Why Join MDMA?
MDMA is the voice representing the interests of innovative and entrepreneurial medical technology companies. We provide educational and advocacy assistance to more than 250 members. MDMA members all share a common goal: to provide patients and clinicians with timely access to safe and effective medical technologies that improve the quality of life.
Washington has never played a more direct role in a medical technology company's ability to succeed. Changes with the regulatory process at FDA, implementation of the health care reform law, increasing reimbursement challenges, the medical device tax and ongoing attempts to modify the patent laws are just a few of the key issues being discussed and debated on Capitol Hill.
I encourage you to get involved and help shape the future of our industry by joining MDMA.
Mark Leahey, President & CEO
