In response to questions about health care reform, Mass device, an online newspaper for the medical device industry, spoke to reporters from NPR to provide them with in-depth questions and answers on the controversial medical device tax.

“With the coverage of the government shutdown, it’s really important to understand what the main argument against the tax is and why people are so categorically opposed to the medical device tax,” said Brian Johnson, editor and co- founder of MassDevice, who spoke to NPR in the article. “I was delighted to speak with NPR about some of the issues I have heard from device manufacturers expressing in the industry.”

Addressing questions about the tax itself and its place in the context of the government shutdown, the article was published on September 30 on WBUR, Boston’s NPR station. Discussing the role of the tax in the recent government shutdown, the burden the tax places on start-up businesses, and the interplay between medical device companies and the healthcare reform bill, author Carey Goldberg and Brian Johnson of MassDevice carefully discuss the past, present and future of the medical device tax.
