Destroy, auction, donate.
Destruction is the simplest method. The drug regulatory system has the least responsibility and there will be no follow-up problems after disposal. However, if qualified medical devices are destroyed, the waste of social medical resources is another problem. Neglected problem. Auction and donation methods are only limited to handling qualified products among confiscated medical devices, but there are still many problems with these two processing methods: First, even if the confiscated medical devices have sufficient evidence to prove that they come from legal manufacturers, taking into account storage, etc. The reason is that it should be inspected before auctioning or donating, and it can only be auctioned after confirming that there is no problem with the quality. Who will pay for the inspection costs is a big problem.
Second, if problems arise after a medical device is auctioned or donated, such as causing damage or misdiagnosis to the user, who should bear the responsibility?
Third, how does the drug regulatory department ensure that there are no problems such as lining one's pockets during auctions or donations? If such problems are exposed, it will cause great damage to the image of the drug regulatory system. For the above reasons, the current drug regulatory system rarely auctions or donates confiscated medical devices, but prefers to destroy them with less responsibility and simple procedures.
