This section discusses the regulatory laws enforced by the U.S. FDA with respect to medical technologies, and describes the procedures required for regulatory approval in the United States. In addition, reimbursement policies of Medicare and private insurers are discussed, and procedures are discussed for obtaining adequate reimbursement for a medical technology.

Upon completion of this section, you should understand the regulatory pathway that will be required for your project to gain approval. You should also understand the current status of reimbursement for your technology. Based on these assessments, you should be able to estimate the size and duration of the clinical trial required for regulatory approval and adequate reimbursement.
