About NCIN

NorthCoast Infusion Network
NorthCoast Infusion Network (NCIN) is a national network of credentialed infusion providers. Our goal is to bring business opportunities to our network of home infusion pharmacies by working with drug manufacturers, payors, and employer groups.
We are committed to the philosophy that our compelling point of differentiation is strength in our numbers with the capability to service customer needs throughout the country. Payor and employer trends are to contract with one or two national providers for ease and cost efficiency. We believe our network provides a better alternative to meet their needs in all markets while creating new business opportunities for our pharmacy partners. The stronger our network, the more opportunities we will have.
