Under the EU’s Medical Device Regulation (MDR), the classification of software has long been a gray area. While Rule 11 specifically addresses Software as a Medical Device (SaMD), its interpretation has often varied between manufacturers and Notified Bodies. The original MDCG 2019-11 guidance helped, but ambiguities remained, especially for modular or integrated software systems.
The recently updated MDCG 2019-11 sets out how manufacturers of SaMD should approach classification, especially in modular or complex software systems. We spoke with Marijn Maas, a regulatory consultant at Peercode, to understand what’s new, what’s clarified, and what’s still open to interpretation.

Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) vendors have faced years of uncertainty around compliance for making products available on app stores. The big question: Are these digital marketplaces classed as ‘distributors’ under the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR)? It was unclear, until now.
With the release of MDCG 2025-4, the Medical Device Coordination Group has clarified a longstanding gray area around the role of digital marketplaces in the SaMD market. In a recent conversation with regulatory expert Marijn Maas from Peercode Regulatory Consultancy, we unpacked what this new guidance means for those people in your organization leading compliance efforts for SaMD.

Patient safety is paramount for medical device companies. It’s the cornerstone of both the design and regulatory approval process under the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR). One of the most critical and complex areas where safety must be proven is biocompatibility. Whether you’re developing skin-contacting sensors or implantable devices, demonstrating that your product is safe for the human body is critical for gaining and maintaining market approval in Europe.

Position Paper Digital Therapeutics
Digital Therapeutics (DTx) are evidence-based therapeutic interventions that are driven by high quality software programs to prevent, manage, or treat a medical disorder or disease. There lie many opportunities in the integration of DTx in the current health care system. There are several ways in which the DTx can generate value and the working method differs largely between products. As the number of patients with chronic illnesses grow over time and the future global digital therapeutics market size is predicted to continue to grow, the need for pharmaceutical companies to shift their focus towards DTx increases.

About Peercode Regulatory Consultancy
The new Medical Device Regulation (MDR) ensures that the emphasis is on patient safety, but also entails a lot of additional requirements. We have experienced ourselves from Peercode what this process entails for software products. Based on our own experience in marketing medical devices, we like to support other companies in this process. That is why we have a Peercode Regulatory Consultancy branch within Peercode, where we combine our personal experience and the experience of Peercode to help our customers. We are a small company and like a pragmatic approach. Thinking from the product and the existing processes and translating this into good documentation at both process and product level. We are happy to offer support to allow a system to grow, after which the customer is aware of all regulations and quality requirements and can put an innovative product on the market.

History Peercode
Peercode was founded in 1999 and started under the name in2sports. On 1 November 2012, this name was changed to Peercode. The reason for this name change was due to the fact that, in addition to the domain of sport and health promotion, more and more clients also have and implement projects in the medical domain. The name ‘in2sports’ raised questions about that and also had confusing associations.
The name Peercode is a combination of the words “Peer” and “Code”: “code” referring to software development, which is an important part of the company, and “peer” which is also strongly associated with the web/computers (peer-to-peer, peer review, etc.).
But also:
- ‘peer’ (Dutch for ‘pear’) refers literally to the pear orchards in the Geldermalsen region (Dutch municipality in Gelderland, Holland),
- ‘code’ because we encrypt the needs of our clients and our own ideas and translate them into inspiring applications.
Peercode currently has a balanced team of experienced professionals from various fields, such as management, marketing and sales, software architecture, web design, (cognitive) ergonomics and sport and health. Peercode has further developed over the past years and is now also active on the international market.
