Infusion for Health Expands Home Infusion Services to Enhance Patient Access and Flexible Specialty Care
Infusion for Health, a leading provider of specialty infusion therapy services, has announced the continued expansion of its Home Infusion division, reinforcing its commitment to delivering high-quality infusion care across multiple treatment settings. The company is increasing investments in clinical expertise, operational infrastructure, and geographic reach to meet the growing demand for flexible, patient-centered infusion services that extend beyond traditional healthcare facilities.
The expansion builds on Infusion for Health’s established ambulatory infusion center network and reflects a broader industry trend toward providing specialty therapies in the setting that best meets each patient’s clinical needs and personal preferences. By strengthening its home infusion capabilities, the company aims to improve access to care while maintaining the high standards of safety, clinical quality, and patient experience that have become central to its service model.
As part of this strategic initiative, Infusion for Health has also announced the addition of Michael Rigas, Pharm.D., FNHIA, a nationally recognized home infusion and specialty pharmacy expert whose decades of leadership experience are expected to support the company’s next phase of growth.
Responding to the Growing Demand for Site-of-Care Flexibility
Healthcare delivery has undergone significant changes in recent years, with increasing emphasis on providing care in settings that are both clinically appropriate and convenient for patients. Advances in infusion therapies, improvements in home healthcare infrastructure, and a greater focus on patient-centered care have contributed to rising demand for home-based treatment options.
Many specialty medications used to treat chronic and complex conditions require infusion or injection over extended periods. Traditionally, these therapies have often been administered in hospitals or outpatient infusion centers. However, advances in clinical protocols and monitoring capabilities have made it possible for many patients to safely receive treatment in their own homes under the supervision of trained healthcare professionals.
Infusion for Health’s expanded Home Infusion division is designed to support this evolving model of care by offering patients additional flexibility while ensuring that clinical oversight and treatment quality remain consistent across all care settings.
According to the company, the goal is to provide infusion therapy wherever it best serves the patient while maintaining coordinated, evidence-based care.
Building an Integrated Infusion Care Model
Infusion for Health has developed a comprehensive approach that combines its growing network of Ambulatory Infusion Centers (AICs) with an expanding home infusion program.
This integrated model allows physicians and patients to determine the most appropriate treatment setting based on several factors, including the patient’s medical condition, therapy requirements, insurance coverage, lifestyle, and personal preferences.
Some patients may benefit from receiving therapy in specialized ambulatory infusion centers that offer dedicated clinical staff and advanced infusion capabilities. Others may prefer home-based treatment that reduces travel time, minimizes disruption to daily routines, and allows therapy to be administered in a familiar environment.
By supporting multiple sites of care, the company aims to provide greater continuity throughout the patient’s treatment journey while improving convenience and overall satisfaction.
Leadership Highlights Vision for Patient-Centered Care
Dan McCarty, Chief Executive Officer of Infusion for Health, emphasized that the company’s long-term vision focuses on delivering therapy in the setting that best meets individual patient needs.
“Our vision is to deliver care wherever it best serves the patient,” McCarty said.
He explained that expanding home capabilities alongside the company’s ambulatory center network enables for Health to provide greater flexibility while continuing to uphold the clinical excellence and patient experience that define the organization.
This patient-centered philosophy reflects broader changes occurring across healthcare as providers increasingly seek to improve accessibility without compromising quality or safety.

Over the course of his career, Dr. Rigas has helped improve clinical practices related to these therapies while promoting initiatives focused on patient safety, treatment effectiveness, and operational excellence.
His experience also extends to broader aspects of specialty pharmacy, including quality improvement, clinical program development, regulatory compliance, and healthcare innovation.
Infusion for Health believes this expertise will strengthen its ability to expand home services while maintaining consistent standards of care.
Supporting Continued Growth
Jeffrey Shore, Senior Vice President of Operations at for Health, noted that the company is intentionally building a leadership team capable of supporting long-term expansion.
“As we continue expanding our home footprint, we are intentionally building a team with deep expertise and a shared commitment to clinical excellence,” Shore said.
He added that Dr. Rigas has played an influential role in shaping the home industry and that his experience will provide valuable guidance as the organization continues broadening access to specialty services for both patients and healthcare providers.
The appointment underscores the company’s commitment to combining geographic growth with experienced clinical leadership.
Expanding Access Across the Western United States
Infusion for Health has established itself as a significant provider of ambulatory infusion services through its expanding network of centers located throughout the western United States.
These facilities provide therapy for patients with chronic, autoimmune, neurological, gastrointestinal, rheumatologic, immunologic, and other complex medical conditions requiring biologic medications or specialty infusions.
The company’s growing Home division complements this network by extending treatment options beyond physical centers.
Patients whose therapies are appropriate for home administration may now benefit from greater scheduling flexibility while remaining connected to coordinated clinical support.
This combination of ambulatory centers and home-based services enables physicians to tailor treatment settings according to each patient’s evolving clinical needs.
Advancing the Future of Infusion Care
Dr. Rigas believes the future of specialty therapy lies in providing patients and healthcare providers with multiple care options while preserving the highest standards of quality and safety.
“The future of care is about providing patients and providers with options while maintaining the highest standards of safety, quality, and service,” he said.
He noted that for Health has built a strong reputation through its ambulatory programs and expressed enthusiasm about helping extend that same level of clinical excellence into the home setting.
His comments reflect broader industry efforts to create more flexible care delivery models that improve both patient experience and healthcare efficiency.
Commitment to Coordinated Specialty Care
The continued expansion of Infusion for Health’s Home division aligns with the organization’s broader mission of improving access to specialty therapies through coordinated, patient-focused care.
The company seeks to deliver an integrated experience that benefits not only patients but also physicians, caregivers, healthcare systems, and payers.
By coordinating services across multiple treatment settings, for Health aims to simplify care transitions, enhance communication among providers, and support consistent treatment outcomes throughout the course of therapy.
This integrated approach may also contribute to more efficient healthcare delivery by ensuring that patients receive treatment in the most appropriate and cost-effective setting whenever clinically feasible.
Infusion for Health’s continued investment in home services represents an important step in the evolution of specialty care delivery. As demand for flexible treatment options continues to grow, the company is expanding its clinical capabilities, operational infrastructure, and experienced leadership to better serve patients across a range of chronic and complex medical conditions.
The addition of home services alongside a well-established ambulatory center network creates a comprehensive site-of-care model that allows patients and providers to choose the treatment setting that best aligns with individual clinical needs and lifestyle considerations. With the appointment of industry veteran Michael Rigas and ongoing investments in clinical excellence, Infusion for Health is positioning itself to meet the changing needs of the healthcare landscape while remaining focused on safety, quality, and improved access to specialty infusion therapies.
