Discussed concerns over the impact medical device and drug FDA regulation has on innovation, jobs, patients and the economy. Addressed changes to 510K process and concerns over an increasingly unpredictable regulatory system. Adressed concerns over lack of effective communication between FDA and industry, as well as administrative issues such as concerns over the FDA's access to training and education on the newest technologies. Addressed concerns over proposed new limitations on the scope of RUO and IUO products. Discussed concern that the proposed restrictions would negitively impact the practice of developing and validating clinical tests using RUO and IUO components, and would significantly change the way manufacturers can promote and sell their products, and in so doing irreparably harm innovation in this area. Addressed BIOCOM's support for a 12 year data exclusivity period for biologic products and our strong opposition to any proposed reduction to the 12 year data exclusivity period. Addressed opposition to the IOM's recommendation to dismantle the FDA 510K process. Support HR 2182, The Generating Antibiotic Incentives Now ("GAIN") Act.
