Infusion Therapy—90%
Services and Supplies Must Be Preauthorized With the
Trust Office
Benefits are provided for services and supplies
for infusion therapy including, but not limited
to, total nutritional therapy administered
intravenously and IV antibiotics. All infusion
therapy must be preauthorized with the
Trust Office and must be part of the written
treatment plan provided by the attending
physician including type and duration of the
program. All therapy must be provided under
the physician's supervision and the patient
must continue under the care of the physician
during the time the therapy is provided. The
Trust Office may require the physician to
periodically evaluate the therapy treatment
and certify that continuing therapy is required.
The plan reserves the right to select
a less costly supplier to provide the services
and supplies.
