Ethical standards and compliance with applicable laws are critical to the medical technology industry's ability to continue its successful collaboration with healthcare professionals. To enhance this relationship MTAA and the Medical Technology Association of New Zealand have jointly developed a Code of Practice to facilitate ethical interactions with healthcare professionals and others within the medical technology industry.
The 3rd Edition of the MTAA/MIANZ Code of Practice commenced on 1 May 2008. Explanatory notes for the Code will continue to be updated as they become available.
The 3rd Edition of the MTAA/MIANZ Code of Practice is available here.
Understanding the Code of Practice Brochure is available here.
MTAA has planned a broad communications campaign during May and June 2008 to ensure all stakeholders are aware and have an understanding of the Code of Practice and its requirements.
