We offer flexible scheduling—including extended hours—to fit your busy lifestyle. Our administrative team works directly with your insurance provider, assisting with authorizations and coverage questions to help minimize financial stress and streamline your care.

The frequency of lupus infusions for symptom control depends on several factors, including the specific medication prescribed, the severity of your condition, and how well you respond to treatment.

Common lupus infusion therapies include medications like belimumab (Benlysta) and rituximab, each with its own schedule. For example, patients receiving belimumab will typically have an intravenous infusion every two weeks for the first three doses, followed by once every four weeks. For those prescribed rituximab, the usual regimen is two infusions spaced two weeks apart, with further treatments scheduled as needed based on your response and your rheumatologist’s recommendations.

Our experienced healthcare team works closely with your referring rheumatologist to tailor your infusion schedule to your unique needs. We monitor your symptoms, check for potential side effects, and adjust your treatment plan. Our commitment is to provide a comfortable, supportive environment throughout your infusion experience.

It’s important to attend every scheduled appointment and communicate openly with our staff about any changes in your health. Regular monitoring and follow-up are essential for effective lupus management.

At the Jean Walter Infusion Center, we offer advanced infusion therapies for patients with lupus. Insurance coverage for these treatments can vary based on your specific plan, but most major insurance providers—including Medicare and Medicaid—typically cover lupus infusion therapy when it is prescribed by your healthcare provider and deemed medically necessary.

Our dedicated team works closely with each patient to verify insurance benefits and obtain any required prior authorizations before starting treatment. We encourage you to contact your insurance company directly or connect with our experienced financial coordinators to better understand your coverage, including co-pays, deductibles, and any potential limitations.

By taking these steps in advance, we strive to ensure you are fully informed about your coverage and any possible out-of-pocket costs before your lupus infusion therapy begins at the Jean Walter Infusion Center.
