Residents Affected - Some
Based on record review, review of the State of Ohio Board of Pharmacy Terminal Distributor Licensure of
Prescriber Practices, and staff interview, the facility failed to ensure medications administered intravenously
(IV) were obtained from a source with a Terminal Distributor of Dangerous Drugs (TDDD) license (which
allows a business entity to purchase, possess, and/or distribute dangerous drugs at a specific location)
specific to the State of Ohio. This deficiency affected four (Residents #3, #25, #37, and #42) of four
residents reviewed for medications administered by a contracted ancillary provider. This affected 26 current
residents (#3, #4, #10, #13, #14, #15, #18, #25, #30, #31, #34, #35, #37, #41, #42, #44, #46, #50, #56,
#63, #66, #67, #69, #78, #79 and #81) and twelve discharged residents (#85, #86, #88, #89, #90, #91, #92,
#93, #94, #95, and #96) identified by the facility who received IV fluids from the unlicensed source. The
facility census was 80.
Findings include:
1. Record review for Resident #3 revealed the resident admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses
included protein-calorie malnutrition, hypertension, and seizures.

Interview with the Corporate [NAME] President of Operations (CVOP) #60 on 12/06/23 at 9:54 A.M.
confirmed she was never provided with the company's Ohio Terminal Distributor of Dangerous Drugs

medications supplied by an unlicensed ancillary provider. All infusions ceased in September 2023 due to
state licensure issues.
Interview with Medical Director (MD) #70 on 12/06/23 could not be completed after several calls that went

Interview with a representative for the ancillary provider on 12/06/23 at 9:55 A.M. confirmed his company
did not have and had never had an Ohio TDDD license to provide medications in the state of Ohio, and he
did not understand the specific Ohio laws.
Review of the State of Ohio Terminal Distributor Licensure of Prescriber Practices
https://www.pharmacy.ohio.gov/, dated 08/24/23, revealed a TDDD license allows a business entity to
purchase, possess, and/or distribute dangerous drugs at specific locations. Terminal distributors of
dangerous drugs include, but are not limited to, hospitals, pharmacies, Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
organizations, laboratories, nursing homes, and prescriber practices. Distribution includes the
administration of drugs on-site to patients as well as providing medications to patients to take away from
the facility for later use. Dangerous drugs are defined in the Ohio Revised Code as any drug that meets any
of the following: 1. Requires a subscription; 2. Bears on the label a Federal Legend (Rx Only or Caution:
Federal law prohibits dispensing without a prescription); 3. Is intended for injection into the human body; or
4. Any drug that is a biological product as defined in section 3715.01 of the Revised Code. Ohio Revised
Code (ORC) 4729.51 states that no licensed manufacturer, outsourcing facility, third-party logistics provider,
repackager, or wholesale distributor shall sell dangerous drugs to anyone other than the following: (1) a
licensed terminal distributor of dangerous drugs; (2) Any person exempt from licensure as a terminal
distributor of dangerous drugs under section 4729.541 of the Revised Code (3) a licensed manufacturer,
outsourcing facility, third-party logistics provider, repackager, or wholesale distributor; or (4) A terminal
distributor, manufacturer, outsourcing facility, third-party logistics provider, repackager, or wholesale
distributor that is located in another state, is not engaged in the sale of dangerous drugs within this state,
and is actively licensed to engage in the sale of dangerous drugs by the state in which the distributor
conducts business. In general, the exemptions to Ohio's TDDD licensure requirements do not apply if the
prescriber practice is engaged in drug compounding. Compounding is defined as the preparation, mixing,
assembling, packaging, and labeling of one or more drugs. Compounding includes the combining,
admixing, diluting, reconstituting, or otherwise altering of a drug or bulk drug substance.
The deficient practice was corrected on 11/21/23 when the facility implemented the following corrective
actions:
•
The company no longer serves the facility with cessation of services effective on 09/22/23.

