          Medical technology lobby AdvaMed is fed up with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. In a letter sent to the agency and shared with STAT, the group urged CMS to act on finalizing a pathway that would make reimbursement for breakthrough devices easier. 

          CMS has been working on implementing the pathway since 2021. A CMS spokesperson told STAT the agency is working “expeditiously” to finalize it. Scott Whitaker, CEO of AdvaMed, said the device industry is tired of waiting.
