Hi Regulateers,
Looking at implementing eIFUs but since they're not accepted in all of our current markets, we'll still need to maintain a paper copy provided in the device packaging.
What are best practices out there on a hybrid approach? For example, is your paper IFU identical to your eIFU or do you maintain separate paper vs electronic where the paper would only contain languages for countries who don't accept eIFU? If yes, does your paper version contain a pointer to your eIFU website for the countries that do accept electronic or do you communicate this via an alternate method on the package labelling?
Also, do you use a 3rd party eIFU hosting service? Is it worth the $$ vs doing it yourself?
Thanks in advance!