confirmed the facilities entered into the contract with the ancillary provider on 01/24/23 and began
treatment clinics in March 2023. CVOP #60 verified the ancillary provider brought their own supplies and IV
products to the facility. CVOP #60 verified the ancillary provider was based out of Illinois and used their own
staff for IV administration. CVOP #60 verified she was never provided with the company's Ohio Terminal
Distributor of Dangerous Drugs (TDDD) license. CVOP #60 verified the above listed residents received IV
infusions of medications supplied by an unlicensed ancillary provider.
Residents Affected - Some
Interview with Chief Executive Officer #80 from the ancillary provider on 12/06/23 at 9:55 P.M. verified his
company did not have and did not ever have an Ohio TDDD license to provide drugs in the State of Ohio,
as he did not understand the specific Ohio laws. He verified a Cease-and-Desist order was given in
September 2023, and no further infusions had taken place after this order. He verified two of his nurses
would come in the facility and provide services, one with an Ohio license and the other with a reciprocal
license from the state of Indiana to practice in Ohio.
Review of the State of Ohio Terminal Distributor Licensure of Prescriber Practices
https://www.pharmacy.ohio.gov/, dated 08/24/23, revealed a TDDD license allows a business entity to
purchase, possess, and/or distribute dangerous drugs at specific locations. Terminal distributors of
dangerous drugs include, but are not limited to, hospitals, pharmacies, Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
organizations, laboratories, nursing homes, and prescriber practices. Distribution includes the
administration of drugs on-site to patients as well as providing medications to patients to take away from
the facility for later use. Dangerous drugs are defined in the Ohio Revised Code as any drug that meets any
of the following: 1. Requires a subscription; 2. Bears on the label a Federal Legend (Rx Only or Caution:
Federal law prohibits dispensing without a prescription); 3. Is intended for injection into the human body; or
4. Any drug that is a biological product as defined in section 3715.01 of the Revised Code. Ohio Revised
Code (ORC) 4729.51 states that no licensed manufacturer, outsourcing facility, third-party logistics provider,
repackager, or wholesale distributor shall sell dangerous drugs to anyone other than the following: (1) a
licensed terminal distributor of dangerous drugs; (2) Any person exempt from licensure as a terminal
distributor of dangerous drugs under section 4729.541 of the Revised Code (3) a licensed manufacturer,
outsourcing facility, third-party logistics provider, repackager, or wholesale distributor; or (4) A terminal
distributor, manufacturer, outsourcing facility, third-party logistics provider, repackager, or wholesale
distributor that is located in another state, is not engaged in the sale of dangerous drugs within this state,
and is actively licensed to engage in the sale of dangerous drugs by the state in which the distributor
conducts business. In general, the exemptions to Ohio's TDDD licensure requirements do not apply if the
prescriber practice is engaged in drug compounding. Compounding is defined as the preparation, mixing,
assembling, packaging, and labeling of one or more drugs. Compounding includes the combining,

the ancillary provider.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Interview with the Corporate [NAME] President of Operations (CVOP) #60 on 12/06/23 at 9:50 A.M.
revealed the facilities entered into the contract with the ancillary provider on 01/24/23 and began treatment
clinics in March 2023. CVOP #60 verified the ancillary provider brought their own supplies and IV products
to the facility. CVOP #60 verified the ancillary provider was based out of Illinois and used their own staff for
IV administration. CVOP #60 verified she was never provided with the company's Ohio Terminal Distributor
of Dangerous Drugs (TDDD) license. CVOP #60 verified the above listed residents received IV infusions of
medications supplied by an unlicensed ancillary provider.
Residents Affected - Some
Interview with Chief Executive Officer #80 from the ancillary provider on 12/06/23 at 9:55 A.M. verified his
company does not have and did not ever have an Ohio TDDD license to provide drugs in the State of Ohio,
as he did not understand the specific Ohio laws. He verified a Cease and Desist order was given in
September 2023, and no further infusions had taken place after this order. He verified two of his nurses
would come in the facility and provide services, which one had an Ohio license and the other has a
reciprocal license from the state of Indiana to practice in Ohio.
Review of the State of Ohio Terminal Distributor Licensure of Prescriber Practices
https://www.pharmacy.ohio.gov/, dated 08/24/23, revealed a TDDD license allows a business entity to
purchase, possess, and/or distribute dangerous drugs at specific locations. Terminal distributors of
dangerous drugs include, but are not limited to, hospitals, pharmacies, Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
organizations, laboratories, nursing homes, and prescriber practices. Distribution includes the
administration of drugs on-site to patients as well as providing medications to patients to take away from
the facility for later use. Dangerous drugs are defined in the Ohio Revised Code as any drug that meets any
of the following: 1. Requires a subscription; 2. Bears on the label a Federal Legend (Rx Only or Caution:
Federal law prohibits dispensing without a prescription); 3. Is intended for injection into the human body; or
4. Any drug that is a biological product as defined in section 3715.01 of the Revised Code. Ohio Revised
Code (ORC) 4729.51 states that no licensed manufacturer, outsourcing facility, third-party logistics provider,
repackager, or wholesale distributor shall sell dangerous drugs to anyone other than the following: (1) a
licensed terminal distributor of dangerous drugs; (2) Any person exempt from licensure as a terminal
distributor of dangerous drugs under section 4729.541 of the Revised Code (3) a licensed manufacturer,
outsourcing facility, third-party logistics provider, repackager, or wholesale distributor; or (4) A terminal
distributor, manufacturer, outsourcing facility, third-party logistics provider, repackager, or wholesale
distributor that is located in another state, is not engaged in the sale of dangerous drugs within this state,
and is actively licensed to engage in the sale of dangerous drugs by the state in which the distributor
conducts business. In general, the exemptions to Ohio's TDDD licensure requirements do not apply if the
prescriber practice is engaged in drug compounding. Compounding is defined as the preparation, mixing,
assembling, packaging, and labeling of one or more drugs. Compounding includes the combining,
admixing, diluting, reconstituting, or otherwise altering of a drug or bulk drug substance.
The deficient practice was corrected on 11/21/23 when the facility implemented the following corrective
actions:
•
The company no longer serves the facility with cessation of services effective on 09/22/23.
