MFRPS Maintenance - Indiana Department of Health Food Protection Division - Summary Over the next project period, The Indiana Department of Health (IDOH) Food Protection Division (FPD) plans to continue implementing a risk-based manufactured food system to better direct its regulatory activities toward reducing foodborne illness. IDOH FPD will maintain full conformance with the Manufactured Food Regulatory Program Standards (MFRPS) while continuing to hold high quality Food Protection Task Force (FPTF) meetings that serve industry and other regulatory partners. Indiana will also begin its efforts towards the full adoption of the FSMA Preventative Control (PC) for Human Food Rule through the Special Project. IDOH FPD plans to enhance program functions to better serve Indiana businesses and the public. Industry outreach will be increased through more one-on-one consultation services, and partnerships with State universities to provide HACCP, PCQI, and other needed trainings to high-risk processors and other businesses subject to full-PC requirements. Preventive controls training, and high-risk process training will be required of all inspectors to broaden the State’s knowledge base and regulatory oversight - furthering the State’s goal of becoming a more valuable partner within the IFSS.
