• Verifies that all necessary clinical documentation, physician orders, and payer authorizations are in place prior to initiating the transition.
• Communicates with the in-network home infusion provider to confirm patient readiness, delivery logistics, and nursing visit schedules.
• Monitors patients following transition to home infusion, including therapy tolerance and any adverse events, escalating concerns to the clinical team as needed.
• Identifies and helps resolve barriers to home infusion (e.g., caregiver availability, home environment, authorization delays) in partnership with the care team.
• Conducts holistic patient assessments, develops individualized care plans, and sets measurable goals consistent with benefit plan design.
• Advocates for the patient and maximizes benefit dollars by researching costs of services and in-network resources.
• Evaluates the effectiveness of the care plan on an ongoing basis and documents all eligibility reviews, outreach, and transition activities in a clear, objective, and timely manner.
• Other duties as assigned
