As the largest end market in the Middle East, Saudi Arabia ranks first in per capita healthcare expenditure in the region. In 2020, the government budget allocated 167 billion rials (approximately $44.5 billion) for the healthcare industry. However, local companies in Saudi Arabia are mainly engaged in manufacturing consumables or serving as distributors for foreign companies, and most medical devices are usually imported from other countries. Therefore, the medical device market in Saudi Arabia is very large. DEKRA Certification UK Ltd has been confirmed by the Medicines, Technology and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) as one of four UK certification bodies currently dedicated to the certification of UK medical devices to ensure the safety and effectiveness of devices safely provided to the UK public. DEKRA has become the first organisation to complete the newly designated process, which any potential organisation must now go through before being allowed to certify medical devices in the UK. Certification bodies are MHRA-appointed organisations responsible for assessing whether manufacturers and their medical devices comply with the UK Medical Devices Regulations 2002. Manufacturers were required to apply to UK certifiers for certification except for equipment with minimal risk. Only after UK Conformity Assessment (UKCA) was Assessed could their products be sold in the UK market (England, Wales and Scotland). After appropriate assessment, an approved certification body may certify the product, allowing the manufacturer to affix the UKCA mark to its certified products. MHRA officer Laura Squire said: “This is an important milestone in ensuring that patients across the UK have access to high quality medical devices. Certifying bodies play a key role in the supply of medical devices and expanding capacity is crucial to the successful development of the UK’s medical device regulatory regime.” The MHRA’s detailed evaluation process is designed to ensure that any organization wishing to certify a medical device can conduct a fair and objective evaluation and has an appropriate quality control system and adequate resources. The MHRA is currently assessing applications from six other organisations to become accrediting bodies.
