Dear Colleagues,

 

I would like to poll people on home IVIG use.  I am typically opposed to it

and have found more recently that insurance companies are requesting it.

During my training, this was never done.  Is there are paradigm shift in

facilitating home IVIG that I am not aware of?  Thank you for your comments,

Chris
