 From a Reuters article,  "FDA Says It Won't Regulate Implanted ID Chip"

"....Sales of an identification chip intended to be implanted in a
person's body will resume immediately now that the US Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) has completed its review of the device, the chip's
maker Applied Digital Solutions Inc. announced...

....Applied Digital Solutions said it received a letter from the FDA
ruling that VeriChip is not a regulated medical device "for security,
financial and personal identification/safety applications." The decision
clears the way for the company to market and distribute VeriChip for
those purposes.

Applied Digital said it voluntarily suspended its marketing of the
device in the US 5 months ago pending FDA review."
