Sen. Bill Cassidy, M.D. (R-LA), chairman of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee, has released a report detailing legislative and regulatory reforms to modernize the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
“Biomedical innovation holds enormous promise for the American people... But ‘innovation’ is meaningless unless it creates products that actually help patients,” wrote Dr. Cassidy. “While many parts of FDA work well, unnecessary bottlenecks slow patients and consumers getting the products they need.”
