Title: ●Medical Devices; Laboratory Developed Tests | |
Abstract: This proposed rule would propose to amend the Food and Drug Administration’s regulations to make explicit that laboratory developed tests (LDTs) are devices under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. ## In the Trump era there were HHS memos that FDA could not regulate LDTs; see Topic #1 at a 2021 blog and see "ZIP" file there. |
