The Subcommittee on Health, chaired by Rep. Joe Pitts (R-PA), has rescheduled this week’s hearing on “Examining the Regulation of Diagnostic Tests and Laboratory Operations." The hearing will now be held Nov. 17, 2015, at 2 p.m., in room 2123 of the Rayburn House Office Building.
The subcommittee seeks to build upon the thoughtful dialogue achieved throughout the 21st Century Cures process, especially the feedback received in response to the committee’s white paper on A Modernized Framework for Innovative Diagnostic Tests. The hearing will provide members an opportunity to hear directly from officials at FDA and CMS about each agency’s respective responsibilities and areas of expertise in the regulation of diagnostic tests, as well as what their roles should entail going forward.
The committee is soliciting feedback on ways to improve the updated discussion draft as the legislative process proceeds.as they are posted. Related Items
