Event Overview:
Approximately 10 years ago “Device Lag” was a major topic of discussion related to the Japanese regulatory environment. Currently, the Japanese government and the PMDA have improved their processes and “Device Lag” is no longer an issue. As a result, through good preparation it is now possible to launch medical devices in the Japanese market in a timely manner. You now have more control over how quickly your product is launched.

Japan has a universal health insurance system and the government determines reimbursement device and physician fees. Reimbursement will be based on the regulatory approval conditions; therefore, reimbursement strategy should be part of your overall business plan. Your goal should be receiving good reimbursement approval and a successful launch in the Japanese market and not simply regulatory approval.
