Potential support
for infused or injected drugs
-
For various reasons, some practices may prefer not to undertake a buy-and-bill approach but still have patients that need therapy administered by an HCP. There are alternate sites of administration for injected or infused specialty drugs
-
Some practices may belong to an integrated delivery network (IDN) and may be subject to site-of-care policies that restrict where HCP-administered drugs may be administered
-
It is important to consult and understand your organization's policies and procedures prior to engaging these alternate sites
Examples of alternate sites of administration for injected or infused specialty drugs
Infusion centers already part of your system or local hospital
Stand-alone infusion centers
Home health providers
Infusion services companies that will administer medications on HCP's behalf
Other specialty providers that accept outside referrals for injection/infusion therapies in their infusion suites (eg, oncology centers, rheumatology practices, asthma clinics)
