I came across a discussion topic on this forum from 2021 regarding the global supply chain crisis during the COVID-19 pandemic and its recovery. The post reminded me about recent events affecting the medical device industry. Concerns over tariffs have led companies to stockpile supplies, raw materials, or equipment. H.R. 1 will also impact requirements for Medicaid as well as cut federal funding for Medicaid and the ACA which will put restrictions on healthcare facilities. The FDA has also been affected by cuts which have slowed down device approvals. What challenges or improvements have you seen recently in the industry?
