A. The only investment is your initial product order.

A: We suggest converting it into something useful, such as a patient room or extra storage.

A: This may be the single most important aspect of our program. We provide targeted therapy at YOUR direction for YOUR patients. We store bulk concentrates and prepare them according to your prescription for each patient. Therapy is then delivered to your office as weekly injections or directly to the patient’s home as sublingual drops. We share a vested interest in the wellbeing of every patient and since our therapies are potentially curative, clinical outcomes are of paramount concern.

A: The Aitna Allergy Solutions lab prepares treatment per your instructions following either AAAAI or AAOA protocols, as specified by your practice. Dosing instructions are provided with both therapies and recommended adjustments in the event of adverse reactions are indicated.

A: If you store compounds on-site, your practice is responsible for the quality control and documentation of those products and is liable for any preparation errors in treatments. By participating in our allergy program, Aitna Allergy Solutions assumes all responsibility and liability for these products.

A: Each kit contains essentially everything that is required to test your patients, including antigens, testing applicators, boards, skin-markers, measuring devices, and promotional materials.

A: Patients as young as 3 may be tested. Any earlier and they likely have not been exposed to enough allergens to develop allergies. There is no age “cap” on testing. However, you should discuss with your patients the risks vs. the benefits of treatment.

A: I have a relationship with a distributor (i.e. McKesson, Henry Schein, Medline) and order my allergy and other supplies through them. May I purchase Aitna products through them? Yes! Aitna Allergy Solutions works closely with all major distributors. You may continue to purchase all supplies through your current distributor! Because therapy is patient-specific, injection and sublingual treatment is only available directly from Aitna.

A: Most physicians struggle to determine the actual cost per patient to test and/or treat. Presently, the cost is determined by the sum of the various expenses involved with a self-managed program (listed below) divided by the number of patients tested or treated during the same period.
Personnel costs (regular and overtime inclusive of benefits)
Allergy concentrate costs (including waste due to expiration)
Space dedicated to allergy testing and treatment (calculated as square footage as a percentage of your total office space, multiplied by the annualized cost of your lease)
Sterile vials for testing and treatment
Antigens, syringes, needles, vials, and testing boards costs
Commercial refrigeration

A: Yes. We want to be a true partner. If you are just starting allergy testing and treatment or need a refresher course for your existing practice, Aitna Allergy Solutions will train your staff on all aspects of the program whenever you need it.

A: Aitna Allergy Solutions was founded by a physician and is actively managed by an allergy specialist. We are one of the only companies on the market providing patient- and provider-specific solutions for physician allergy practices.

A: By participating in our physician allergy program, you have access to a secure patient management portal at no additional cost that you can use to manage patient therapy and order products. Orders can also be placed via fax: +1 (844) 696-3450 or scanned and emailed to cs@aitna.us.
