Preserving Patient Access to Home Infusion Act

Bill 119 s 1058, also known as the Home Infusion Therapy Access Act, aims to make changes to the Medicare program in order to ensure that patients have continued access to home infusion therapy. This type of therapy allows patients to receive necessary medications and fluids in the comfort of their own homes, rather than having to go to a medical facility for treatment.

The bill seeks to clarify the original intent of Congress when it comes to home infusion therapy under Medicare, and to address any potential barriers that may be preventing patients from accessing this important form of treatment. By making these changes, the bill aims to improve patient outcomes and quality of life, while also potentially reducing healthcare costs associated with hospital stays and outpatient visits.

Overall, the Home Infusion Therapy Access Act is focused on ensuring that Medicare beneficiaries have the option to receive home infusion therapy when it is deemed medically necessary. This bill is an important step towards preserving patient access to this valuable form of treatment, and ensuring that patients can receive the care they need in the most convenient and effective way possible.
