NHIA has developed a list of medications to serve as a reference when making site of care decisions for patients requiring intravenous (IV) or subcutaneous (SC) infusions. The list of medications reflects current U.S. prescribing practices and was compiled from home infusion providers medication dispensing reports and reviewed by NHIA’s Quality and Standards Committee. The NHIA Home Infusion Drug List includes more than 350 drugs across 37 classes with information on generic and brand name, therapeutic category, hazardous drug designation, and biosimilar designation. The list also identifies which drugs may qualify for coverage under Medicare Part B DMEPOS or Local A/B MAC policies. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eev3wp4A

As part of ongoing quality improvement activities, the National Home Infusion Foundation (NHIF) has released a draft standard definition for measuring home infusion medication adherence. Home infusion medication adherence is vital to achieving therapeutic goals, improving patient outcomes in chronic disease management, and reducing mortality from chronic conditions. The proposed draft definition contains examples and additional explanations for adherence. Reasons for nonadherence are also provided with the definition. NHIF requests public stakeholders to review and provide feedback. The comment period will close October 18, 2024.
