All infusions are done in an infusion center, I do not know of any doctors that can or are doing it in their offices. My infusions are sent from the drug company to the infusion center. Always. I would investigate this further. I have even found drug companies offering programs for people who are disabled or limited income etc. I found I had to be my own advocate when it came to a lot of his stuff and do research on my own be an advocate so you can get the care you deserve to have to help you with the issues that you are desperately needing help with, don’t give up.

Here is the difference. Yes, the drug company sends drug to infusion center. But, in the new scenario, drug company charges me directly so the drug cost is applied to my drug coverage not my medical coverage even though shots are given through infusion center . The former way, Doctor received drug, administered and sent billing to insurance company which was applied through my medical coverage, not drug coverage. I then paid my insurance portion and amount paid went to out of pocket cost. If I pay directly for drugs, it is automatically applied to drug coverage and the out of pocket expenses do not apply for drug costs..

My evenity an one shot of Prolia were given in my endocrinologist's office but he is part of a county wide medical group
