FAQ

Infusion Transport from Fort Salonga — common questions

Does Medicaid cover transportation to infusion therapy?

Yes, if the infusion appointment is at a Medicaid-covered facility and you are an eligible Medicaid member. Call MAS at 1-844-666-6270 at least 72 hours before your appointment. For biologic infusions on recurring cycles (every 4 or 8 weeks), ask MAS to set up a recurring authorization.

How do you coordinate return pickup after infusion therapy?

Infusion sessions vary in length — some run 2 hours, others 6+ hours. We coordinate return pickup directly with the infusion center staff. When you call to schedule, give us the facility name and expected infusion duration. On the day, the clinic notifies us when you are finishing and we dispatch for your return trip. No waiting at the curb.
