6 Questions to Ask When Starting A Medical Device Software Project

The medical device industry is booming. In the U.S. alone, this industry is expected to be a $208 billion market by 2023. That means there are a lot of opportunities in the coming months and years, particularly given the current state of the world as it relates to the COVID-19 pandemic.

So what are we talking about when we say “medical device”? Since the industry is so vast and covers everything from pacemakers to MRI machines to diabetes testing devices, it’s important to keep our definition more focused in this eBook.

When we refer to medical devices, what we’re talking about are external, handheld, patient-focused devices intended to make care easier and more efficient for users. We’re focusing on these types of devices because they typically fall under FDA Class I and II classifications (more on that later), which is where the bulk of our medical device experience lies.
