Outpatient Infusion Services

Your doctor may prescribe infusion therapy (medication typically given intravenously by needle or catheter) for those conditions that cannot be treated effectively by oral medications. Infusion therapy is commonly used to treat infections that are unresponsive to oral antibiotics, cancer (related pain), dehydration, certain gastrointestinal diseases/disorders, and other conditions. Specialty infusion therapies may be used to address congestive heart failure, Crohn's Disease, immune deficiencies, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and more. In the past, if you received infusion therapy, you had to do so through an inpatient hospital setting for the duration of treatment. Now, a variety of infusion therapy settings are available allowing you to incorporate your treatment into your normal lifestyle and work activities.

Please note: All services require a physician’s order.
