Looking for advice where my wife may be able to get her monthly infusions. Her current doctors arrangement s for infusions is so booked that it is all most impossible to get an appointment. Ideally this would be an arrangement where the drug is covered under part B of Medicare, as she currently has. Any help or places to call would be greatly appreciated.

I don't have any direct experience but on visits to Villages Hospital I noticed that one of the floors is marked as for infusions.

All, here is my update. Did a Google search, found out CVS has an arm the does this, however, it is done in the home, lots of questions regarding insurance coverage, still investigating this option, but does not look good. Called insurance company (Medicare supplemental), they did provide some info, but did not provide a location or provider for this infusion, and sent me to Medicare.gov. Called TVRH, and spoke with the outpatient infusion center, and they do NOT supply the particular medication my wife is on. So now we are probably looking for another RA specialist......
Thanks to all for responding, especially the PMs.

Check out Florida Cancer. My wife gets injections there for osteopenia. Her primary care physician recommended them.
