Released on April 29th, 2024, and&nbsp;published in the Federal Register on May 6th, this rule brings LDTs under the same regulatory umbrella as&nbsp;other&nbsp;in vitro diagnostic (IVD) devices. The FDA believes this change will better protect patient health and safety by ensuring consistent oversight and quality standards across all diagnostic tests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Join us for an insightful webinar where RQM+ Director for IVD Global Regulatory Affairs, Margot Borgel, and Senior Principal Consultant and IVD expert, Bethany Chung, will dive into the key provisions of the Final Rule, its impact on laboratories, and actionable strategies for successful compliance.
