Home Infusion and Specialty Pharmacy in Arkansas

• IV antibiotics at home. Outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy (OPAT) for serious infections such as osteomyelitis and cellulitis, with care of the PICC line, so IV treatment continues at home rather than in the hospital.
• Rheumatology infusions. Infused biologics such as Benlysta (belimumab) for lupus and Orencia (abatacept) for rheumatoid arthritis.
• Intravenous immune globulin (IVIG). Immune globulin by vein, such as Gammagard Liquid and Privigen, for primary immunodeficiency and CIDP, given at home by a licensed nurse.
• Subcutaneous immune globulin (SCIG). Immune globulin given under the skin with a small pump, such as Hizentra and Xembify. A nurse trains the patient or a caregiver to give it at home.

MedRx delivers medications and supplies to the patient’s home at no charge. Next-day delivery is available in Arkansas; delivery times vary by location.

When a therapy requires a nurse, MedRx sends a skilled, trusted and licensed nurse from an accredited nursing agency in Arkansas. The nurse administers the infusion, cares for the IV line and draws labs when the prescriber orders them.

MedRx pharmacists are on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

MedRx works with many health plans, including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Humana, Medicare, UnitedHealthcare and many others.

Before the first delivery, the intake team verifies coverage and handles prior authorization with the prescriber’s office.
