Keytruda infusion as inpatient
Has anyone had an issue of being admitted to the hospital and the hospital refusing to administered the Keytruda as an inpatient? Have you ever heard of Keytruda only be administered as an outpatient? I have a friend who has been in the hospital for over 3 weeks. He's not well enough to be released but needs the Keytruda infusion. The hospital is saying they do Keytruda infusions as an inpatient, only patient??? Is this true? WHy is this? How can we fight this?
If so, did you fight it and win?
