FAQ
QA for healthcare and MedTech: your questions.
Can your testers work under IEC 62304 and ISO 13485?
Our regulated-industry testers have worked inside those quality systems and follow your procedures. We do not hold your device certification. Your quality system stays yours.
How do you handle protected health information?
We do not need it. Test environments should use de-identified or synthetic data. Where access to real data is unavoidable, we sign the agreements your privacy officer requires and restrict access to named people.
Do you provide validation documents?
Yes. Technical writers and business test analysts write test protocols, execute them and produce summary reports in your document templates.
Which engagement model do you recommend for healthcare and MedTech?
Usually managed qa (qaaas). Evidence, strategy and traceability are a service you want one accountable owner for. Managed QA (QAaaS) starts in about 21 days, mid-level rates begin at $48 an hour and the minimum term is 6 months. The five models are compared at /outsourcing/.
