanning device.

(4) Obtaining national UDI data: choose interface interconnection or download to obtain the UDI database of the National Bureau.

(5) DI cross-code: cross-code association is carried out for hospital self-code, DK medical insurance classification code and billing code.

(6) Application: UDI related records are applied in various scenarios such as procurement, receipt, acceptance, warehousing, warehousing, use, settlement and adverse events. Establish hospital traceability system.


Question 54: Why should the data of consumables in medical institutions be coded?

Answer 54: The main reasons for cross-coding medical consumables data:

(1) Connect with the national UDI data database and put the consumables into the quality control of the hospital.

(2) Improve the efficiency of UDI code scanning in hospital. After UDI is implemented in the hospital of medical institutions, UDI codes are scanned when the physical objects enter the hospital. If the data of hospital consumables is not mapped with DI, UDI codes cannot be analyzed. At the same time, the authenticity of the physical consumables cannot be confirmed by the matching check between DI in the physical UDI label and DI in the national UDI database.

(3) DI has the unique identity attribute of medical consumables. The existing consumables data can obtain DI from the national UDI database through pair code mapping, which is conducive to the management of the unique identity of hospital consumables data.


Question 55: How does the DI code matching work in medical institutions?

Answer 55: Manual code matching is a lot of work and inefficient. The UDI Service Public Interest Platform can be used for automatic code verification. After registering and logging in to the platform, users can use the function modules of UDI-DI matching code, standardized data diagnosis and qualification management for free.

Question 56: Why can't I log in to UDI public service platform after registration?

Answer 56: UDI public service platform is for the use of medical institution users. When registering, they need to upload their medical institution practice license. After the registration is submitted, the platform will approve the account (usually 1-2 working days). Only after approval can you log in and use it. If you have any problems during use, you can call 010-84438357 for free consultation.


Question 57: Why is the to-code ratio so low?

Answer 57: Using UDI service public welfare platform for code matching, essentially, the data of medical institutions are automatically mapped to the data of the national UDI database. The reasons for the mismatch are as follows:

(1) The data of medical institutions are not standardized. The data in the NATIONAL UDI database are filled in by the manufacturer according to the information of the registration certificate of medical devices. If there is any difference between the two parties' data, it cannot be automatically matched.

(2) There is no such data in the national UDI database. At present, the data in the national UDI database are reported by manufacturers according to the progress requirements of national UDI promotion, and not all the data of medical devices have been reported.


Question 58: Can DI code be mapped to consumable national medical insurance classification and code at the same time?

Answer 58: The DI code master database is the national UDI database, and the national Medical insurance classification and code master database is the National Medical Insurance Administration database. The construction subjects and data contents of the two databases are different. At present, there is no underlying mapping between the two databases. But the two databases are provided by the manufacturer, the manufacturer also gradually in sync with a database maintenance two coded information, so, when making DI to code, if countries UDI database uploaded the consumables health classification and code, the DI of yards, consumables national health classification and code synchronization mapping.


Question 59: Where can I contact if I encounter problems related to UDI database operations during UDI implementation?

Answer 59: Questions can be submitted through the HELP Desk website of the NATIONAL Food and Drug Administration unique Identification Database for medical Devices.
