This is a valuable opportunity to help shape this regime and change people's experiences with medical devices for the better.

This webinar is a chance to hear more about this consultation, what it covers and how to respond. It is one of two webinars on this topic. On 14 October 2021, another webinar aimed at the wider public, including patients has been scheduled.
