Seminar: Shifting the Focus of your Quality System

Tuesday, June 11th, OakBrook

Industrial and manufacturing jobs are leaving the United States. It’s a theme we’ve been hearing for years and the reason is that the labor is cheaper and employment regulations are less strict in other countries. We’re now hearing that costs overseas are increasing and organizations are reassessing business models so could manufacturing jobs be rebounding in the US? Has your quality system helped you become more competitive? If you’ve been focusing on the traditional approach to quality to bring you into regulatory compliance with FDA’s Quality System Regulation, then you may want to hear how a progressive approach to quality will improve productivity and make you more competitive in the global marketplace. Come hear SafeLink Consulting’s expert on quality assurance help you turn the corner on your quality system approach and better your business. Register Now!

Medical Device excise Tax – The Facts

  • Effective Jan. 1, 2013, some dental laboratories will be responsible for collecting and remitting a 2.3 percent excise tax on sales of taxable medical devices.
  • Dental laboratories that make direct MDT payment to the IRS will have to use Form 720 which is available at www.irs.gov to report and pay the tax. This form has to be filed quarterly and then a final Form 720 is submitted at the end of each year.
  • Businesses must use electronic funds transfer to make excise tax deposits. This can be done using the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (www.irs.gov/efile) or same day wire transfers can be made from banking institutions.
  • The quarterly filings dates are April 30, July 31, October 31 and January 31.
  • Excise taxes filed and deposited must be at least 95 percent of the net tax liability for the quarter. If your dental laboratory has an accountant or bookkeeper please make sure they are aware of this new tax.

Dental laboratories make crowns, bridges, dentures, dental implants, mouth guards and orthodontic devices such as retainers and sleep apnea devices and snore guards. The materials and components used to make these items (such as alloys, ceramic, resins, abutments, individual denture teeth, etc.) are listed with the FDA using FDA product codes.
