Finally! Lower HSA Fees for imported medical devices
Finally! Lower HSA Fees for imported medical devices

It's good that HSA is taking feedback from SME on the ridiculously high fees that was charged for medical devices brought under the Special Authorisation Routes. When they have high fees, vendors will jack up prices for their profit margins, healthcare cost goes up...and patients continue complaining rising healthcare cost..
The SAR allows licensed importers and healthcare professionals to import unregistered medical devices for unmet medical needs due to lack of registered alternatives, for re-exportation purposes, and for non-clinical purposes like research and training.
Previously, the fees were set at $500. Under the new structure, the fees now range between $150 to $350.
