MedtechSourcebook

Disclosure

MedtechSourcebook is an independent directory. Here is exactly how it makes money today, and how that would change.

Today

  • The site earns nothing. It has no advertising, no affiliate links, no paid listings and no quote-request form.
  • Every facility is listed because of what it has filed with FDA. No company pays to be listed, and a listing cannot be bought.
  • No payment affects the order of any list: facility tables are sorted by company name, and the "newest" list by date of first listing.

Planned: featured listings

  • We plan to sell featured listings to facilities. None has been sold yet.
  • A featured facility would appear at the top of the facility tables, marked "Featured", so it is never mistaken for an unpaid listing.
  • Payment would not change what a listing says: the FDA registration data, the "FDA-registered" source and date, and the certification label stay exactly as they are for every other facility. A certificate shows as "verified" only after we have checked it on the certification body's register, whoever pays.

Planned: quote requests

  • We plan to add a form for buyers to request quotes from listed facilities. It does not exist yet.
  • If it starts, facilities may pay for the requests they receive, as part of a featured listing or per request. The form will state how requests are forwarded and who pays, beside the form itself.

What MedtechSourcebook is not

  • It does not manufacture, broker or sterilize devices, and it does not vouch for any facility listed here.
  • It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the FDA. FDA registration does not denote FDA approval of a facility or its devices (21 CFR 807.39).

We will update this page before any featured listing or quote request goes live.
