Global Approval and Certification Readiness
SCRIMED prepares for domestic and global approvals without claiming them early.
This control plane translates current U.S., EU, UK, Australian, and global assurance expectations into SCRIMED-owned tracks, evidence gates, regional buyer packs, proof routes, and blocked claims before production healthcare operation.
Operating boundary
Prepare evidence now; claim approval only after qualified external review.
SCRIMED Global Approval and Certification Readiness organizes domestic and international privacy, security, AI governance, medical-device, clinical-safety, interoperability, and procurement evidence needed before production healthcare operation. It is readiness planning only. It does not grant legal advice, regulatory approval, HIPAA compliance certification, SOC 2/HITRUST/ISO certification, FDA clearance, ONC certification, EU AI Act conformity, GDPR compliance assurance, NHS approval, MHRA approval, Australian cyber certification, PHI processing authority, public-sector procurement approval, reimbursement assurance, production connector approval, or live clinical care authority.

Gates
SCRIMED cannot cross these lines until evidence, owners, and authority are complete.
Intended-use and claim classification
Decide whether each SCRIMED module is operations intelligence, non-device CDS candidate, SaMD review candidate, or blocked care-delivery scope.
- Required before: clinical claims, patient-specific workflows, FDA/MHRA/EU medical-device planning
- Evidence: intended-use memo, claims register, module classification table
- Blocked: diagnosis language, treatment language, autonomous triage, medical-device approval claims
Privacy and data-boundary approval
Prove whether a workflow remains synthetic/no-PHI/no-personal-data or needs HIPAA, GDPR, DPA, SCC, hosting, consent, and retention controls.
- Required before: PHI processing, EU personal-data processing, cross-border transfer, customer data ingestion
- Evidence: risk analysis, DPIA, BAA/DPA, SCC decision, retention schedule
- Blocked: production PHI, EU personal-data movement, customer upload, patient outreach
Security assurance and audit evidence
Move internal controls toward audit-ready evidence for SOC 2, ISO 27001, HITRUST, ISO 42001, and buyer security reviews.
