FDA Regulation of Mobile Healthcare Apps
FDA is proposing to oversee mobile apps that:
• Are used as an accessory to an FDA-
regulated medical device. For example, an app
could enable a health care professional to view
medical images on an iPad and make a
diagnosis;
• Transform a mobile platform into a regulated
medical device. For example, an app that turns
a smartphone into an electrocardiography, or
ECG, machine to detect abnormal heart rhythms
or determine if a patient is experiencing a heart
attack.
25
When is FDA Regulation Applicable?
Disclaimer: This regulation is in draft and being revised. Obtain legal advice before
formulating long-term plans. Draft guidance can be viewed on the FDA.gov web site:
http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/GuidanceDocuments/
ucm263280.htm#ft2
26
An app may be subject to
regulation if…
­  It is connected to a medical
device to display results
­  It serves as an accessory of
any kind to a regulated medical
device
­  It takes patient data and
interprets and outputs info for
use in clinical decisions
­  It uses device features (i.e.
camera, microphone) to gather
data for diagnosis
An app is considered be
outside regulatory scope if…
ü It is provides reference content
or training material
ü It provides suggestions related
to general health and wellness
(preventative vs. curative)
ü It is used to automate office
operations (i.e. billing ,
administrative) or patient
convenience (i.e. reminders)
ü It functions as, or supplements,
electronic health record system
What if my App Requires FDA Approval?
27
There are different FDA requirements based on the device classification.
FDA is seeking comment to minimize burden on low-risk apps that
qualify for regulation.
Source: MobiHealthNews 2010 Report
Key Takeaways
ü There is an explosion of mHealth apps, but
healthcare providers still lack patient-facing
self-service apps and mobile sites
ü There are multiple potential business
benefits to mobile-enabling self-service for
patients (and employees)
ü HIPAA compliance may be required for apps
that capture or transmit personal health data
ü FDA regulation may apply to clinical apps or
those that connect to regulated medical devices

Technology Challenges and
Solution Options
29
Top Challenges to Building a Mobile Strategy
30 Source: Insider Research & Netcentric Strategies
Mobile Enablement Challenges
Mobile platform fragmentation
§ New devices and operating system
versions released every year
Complexity of development
§ Need specialized skill-sets for
each platform: very difficult for
non-technical users to build apps
Nuances of mobile design
§ Mobile apps require different
design and interaction
§ Can’t have one app per system;
must consolidate functions
Hidden costs of maintenance
§ Adding new features is costly
across multiple platforms
31
Mobile Development Approaches
32
Approach Pros Cons
1. Outsource to
Services Firm
ü Full flexibility
ü Lower IT impact
✘ High ongoing TCO
✘ Lack of control
2. Outsource to Mobile
Solution Vendor
ü Domain expertise
ü Lower initial cost
ü Lower IT impact
✘ Lack of control
✘ Limited functional
scope
3. Custom build in-
house
ü Full flexibility
ü Full control
✘ High ongoing TCO
✘ Requires IT resources
✘ Slow ramp-up
4. Build on mobile app
development platform
(MADP or MEAP)
ü Full flexibility
ü Full control
ü Lower ongoing TCO
✘ Requires IT resources
By 2014 up to 40% of Fortune 1000
organizations will employ a mobile enterprise
application platform (MEAP) for app building
Source: MGI Research
Why Use a Mobile App Development Platform?
33
Inhibitor How a Development Platform Helps
Long Time
and High Cost
of Development
ü Assemble once, deploy everywhere to
smartphones, tablets, web devices
ü Embedded mobile best practices
ü Less software to install just use
browser
Need Data from
Many Sources
ü Standards-based web services
integration
ü Pre-built connectors to common
databases and enterprise systems
Onerous
Deployment and
Maintenance
ü Instant deployment to scalable, cost-
effective cloud infrastructure
ü Easily add new features to existing aps
ü Adapt to system or process changes
Key Takeaways
ü There is device and version fragmentation
within mobile platforms that may result in
unforeseen costs down the road
ü There are multiple development approaches
and technology options
ü Mobile enterprise platforms will reduce TCO
(total cost of ownership) over time, especially
with multiple mobile projects

  • 25. FDA Regulation of Mobile Healthcare Apps FDA is proposing to oversee mobile apps that: • Are used as an accessory to an FDA- regulated medical device. For example, an app could enable a health care professional to view medical images on an iPad and make a diagnosis; • Transform a mobile platform into a regulated medical device. For example, an app that turns a smartphone into an electrocardiography, or ECG, machine to detect abnormal heart rhythms or determine if a patient is experiencing a heart attack. 25
  • 26. When is FDA Regulation Applicable? Disclaimer: This regulation is in draft and being revised. Obtain legal advice before formulating long-term plans. Draft guidance can be viewed on the FDA.gov web site: http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/GuidanceDocuments/ ucm263280.htm#ft2 26 An app may be subject to regulation if… ­  It is connected to a medical device to display results ­  It serves as an accessory of any kind to a regulated medical device ­  It takes patient data and interprets and outputs info for use in clinical decisions ­  It uses device features (i.e. camera, microphone) to gather data for diagnosis An app is considered be outside regulatory scope if… ü It is provides reference content or training material ü It provides suggestions related to general health and wellness (preventative vs. curative) ü It is used to automate office operations (i.e. billing , administrative) or patient convenience (i.e. reminders) ü It functions as, or supplements, electronic health record system
  • 27. What if my App Requires FDA Approval? 27 There are different FDA requirements based on the device classification. FDA is seeking comment to minimize burden on low-risk apps that qualify for regulation. Source: MobiHealthNews 2010 Report
