When is AI software a medical device in Malaysia?

Under the Medical Device Act 2012, software that serves a medical purpose can be a medical device. Registration and the establishment licence are covered by s. 5 and s. 15, and the Medical Device Authority is responsible. Ask the provider for proof of registration, as we found no open list. Legal status: 31 October 2026.

What should the contract say about patient data?

Record who is the data controller, where the data sit, how long they are kept and whether they may be used to train AI systems. Also ask for a procedure covering access requests, deletion and data breaches.

Is a demo enough to judge a diagnostic AI?

Usually not, because a demonstration shows good individual cases. Ask for studies or pilots with Malaysian patient groups, for the limits of use, and for how clinical staff check and correct results before anything reaches a patient record.
