CMS eyes big policy changes for new tech program in FY 2024 inpatient draft

April 11, 2023
By Mark McCarty
The U.S. CMS has a few changes in mind for the new technology add-on program (NTAP) for fiscal year 2024, including a proposal to allow manufacturers to apply for an NTAP payment only after the sponsor has filed a completed premarket application with the FDA. Perhaps more significantly, the deadline for FDA approval would also be moved up earlier in the calendar year, from July 1 to May 1, a change that could eliminate a year of NTAP eligibility for a significant number of products.

April 11, 2023
By Mari Serebrov
As country after country downshifts out of pandemic mode, the need for affordable COVID-19 therapies continues, especially in middle-income countries that are not included in current voluntary licensing arrangements. To meet that need, the World Health Organization (WHO) is calling on manufacturers of those drugs to extend the geographic scope of their licensing agreements to allow competition and price reductions so the treatments can be used where they’re needed most.

April 11, 2023
By Mari Serebrov

FDA sees class III designation for spinal spheres after more than nine years

April 10, 2023
By Mark McCarty
In December 2013, the U.S. FDA held an advisory hearing on spinal spheres used in intervertebral fusion procedures, a hearing that generated a recommendation that the agency classify these devices as class III devices. The agency finally followed through on that recommendation with a final rule that requires a PMA filing for these devices, concluding a process that took much longer than the typical rulemaking.

Freestyle Libre 3 sensor with smartphone app

Abbott warns against use of non-proprietary charging cables for Freestyle Libre

April 6, 2023
By Mark McCarty
Batteries used in medical devices don’t always perform as expected, but Abbott Laboratories has issued an advisory to users of its Freestyle glucose monitoring systems in connection with overheating of the batteries used in the device’s readers, a problem the company said is not related to the batteries themselves. Abbott Park, Ill.-based Abbott has received reports of battery swelling and overheating in the reader unit, but advised users that use of non-Abbott charging cables seems to drive the risk of such episodes, urging users to stick with the USB charging cables that came with the readers.
