01
Is The Company Accredited?
Buyers should rely on MDIA-approved verification channels once available, not screenshots, copied badge artwork, or unsupported marketing claims.
For Buyers
A clearer way to evaluate independent suppliers.
MDIA is building accreditation and verification tools to help procurement teams distinguish qualified secondary-market companies from unsupported claims.
Buyer Use
How MDIA can support diligence.
Accreditation is meant to make supplier review more disciplined. It gives buyers a common framework for evaluating independent secondary-market companies that handle new medical devices.
MDIA does not replace each buyer's internal purchasing, legal, clinical, or compliance review. Instead, it is intended to provide an industry baseline that buyers can reference during vendor evaluation.
MDIA does not provide product recommendations or certify the clinical suitability of any specific device.
Diligence Questions
Questions buyers should keep asking.
02
What Controls Are Documented?
Ask how the supplier reviews source documentation, maintains storage controls, handles exceptions, and keeps traceability records where applicable.
03
What Product Is In Scope?
Confirm whether the transaction involves new medical devices and request product-specific information needed by your organization.
04
How Are Issues Escalated?
Responsible suppliers should have clear procedures for complaints, recalls, returns, suspect product, and buyer communication.
Contact
Need to verify a claim?
If a supplier references MDIA accreditation before a public registry is available, contact MDIA directly. Provide the company name, badge claim, and any relevant context so the inquiry can be reviewed.
