UK’s Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will enhance collaboration to accelerate innovation, strengthen patient safety, and reduce transatlantic barriers in medical technology and AI. This includes the launch of the MHRA’s National AI Commission, featuring experts from both countries, to guide the safe and transparent use of AI in healthcare. Additionally, new international reliance routes will facilitate faster UK market access for medical devices approved by trusted regulators, such as the FDA. These initiatives aim to harmonize regulations and expedite patient access to cutting-edge medical technologies.
