Merit Medical Systems will immediately begin selling its Wrapsody medical device and withdraw its application for government transitional pass-through incremental funding
The decision comes after the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services deferred the application for Wrapsody--a cell-impermeable endoprosthesis used in outpatient settings--making Jan. 1, 2027, the earliest approval date.
The disposable medical device manufacturer's Chief Executive Martha Aronson said Thursday recent clinical data supports the effectiveness of the device in treating hemodialysis patients.
The company maintained that U.S. revenue from Wrapsody will be between $2 million and $4 million for the full year.
Shares declined 8.5% to $80 in post market trading. Through the market's close the stock is down 9.6% this year.
