IV and Enteral Therapies

IV and Enteral Therapies

  • Providing IV therapy service to a skilled nursing facility requires a higher level of experience and commitment than a traditional local pharmacy can provide. Proper training and ongoing education are critical to the success of an IV therapy program. LTC Scripts is committed and experienced in this exciting field of therapy.
  • From typical enteral feeding solutions and supplies to fluid replacement and antibiotics and more advanced therapies like TPN (Total Parenteral Nutrition), LTC Scripts will accommodate any patient that qualifies for this more advanced care.
  • Critical to this process is reimbursement, either to the pharmacy or to the facility. It takes a more experienced staff to make sure that although the therapy is warranted that eventual reimbursement is profitable to both parties. If not, we have your back to either file an appeal or find an alternative.
  • Keep in mind that allowing for the more advanced IV Therapy patients to be admitted to your service, you have increased your exposure to the referral community as a higher level service provider. Win-win for both of us.
