Centralized hospital packaging is allowed only within a close geographic range so that one licensed central facility can reliably supervise and ensure quality across the sites it serves. The rule sets a 75-mile radius for hospitals under common ownership to be serviced by a single centralized packaging license. This distance supports consistent packaging standards, easier oversight, and timely distribution while enabling the ownership group to share packaging resources. If facilities lie beyond that 75-mile limit, separate licenses or additional central packaging sites would typically be needed.
