Does Medicare Pay For Iv Antibiotics?
- 15786 POINTSContact Meview profileBob VineyardPROFounder, Georgia Medicare Plans, Atlanta,GAUnder most situations, drugs administered via IV are covered by Medicare Part A (if you are an inpatient in a hospital) or Part B (if administered in an outpatient clinic or in a doctors office). If the drug is self administered in your home the cost of the drug might be covered under your Part D.Answered on May 6, 2013+11 0+1 this answerflag this answerview more answers by Bob Vineyard

Medicare will not pay for IV antibiotics that are administered in ones home. This applies to all infusion therapies, not just those that are used for antibiotics.Answered on May 6, 2013flag this answer
