Shipping and receiving in the Southeast
Cryopreserved Wharton's jelly products are shipped overnight on dry ice in validated containers and require -80 degree C storage immediately on arrival; lyophilized formats are shelf-stable and are handled according to the insert supplied with the lot. Orthopedic practices and surgery centers in the Raleigh area should plan for a staffed freezer and a lot-logging step on the day a cryopreserved shipment is expected, since product should not sit at a loading dock.
Documentation an orthopedic group should expect
Before stocking any lot, an orthopedic practice should request the certificate of analysis specific to that lot, a donor eligibility summary, and a description of recovery and processing. Each lot carries its own identifier and is held in quarantine until third-party sterility testing and internal release criteria are met — ask for confirmation of that release before the product is used.
Account setup and NPI verification
Every account is tied to a National Provider Identifier that we check against the NPPES registry before ordering access opens. This step is identical for orthopedic practices in Raleigh and everywhere else Precision Biologics ships; the verified account, not the practice address, controls purchasing.
Board verification and ongoing support
Practices should independently confirm their licensure status with the North Carolina medical board and review, with their own counsel, whether a specific intended use fits within 21 CFR 1271.10's minimal-manipulation and homologous-use criteria. We do not make that determination and do not advise on clinical use, dosing or procedures. Precision Biologics supports NPI verification, account setup, and delivery of lot documentation, and can arrange a peer-to-peer call about product paperwork.
