259. MS Infusion Centers: Better Experience, Lower Costs - Local Infusion Co-Founder Explains


Listen Later

In this episode, I’m thrilled to sit down with Ashley Knapp, infusion nurse and co-founder of Local Infusion, to discuss how ambulatory infusion centers are revolutionizing MS treatment. 

We explore why infusions for multiple sclerosis (MS) are often easier, more affordable, and more comfortable when done at outpatient infusion centers compared to hospitals. 

Ashley shares expert insights on gaining faster access to MS infusion therapies like Tysabri, Ocrevus, and Briumvi, plus how Local Infusion is setting up possibilities for overcoming common barriers like transportation and insurance authorizations. 

If you’re seeking practical strategies to improve your MS care, reduce costs, and enjoy a better patient experience, this episode is packed with resources to empower your MS journey, boost your quality of life, and help you stay consistent with your treatment!
