Rep. Kline committee aide advocates for medical business

Posted by Katie Barrows on Sept. 20, 2013

A House committee health policy staffer has left the Hill to advocate for a medical technology business.

Todd Spangler has taken on the role of director of government affairs at Smith and Nephew Inc. after serving as senior health policy adviser for the House Education and Workforce Committee under Chairman John Kline (R-Minn.). Spangler also gained Hill experience dealing with health issues as a professional staff member for the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions.

Smith and Nephew Inc. is the U.S. subsidiary of a British firm that specializes in orthopedics, wound management, sports medicine and trauma related medical devices.
