Home IVIG infusions Northern California

[Luna]

Anyone know the name of a company that does IVIG infusions in the home? We're in Northern California.

Sutter Infusion and Pharmacy. We are near Stanford.

We've used Biofusion Immunoglobulin Pharmacy (just purchased by Kroger, and renamed Kroger Specialty Pharmacy) for the drug and arrangements, and they sent an infusion RN from the Nurse Registry in Palo Alto to our house. Were very happy with both.

 

Kroger Specialty Pharmacy only does infusion treatments, is very professionally led, and I was pleased with the pharmacist I spent quite a bit of time interviewing. They have their own network of home infusion nurses or nursing organizations, so they can likely schedule a treatment on much shorter notice than just via Nurse Registry.

PS. Accredo, the Anthem BC in-network home infusion company also contracts with a national network of infusion nurse organizations. They'd assured me that they could send an infusion RN anywhere in the Bay Area. No personal experience there though.
