Good morning Pauline,
Please, please advocate to get infusions/injections at a medical . The prescribing doctor’s office can (and will) code this accordingly; unfortunately, each insurance company has different (and horrid) co-pay/co-insurance rules which change annually. So you might still,have a co-pay.
Even under Medicare with supplement, because my home injection started in November, I had to,pay the first 2k last year; I always want to know ‘who,put the hell in healthcare?’
Wishing you all the best.
Jane in NC

@janeinnc ok thank you for the information! I have NYS marketplace insurance (it sounds like you might too with the $2k max out-of-pocket plan?), so I will likely still have a co-pay, but they’re usually not bad as they’re often coded like chemotherapy and wind up being around $15 or so. I have usually met that out-of -pocket by May (if not sooner!) with my frequent-flyer visits at the ER, specialists, imaging etc.

Thanks again 😊
