Please note that regardless of whether you use the wizard to review or approve the document or not at the time of receiving the document review task, the checkpoint for the definition of the date of the next review is the date of approval of the document.
This means that the tasks are created every x months (depending on what you have defined as the update frequency in the properties tab) from the date of approval.
For example, if you have approved the document on March 1, 2021, and the update frequency is 6 months, then a new review task will be created every 6 months from March 1, regardless if you proceed with the review through the wizard or not.
The Advisera GDPR toolkit includes all the necessary documents needed for you to complete your GDPR-compliance journey. Since you are processing special categories of personal data (health data), I recommend performing a Data Protection Impact Assessment, per Article 35. As part of the Advisera GDPR Toolkit, there is a DPIA Methodology document that can help you. Also, you need to consider informing the data subjects affected by these transfers. As part of the GDPR Toolkit, there are templates for Privacy Notices.
As an American company, you need to check whether you are subject to FISA 702 US Regulation. If yes, you need to take additional measures in order to protect EU data, according to Chapter V in GDPR - TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA TO THIRD COUNTRIES OR INTERNATIONAL ORGANISATIONS. The best transfer mechanism to use in this case is the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, per art Article 46 – Transfers subject to appropriate safeguards, but you need to take additional measures such as encryption of data-at-rest and in-transit, with a key stored on a server in EU.
The risks would be clearly reduced if you have full storage of data on EU servers managed by an EU organization.

1. Within the document of the scope of the ISMS in point 3.3 Networks and IT infrastructure, should the network segments, IT Infrastructure (routers, switches, etc.) be fully detailed or is it enough to place a graphic of our diagram network?
A general description of networks and IT infrastructure, like a diagram network, is enough to include in the ISMS scope document.

2. In the ISMS implementation project plan Doc, point 3.1 Project objective, can the date that is set as a limit be changed as the ISMS implementation progresses, or should that date not be changed once? what has been defined?
The information in the Project Plan document, such as the implementation date deadline, can be changed as the ISMS implementation progresses. You only need to ensure to get proper approvals and communicate with people affected by the changes.
3. In the ISMS Implementation Project Plan Doc, point 3.4.2 Project Manager, can two or more people be designated as project manager, or can it only be one person?
For small projects, only a single project manager should be considered as the main alternative (in many cases there won’t be enough work to justify designating more than one project manager). When more than one is designated, you need to make clear their responsibilities and authorities, to avoid overlap.
For further information, see:
4. In the ISMS implementation project plan Doc, point 4 Management of saved records, within the table is only the project plan document detailed or should all the documents that are of the ISMS be detailed (e.g. scope document , security policy, etc.)?
In section 4 of the Project Plan document, you need to include only the documents related to the management of the project, not the project’s deliverables. Project progress reports are examples of records related to this section.

To see a procedure that covers the identification of requirements compliant with ISO 22301, please take a look at this demo: Procedure for Identification of Requirements https://advisera.com/27001academy/documentation/procedure-for-identification-of-requirements/

If you do not develop completely new products or new services, then it is possible to exclude requirement 7.3. In other words, any change or adaptation of the product, creation of a new version of the product, or development of a new service means that requirement 7.3 is applicable.

You asked Once a lab is accredited to 17025, does this expire?
ISO 17025 accreditation is awarded for a cycle which could vary between two and five years, depending on the discipline and accreditation body’s policies. Before the end of the cycle, the laboratory needs to reapply for accreditation so that a new certificate will be issued before expiry. At this point the assessment will be as if as per original application, in other words more thorough.
You also asked are there defined time frames for external audits, eg ever other year or so?
Yes these are called surveillance assessments. The frequency depends on the accreditation body, but are typically annual. I suggest you engage with the accreditation body to obtain specific information for your laboratory.
