India is\ndependent mainly on imports for its medical device, which is about 80% of\nmedical devices are being imported. Given the dependency on import and time\ntaking technology development, there is a dire need for holistic support to the\nmedical device development and commercialisation cycle, which includes\nverticals like R&amp;D, scale-up, validation, regulatory compliance, market\naccess etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To\ncater to the numerous challenges, ICMR has developed different policies and\nprogrammes with a vision to support and enhance research and development and\ncost-effective medical device manufacturing to strengthen India&#8217;s healthcare\nsector and reduce its import dependency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ICMR involvement will scale up technologies in the\nMedical Device sector and commercialisation in public-private partnerships\nthrough the involvement of industries. The ICMR aims to bring innovation to the\nHealthcare sector by collaborating with healthcare professionals and\ntechnologists in the Medical Device Sector. To a certain extent, the\nassociation of professionals and technologists will reduce dependency on\nimports and provide quality healthcare in India. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"New_Policy_of_ICMR_for_Medical_Device\"><\/span>New\nPolicy of ICMR for Medical Device<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Health and Family Welfare\nMinistry and State Ministry launched the &#8220;ICMR \u2013DHR&#8221;. i.e. Indian\nCouncil Of Medical Research \u2013 Department of Heath Research policy on\nBiomedical&nbsp; Entrepreneurship &amp;\nInnovation for Medical Professionals, Scientists and Technologists at Medical,\nDental and Para \u2013 Medical Institutes and colleges.

MDMS aimed to incentivise and motivate local manufacturing\nin India and provide holistic support to the technologies\/ products nearing\ncommercialisation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under\nthis mission, ICMR invited Expression of Interest (EOI) from experienced Indian\ncompanies to join ICMR in accelerating the medical device and diagnostic\nproducts and their scale-up industry, thus catalysing their commercialisation\nfor public use. The ICMR significantly identified the priority medical device\n&amp; diagnostic products that were hugely contributing towards import under\nthe Product Ignition and Development Enabler (mPRiDE) program of MDMS.\nCompanies with extensive experience and demonstrated capabilities in developing\nproducts in the specified technology segment are encouraged to put up their\napplication under this Program. The medical device technologies at an advanced\nstage of development will be supported through this Program. As per the\nmission\u2019s terms and conditions, ICMR-MDMS aims to support indigenous\ndevelopment, scale-up and pilots of Make-in-India manufacturing of critical\nmedical device and diagnostic products.
