Trump Would Repeal Medical Device Tax, Clinton Noncommittal

If Donald Trump wins the presidential election next month, his administration would reportedly repeal the medical device tax, former Health & Human Services Dept. secretary Tommy Thompson said this week at the annual AdvaMed conference in Minneapolis.

A representative from the campaign of Trump opponent Hilary Clinton, Aneesh Chopra, said Clinton doesn’t have a comment 1 way or the other but “has a long history of negotiating with Congress to move her priorities forward, and everything will be considered while she and her transition team determine how to pass healthcare legislation in 2017 and beyond,” Bloomberg BNA reported.
