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]
