Documentation a pain management group should request first
Pain management and physical medicine practices considering a new biologics vendor typically start by requesting the paperwork tied to a specific lot rather than relying on a distributor's general claims.
Precision Biologics makes a certificate of analysis, donor eligibility summary, and lot release record available to verified accounts, along with supplier-reported characterization data for exosome products, so a practice's own reviewer can judge the product on its documented specifications.

Receiving and storing shipments
Cryopreserved Wharton's jelly products are shipped overnight on dry ice in validated containers and are designed to be logged in on arrival rather than left in a loading dock. Lyophilized exosome and Wharton's jelly formats are shelf-stable and are handled according to the product insert supplied with each lot.
Any practice placing an order, regardless of location, should assign a specific staff member to receive, inspect, and record each shipment against its lot number.
Verifying oversight before purchasing
Pain management practices should confirm their physician oversight structure and any state-specific purchasing rules with the North Carolina Medical Board and with their own counsel before adding a biologics distributor to their approved list.
Precision Biologics does not advise on dosing, injection technique, or indications for use. Those decisions rest with the treating physician and the practice's regulatory advisors.
How Precision Biologics supports account setup
Opening an account starts with NPI verification. Once approved, a practice can request documentation for the lots it is considering and schedule a peer-to-peer call focused on that documentation, not on clinical recommendations.
FDA has stated there are no FDA-approved exosome products. Exosome products are generally regulated as biologic drugs under section 351 of the Public Health Service Act, not as 361 HCT/Ps. Purchase and clinical use decisions belong to the physician with their own regulatory counsel.
These products are not FDA approved or licensed for any disease or condition. Information is for licensed healthcare professionals and is not medical or legal advice.
Frequently asked questions
Can an Asheville pain management clinic get pricing before setting up an account?+
Pricing is available to verified accounts only. A practice completes NPI verification first, then documentation and pricing can be shared.
What should a physical medicine practice check before adding this vendor to its approved list?+
Request the certificate of analysis, donor eligibility summary, and lot release record for the lot in question, and confirm your practice's oversight requirements with the North Carolina Medical Board and your own counsel.
Does the NPPES count of 46 providers mean there are 46 potential customers in Asheville?+
No. It is a count of individual NPI records with a matching taxonomy and a practice address in Asheville as of the retrieval date, not a market-size or lead figure, and it excludes nearby towns in the wider metro area.
