In-home COVID-19 Treatment Program

CDR Health, the state vendor who provides the in-home COVID-19 vaccination program, is expanding its services to include in-home administration of therapeutic treatments and other FDA-approved therapies for COVID-19.

Massachusetts is making it more convenient for eligible residents to receive approved treatments for COVID-19 by making these treatments available at home.

Available treatments

Currently available therapy:

• VEKLURY® (remdesivir), an infusion medication administered over the course of three days for individuals who have mild-to-moderate COVID-19 and are at high risk for severe COVID-19. All patients with COVID-19 who may be at higher risk should be evaluated for treatment.

Eligibility

These in-home therapies are available for any individual who meets clinical criteria and has difficulty accessing them in the community.

How to schedule an in-home treatment

• By phone: Patients and their health care providers may call the CDR Health In-home COVID-19 Treatment Call Center at [phone] toll-free to learn more about the program and make an appointment for an in-home therapy. Representatives from CDR Health, which is operating the call center, scheduling appointments, and delivering in-home treatments are available at this number Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
• Online: You may also schedule an appointment directly on the CDR Health Patient Portal page at patientportalma.com.

CDR Health medical staff licensed in Massachusetts can write prescriptions for these therapies. The program can also work directly with a patient’s health care provider to arrange for in-home therapy.

Note: All therapies are provided by a registered nurse accompanied by a support staff person. All CDR Health staff are licensed in Massachusetts and are fully vaccinated.
