The American College of Radiology® (ACR®) filed comments May 7, with the U.S. Department of Commerce recommending that contrast media and radiopharmaceuticals be excluded or deferred from tariff impacts until greater domestic supplies are available.
ACR’s comments were in response to a request for comments regarding Section 232 national security investigation of pharmaceuticals and ingredients issued by Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS). Section 232 allows the imposition of tariffs on imports that threaten national security. Pharmaceuticals and pharmaceutical ingredients are among several topics being considered by BIS.
The College indicated that contrast media and radiopharmaceuticals are integral components of medical procedures administered by qualified healthcare providers, often without alternative products, and should therefore be excluded or deferred.
