"I was extremely impressed with Rochester Home Infusion. The initial education was excellent. All meds & materials were given to us in the hospital before discharge. The patient education materials were great - I especially liked the sheet that showed me how to lay out all materials before I began the injections. I received several follow up phone calls asking how the therapy was going. Your staff made me feel comfortable giving IV antibiotics through my husband's PICC line. Thank you! You provide awesome service."

Even if they can't stop all infections, scientists have found that vaccines still offer good protection against severe disease. And if you get a booster, it will likely help restore some protection against infection.

"This experience was far beyond what I expected. My antibiotics were delivered on time and I had all the supplies I needed.
The patient instructor for my PICC line was so thorough. I had absolutely no questions because everything was so well covered. The pharmacist monitored my labs weekly and was on top of any abnormal levels. I am so grateful for all of you. This was truly a wonderful experience!! :) "

COVID-19's Effect on Medicare Beneficiary Behavior

A new infographic produced by CMS presents information related to Medicare beneficiaries' experiences with the COVID-19 pandemic. Survey data from the summer of 2020 show that 21% of beneficiaries reported needing health care for something other than COVID-19, but not getting it because of the pandemic. Among the types of health care needed (but foregone), 36% was treatment for an ongoing condition, and the most common reason for forgoing care was not wanting to risk being at a health care facility.
