Microchipping To Begin In 36 Months

[~RENEE~]

The new Health Care Bill, H.R. 3200, just passed by Congress has within it the requirement that all people thereunder shall be microchiped. The plans for this microchipping has been in the hooper going back to December of 2004.
On page 1001 is “Subtitle C – National Medical Device Registry” which states,

“The Secretary shall establish a national medical device registry (in this subsection referred to as the ‘registry’) to facilitate analysis of postmarket safety and outcomes data on each device that … is or has been used in or on a patient…”

Well, the fact that they didn't even bother to check and see if the bill number was correct (the bill number is H.R. 3962, not H.R. 3200) doesn't exactly instill a lot of confidence in me that any of the other information is accurate.

Page 1,501, Line 19. That's where you can find this text in the current bill.

However, you'll also need to look up Section 519 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, since this portion of H.R. 3962 is amending that section of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, which can be found here;

So is this in HR 3962?

"Buried deep within the over 1,000 pages of the massive US Health Care Bill (PDF) in a “non-discussed” section titled: Subtitle C-11 Sec. 2521— National Medical Device Registry, and which states its purpose as:
“The Secretary shall establish a national medical device registry (in this subsection referred to as the ‘registry’) to facilitate analysis of postmarket safety and outcomes data on each device that—‘‘(A) is or has been used in or on a patient; and ‘‘(B) is a class III device; or ‘‘(ii) a class II device that is implantable.”

I am not a doctor or a lawyer, but this seems to be saying that a national registry will be created for devices that are "life supporting" or "life sustaining" (Page 1,502, Line 17) to determine their "safety or effectiveness" (Page 1,502, Lines 22-23).

It is referring to "Class III" (Page 1,502, Line 14) and "Class II" (Page 1,502, Line 16) medical devices. Not having any idea what that is, I Googled it and found this;

Devices in this class [Class II] are typically non-invasive and include x-ray machines, PACS, powered wheelchairs, infusion pumps, surgical drapes, surgical needles and suture material,acupuncture needles.

Examples of Class III devices which require a premarket approval include replacement heart valves, silicone gel-filled breast implants, implanted cerebral stimulators, implantable pacemaker pulse generators and endosseous (intra-bone) implants (with the exception of root-form endosseous dental implants which were recently reclassified as Class II).

I know Wikipedia isn't always the most reliable source, so you can verify the above information at the FDA's own website here;
Device Classification

In short, this doesn't seem to support the idea of "microchipping", but rather expanding the already existing medical device classification database, which can be found here;

Dont know about anyone else however I would want to know if a particular medical device such as an articical joint, valves etc had caused problems in other people.

The portion of the bill in question does not deal with micochipping humans, it deals with expanding the pre-exisiting medical database of inplantable surgical/medical devices

I just hope the state lawsuits pertaining to the 10th amendment violations is enough to kill this thing.

It's one thing to beat it in a vote. It's another matter altogether to pulverize its core by making it unconstitutional.
