DDPS PDE Editing Update FDA NSDE File

Currently, as detailed in the November 28, 2018 HPMS memo titled “November 2018 Updates to the Drug Data Processing System (DDPS)", CMS obtains a new FDA NSDE file each month on the 4^th business day prior to the 1^st day of the following month for DDPS PDE editing.

CMS was unable to obtain an updated file on March 26^th for use beginning in April. On March 30^th , we were able to obtain a new FDA NSDE file and this file will be used for PDE editing beginning on April 1^st.
