In this episode, Suzanne Levy Friedman, Partner at Honigman, discusses how medical device and digital health companies can navigate evolving FDA regulations and bring products to market more efficiently. She explains how regulatory counsel helps organizations determine whether products fall under FDA oversight, distinguish wellness technologies from regulated devices, and build effective commercialization strategies. Suzanne also explores the growing tension between rapid innovation, particularly in AI, and the FDA's responsibility to protect public health. Finally, she shares how clearer regulatory guidance and early legal involvement can help manufacturers avoid costly setbacks and better operationalize compliance.
