  1. Yes, always

  2. Only if the device contains a prescription drug

  3. Only for out-of-state distributors

  4. No, never

The correct answer is: Yes, always

Wholesale distributors of prescription medical devices are required to be licensed by the West Virginia Board of Pharmacy (WVBOP) in order to ensure that they meet the regulatory standards necessary for the safe distribution of medical devices. This requirement helps to protect public health by ensuring that distributors comply with guidelines that govern the handling, storage, and distribution of these devices, which may impact patient safety and efficacy. The licensing requirement applies universally to wholesale distributors without exception, signifying the importance of regulatory oversight in maintaining the integrity of the healthcare system, regardless of whether the products contain a prescription drug or the location of the distributor.
