Just days before their August break, the House and Senate passed legislation to ensure the continuation of the Medical Device User Fee and Modernization Act of 2002, which was initially signed into law to provide FDA with greater resources for the timely review of devices submitted for approval. Without Congressional action to modify provisions of the original user-fee act, the law would have likely expired on September 30 of this year.

The new bill, known as the Medical Device User Fee Stabilization Act of 2005, was signed into law by President Bush on August 1.
