Bicameral, Bipartisan Bill to Increase Access to Home Infusion

Senators Mark R. Warner (D-VA) and Tim Scott (R-SC), joined by U.S. Representatives Vern Buchanan (R-FL-16), Chairman of the House Ways & Means Health Subcommittee, Debbie Dingell (D-MI), Diana Harshbarger (R-TN), and Terri Sewell (D-AL), reintroduced legislation that will ensure patients maintain access to home infusion therapy on June 14. The Preserving Patient Access to Home Infusion Act protects access to Medicare’s home infusion benefit by making clear that pharmacy services for home infusion therapy can be reimbursed and sets an appropriate rate for such services.
