Optum Infusion Pharmacy
is making a difference.

00:00:05.005 --> 00:00:07.090
It's grounded in clinical innovation

00:00:07.257 --> 00:00:09.635
and focused on delivering
the most consistent,

00:00:09.760 --> 00:00:12.137
convenient, and compassionate care.

Optum Infusion Pharmacy
and its team of nurses

00:00:15.516 --> 00:00:19.228
administers therapy medications
to patients across America.

00:00:19.895 --> 00:00:22.231
People would ask,
well, what is Crohn's disease?

00:00:22.314 --> 00:00:25.526
So I would have to say, oh,
it's like cold sores in my colon.

00:00:25.900 --> 00:00:28.153
[NARRATOR] Infusion therapy
is when a medication

00:00:28.278 --> 00:00:31.073
is administered intravenously
or through the skin.

00:00:31.532 --> 00:00:36.370
Conditions these medications help
include cancer, multiple sclerosis,

00:00:36.662 --> 00:00:39.206
gastrointestinal diseases, and more.

00:00:39.706 --> 00:00:42.376
Some patients
require infusions every day,

00:00:42.584 --> 00:00:44.503
some only every few months.

00:00:45.295 --> 00:00:48.090
Walk in the door
and you'll see intake coordinators,

00:00:48.173 --> 00:00:51.844
patient navigators, dieticians,
and insurance specialists

00:00:51.969 --> 00:00:54.805
doing everything they can
to make a difference.

00:00:55.764 --> 00:00:58.308
Pharmacists mix medications on-site

00:00:58.392 --> 00:01:00.435
in a safe, controlled environment,

00:01:00.644 --> 00:01:02.646
with each prescription made to order

00:01:02.771 --> 00:01:05.607
for individual patients
based on their needs

00:01:06.191 --> 00:01:09.820
You'll also see clinical nurses
doing what they do best.

00:01:10.320 --> 00:01:12.322
[RACHEL] These people
become my friends.

00:01:12.614 --> 00:01:13.532
We laugh.

00:01:13.907 --> 00:01:17.661
They cry with me
when I'm having a bad day.

00:01:17.911 --> 00:01:22.749
The nurses make our lives
so much better.

00:01:23.750 --> 00:01:25.669
[NARRATOR]
Optum Infusion Pharmacy nurses

00:01:25.752 --> 00:01:28.755
administer infusion pharmacy
medications in the home.

00:01:29.005 --> 00:01:30.090
[JAIME] I can just see it.

00:01:30.174 --> 00:01:33.302
I can tell she's comfortable
when I'm here.

00:01:33.510 --> 00:01:34.887
[MELISSA] And I'm afforded
that good life

00:01:34.970 --> 00:01:36.263
because of the care she gives me.

00:01:37.264 --> 00:01:38.807
[NARRATOR] Every month,
they account for

00:01:38.891 --> 00:01:41.310
more than 22,000 home visits,

00:01:41.518 --> 00:01:43.604
partnering with pharmacists
and physicians

00:01:43.687 --> 00:01:44.980
across the care team.

00:01:45.355 --> 00:01:49.234
Whether the visit is for biologics
or immunoglobulin therapy,

00:01:49.484 --> 00:01:51.486
Optum Infusion Pharmacy home visits

00:01:51.570 --> 00:01:55.699
are at least 450% less costly
than a hospital visit.

00:01:56.450 --> 00:01:59.369
Optum Infusion Pharmacy
also cares for patients

00:01:59.453 --> 00:02:00.996
who need parenteral nutrition,

00:02:01.163 --> 00:02:03.790
which is the process of
being fed by infusion.

00:02:04.166 --> 00:02:06.877
[KRISTI] They don't treat
every single patient the same.

00:02:07.293 --> 00:02:09.671
They ask you what you need.

00:02:09.755 --> 00:02:11.215
They check in on you.

00:02:11.423 --> 00:02:14.968
There's always people available
if you have any questions.

00:02:15.552 --> 00:02:17.304
I just know I can depend on them

00:02:17.387 --> 00:02:19.598
to give me the care that I need

00:02:19.806 --> 00:02:21.016
that will help me thrive.

00:02:21.975 --> 00:02:29.233

00:02:30.108 --> 00:02:31.568

the bases covered.

00:02:32.069 --> 00:02:33.237
They're complete.

00:02:33.904 --> 00:02:35.906
Optum Infusion is complete care.

00:02:36.406 --> 00:02:38.367

00:02:38.575 --> 00:02:40.702
A deeper connection to care.
