Firm Action

Vygon sent an Urgent Medical Device Recall letter dated January 15, 2015, to all affected customers via email or courier service. The letter instructs consignees to check stock for products included in the scope of the recall, count and document the affected inventory on the "Recall Acknowledgement and Inventory Return Form" and fax or email the form to Vygon. Vygon customer service will then contact the customer to issue a Return Merchandise Authorization Number so the inventory can be replaced at no cost. Distributors were provided with instructions on how to handle product that was further distributed by them. If after 30-days, product is not returned from each consignee, Vygon will follow-up with the consignee to obtain a status of the product return. Customers with questions were instructed to contact Vygon Customer Service at 1-800-473-5414, or by e-mail at [email protected].
