According to the Department of State Health Services, there are currently 11 businesses licensed as device manufacturers under Chapter 431, Health and Safety Code, who would be exempt from licensure under the provisions of the bill. The current licensing fee is $495, paid biennially. Calculations below assume staggered renewal dates, resulting in reductions of 5 licenses in the first year and 6 in the second. The total loss in revenue would be $5,445 for the 2010-11 biennium; the total for 2010-2014 would be $13,365.
