Medical Device Tax Debate Punted To Round Two
A Republican source told The Huffington Post that changes to Obamacare’s tax on medical devices will not be in the final debt ceiling/CR deal being constructed by the Senate. But there will be a pledge, however informal, to consider that issue when the two sides reprise this debate when the next continuing resolution to fund the government expires on Jan. 15, 2014.

“The package does not include a delay or repeal of the medical device tax, but some assurance would be given by both sides that the issue will remain on the table for Round 2 of negotiations,” the source said.
