Access to healthcare—and to healthcare technologies—promises to be a key issue in the 2008 presidential elections, likely bringing major proposals for revamping the ways that healthcare professionals relate to patient populations—and how they are reimbursed for those services.

In this FREE Webcast, “Medtech Policy and Regulatory Outlook,” hosted by MX magazine and sponsored by Enovia and AdvaMed 2008, a panel of experts looks at proposals likely to result in new legislation, and how they will affect the regulatory environment at FDA and in the global marketplace.
