MACROLIFE

Our Company will open a network of service centers that will provide comprehensive warranty service throughout the Russian Federation. This means customers receive support and quality guarantees regardless of their region of residence or where they purchased the product.

What is included in warranty service?
Warranty service involves providing the customer with a range of services aimed at maintaining the functionality of the purchased equipment throughout its entire service life. Here are some key points of our approach to warranty service:
- Free repairs: troubleshooting faults caused by manufacturing or production defects is free of charge to the customer.
- Part replacement: replacing faulty components and assemblies with new original parts.
- Troubleshooting: conducting qualified diagnostics of the device to identify the cause of the failure.
- User training: consulting and training customers on the proper handling of the equipment, preventative maintenance, and service.
- Delivery and logistics: organizing the transportation of equipment to and from service centers.
- Documentation and reporting: maintaining detailed records for each repair and spare parts issue.

How is our customer support service organized?

For the convenience of our customers, our service operates as follows:

- The customer contacts our support service directly using any convenient method (phone, email, or website chat).
- The operator accepts the request, records the problem, and forwards it to a specialist.
- The specialist diagnoses the problem remotely or arranges for a technician to visit.
- Upon completion of the repair, the customer receives a report on the work performed and a warranty for the work performed.

Why is it important to have a nationwide warranty?

By providing guaranteed service nationwide, we demonstrate our commitment to our customers and confidence in the quality of our products. Every region has access to the same level of service, which helps build consumer confidence and strengthens our brand reputation.

Furthermore, this system allows us to promptly respond to customer requests even in remote regions, providing timely technical support and eliminating potential inconveniences associated with equipment breakdowns.

Thus, our guarantee of full coverage across Russia underscores our company's high level of responsibility and professionalism in the field of after-sales service and customer support.

Setting Up a Hotline: A Step-by-Step Guide:

A hotline is a specialized telephone number designed for prompt interaction with customers, users, or employees. It helps resolve a variety of issues, from product and service consultations to emergency situations. Below is a detailed diagram for setting up an effective hotline.

In Russia, the state exercises control over the circulation and use of medical devices, which is a fundamental principle of the healthcare system. Special permits are required for the legal sale, production, and use of medical devices.

Our company provides professional services for preparing and obtaining the following types of documents and permits:

Registration of a medical device in the State Register of Medical Devices and Organizations (Individual Entrepreneurs) Manufactured and Produced by Medical Devices—a key government portal enabling the legal sale of medical devices in Russia.
Document preparation, preparation, and execution of all types of research and testing (clinical, toxicological, technical) required for registration dossier completion.

Therefore, we provide full support throughout the medical device registration process, helping our clients successfully complete all stages of control and certification.

When assessing product conformity, it is necessary to identify a responsible person who guarantees compliance with established standards or bears liability for any violations. Traditionally, this responsibility falls to the manufacturer itself. However, if the manufacturer is located outside the jurisdiction of the Russian Federation, the representative's responsibilities are assigned to the authorized representative of the manufacturer (ARM). This specialist acts as a liaison between government agencies, organizations involved in the medical device market, and the manufacturer itself.

Therefore, at all stages—from documentation preparation to the actual registration and subsequent circulation of medical devices in Russia—the ARM performs important functions:

- Receives and sends documentation, requests, and other necessary information to and from the manufacturer, government agencies, and other entities involved in the circulation of medical devices.
- Bears legal liability (including administrative and criminal) for providing objective data and confirming product compliance with established standards. Exceptions may include cases of non-compliance caused by third parties, such as damage sustained during transportation by transport companies.

In addition to these responsibilities, the UPP is actively involved in processes arising from adverse events related to the use of medical devices. For example, if a malfunction or incident threatening a patient's health is detected, the UPP is also involved in the investigation and the adoption of appropriate measures.

With regard to direct aspects of registration:

- During the registration process, the UPP submits documents and acts as the applicant, representing the manufacturer's interests in both submitting applications and conducting testing, importing samples, and obtaining the necessary permits.
- After successful registration, the UPP continues to represent the manufacturer's interests by participating in the process of amending registration documentation and maintaining ongoing communication with regulatory authorities.

Therefore, the UPP plays a key role in ensuring proper document flow, compliance with quality standards, and adequate legal protection for the manufacturer in the Russian medical device market.

We offer support and assistance in auditing production facilities manufacturing Class 2a (sterile), Class 2b, and Class 3 medical devices. Implementation of a quality management system is mandatory, and for Class 3, the system must also extend to design and development processes. Our team provides comprehensive assistance in preparing production facilities for audits, verifying compliance with quality standards and manufacturing regulations, and provides recommendations for eliminating identified violations and improving the production process. Our experience and expertise enable us to successfully complete audits and minimize risks associated with medical device manufacturing.
