What does that mean - "full"?? It isn't making me happy that I will have to travel 30-45 minutes for this when there is one within 2 miles of my house.

Who says it's full? TOUCH or the center? If TOUCH/MSActiveSource says it's full, then call the Center...it's not MSActiveSource's call to tell YOU they are full. That's like them telling you the hospital is full.

I have no idea what you have been told by whom, but their job is to give you a list and to assist you with the paperwork to get registered for the program if you are having problems.

What does "full" mean? They have every chair filled with a patient every hour of the day that they are open? It would be worth a visit to this Infusion Center to talk to the people there and explain your situation. That is what I would do...

I've been involved with this program since its inception, actually prior to its inception. Let me know if you need anything....
