Details

Starting in August 2026, the high-risk requirements set forth in Articles 9 through 17 of the EU AI Act will apply in addition to the Medical Device Regulation (MDR). Nearly all AI-based “Software as a Medical Device” (SaMD) in Classes IIa through III will automatically fall under these requirements. If your Quality Management System (QMS) reliably complies with the MDR today, the key question is not whether the AI Act affects you, but how well your QMS is already prepared for it.

In this concise webinar, Torsten Herbert from sepp.med will show you the 5 gaps where MedTech companies most frequently fall short during audits. In 20 minutes, you’ll receive an honest assessment of your current status and specific audit questions that you can apply directly to your own organization. Afterward, we’ll answer your questions in a moderated Q&A session.

What you’ll learn in this webinar:

  • The 5 most common QMS gaps in AI-based SaMD: from missing AI risks in risk management to data governance and the responsibilities of your Notified Body
  • What evidence Notified Bodies require and why conformity assessments most often fail in practice
  • Three quick wins you can tackle tomorrow without a major compliance project
  • How to merge the AI Act and MDR into an integrated QMS compliant with ISO 13485 and ISO/IEC&nbspü;42001, rather than building a second system

Who is this webinar ideal for?

IT managers and CTOs at medtech companies with AI-based Software as a Medical Device, as well as Regulatory Affairs Managers who coordinate audit preparation
