In order to facilitate the determination of the level and type of label verification required, the risks to the labeling operation should be evaluated. Then the level and type of verification for the labeling operation can be more effectively determined by technical experts and documented for compliance with the regulations. This type of evaluation and documentation is especially important with the recent incorporation of risk management into facility inspections of medical products by the FDA.
