What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "Medical Innovation Acceleration Act of 2025," aims to amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. It seeks to exempt non-invasive diagnostic devices from being regulated as devices. The bill defines a non-invasive device as one that does not penetrate the skin or membranes, is not implanted, and causes only minor temperature or compression changes. It also specifies that these devices must not use ionizing radiation.
