MinnPost.com: State delegation wants FDA to end delays in medical device review process
Minnesota's two senators and all eight members of Congress have sent a letter to the Food and Drug Administration, saying delays in review of medical devices "are hindering innovation, delaying patient access to new therapies, and undermining the U.S. medical industry's global leadership."
The letter was from Sens. Amy Klobuchar and Al Franken and U.S. Reps. Erik Paulsen, Collin Peterson, John Kline, Betty McCollum, Keith Ellison, Michele Bachmann, Tim Walz, and Chip Cravaack.
Minnesota is big in medical device technology, with more than 400 companies that employ more than 30,000 people.
