Small medical device companies would get fee waivers, while foreign companies would pay much higher fees.
Small medical device companies with under 20 employees would get a break on yearly registration fees: 100% waived for three years, then 50% for two. Foreign companies would lose all fee waivers and pay eight times the usual yearly registration fee.
Today, some small businesses can get waivers for annual medical device registration fees, and foreign companies pay standard fees. This bill would redefine 'small business' as those with fewer than 20 employees. These businesses would then be eligible for a 100% fee waiver for three years and 50% for two years. Foreign companies would be blocked from waivers and would pay 8 times the standard annual registration fee.
