Suppliers oppose government-proposed medical devices bill

Ljubljana, 19 March - Several business chambers and organisations have called on the government to amend the proposed medical devices bill, arguing that it hampers the work of medical device suppliers and reduces the availability of such devices. They are particularly opposed to the proposed system of fees and fear producers could start leaving Slovenia.
