New York Cancer & Blood Specialists (NYCBS), one of several freestanding infusion centers in the EmblemHealth network, has launched a concierge program to offer EmblemHealth patients a homey, convenient environment for their infusion treatments. Undergoing regular infusion treatments can be distressing for patients. NYCBS’s clean, quiet, comfortable, and spacious suites can help alleviate patient anxiety. Referring providers will also have the benefit of working with NYCBS’s dedicated staff who will keep them informed of their patients’ treatment.
NYCBS can offer:

Physician offices will have access to the NYCBS coordinator who will obtain any required preauthorizations from EmblemHealth, decreasing the administrative burden on your staff. If you have questions, contact:
Coordinator: Michelle Sta. Cruz Phone Number: 631-574-8303 Email Address: EmblemTreatments@nycancer.com |
Extended hours, including weekends, at some of their locations. |

If your practice or your patients are not located near an NYCBS location, know EmblemHealth has contracts with Option Care Health and Coram, too. In Connecticut, members can go to Fresenius. Furthermore, your own provider office/infusion suite, or even the member’s own home, can serve as a good place for infusion care.
