Guidance about reduction of assessment fees for medical devices has been developed with the aim of:

• Simplifying the guidance used by TGA staff to determine if an abridged assessment and reduction of assessment fees is possible and appropriate.
• Making the TGA process of determining the level of reduced assessment fees for medical devices more consistent and transparent to applicants.

The guidance does not prescribe exact reduced assessment fee amounts for different circumstances that allow for an abridged conformity assessment. Instead, it describes scenarios where an abridged assessment may be possible and provides a description of how a reduced assessment fee may be determined by the TGA financial delegate.
