- How this decision may impact current healthcare issues like reimbursement and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) final rule on regulating laboratory-developed tests as medical devices.
- The ambiguity of what comes next, and the importance of engaging members of Congress on these important decisions.
