US government permanently repeals medical device excise tax

par John R. Fischer, Senior Reporter | December 23, 2019

"The specter of the reimposition of the punitive medical device tax threatens patients, American jobs, and medical innovation," said Senator Toomey in a statement at the time. "It's time to end this uncertainty once and for all and finally repeal the medical device tax.”
