Statement from the Massachusetts Hospital Association
Regarding the FDA’s List of Facilities Reported to Have Received
Medications from NECC on or After May 21, 2012
October 22, 2102
“As the Massachusetts
Department of Public Health and federal Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) investigations into New England Compounding Center continue, today
the FDA issue two lists of hospitals and other care providers that
reportedly received products that were shipped from New England
Compounding Center (NECC) on or after May 21, 2012.
The Massachusetts Hospital Association (MHA) has been in touch with
several hospitals across the state that have reviewed the FDA list and
determined that it was inaccurate. In some instances, hospitals on the
list report that they have received no products from NECC.
Hospitals in other states are also reporting extensive errors on the
list. We understand the FDA list was derived from NECC records and were
not confirmed with hospitals on the list. We have contacted FDA to
inform them that the list has inaccuracies and to request that
corrective action be taken.”
