Confused about UDIs? Learn how they work and how to get yours.
We literally purchased real UDIs for these videos!
“I have attended the video course entitled "Understanding UDIs" by OpenRegulatory, available on Formwork. The course provided a very clear explanation of a complicated topic in a very simple and didactic way, and the content was very informative. The outline of the course website was also very clear, and I got the certificate right away. The instructor was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.”
The theory of UDIs is great - "let's create some sort of way to uniquely identify medical devices, like with barcodes!".
But the implementation is a catastrophe. You have to purchase UDIs from different vendors with ancient IT systems and opaque pricing models. And even if you manage to purchase your UDI, it's very complicated to understand what the hell your UDI-DI, UDI-PI and Basic UDI-DI are, because every vendor has different names for them.
It's a mess.
We recorded videos for you to show you how you can get it done easiy. This is not an abstract video course on theoretical ramifications of UDIs. Instead, it's hyper-concrete as we literally purchase UDIs ourselves to show you how the system really works.
Yes, we literally purchased real UDIs for this video course. This is as concrete as it gets. You'll watch us how we purchase UDIs from GS1 and even create a label for our imaginary medical device. After this, you'll know what to do. Watch the video below to see how that works.
The UDI course is a one-time purchase of only 399€. This is a reduced price because we're still working on it! Among other things, we'll still be adding videos on how to purchase UDIs at IFA, another UDI provider.
You can purchase the UDI course now and get access right away! If you don't have a Formwork account, register now, then head over to the the course section, select the UDI course, navigate to a paid video and click "purchase".
