Demand Is Highest Where Clinics Are Few
Iowa's Medicare patients received $86.2M in clinic-administered infusion drugs in 2024, across just 8 registered infusion clinics. That is $10.8M per clinic. Colorado spent $101M but has 87 registered clinics, or $1.2M each.
The gap is a rough signal, not a census: many infusions happen in hospital outpatient departments and oncology practices that never register as an infusion clinic, and Medicare is only part of the market. But the states at the top are where a new independent clinic has the most room, and where patients are most likely to drive far for care.

Fastest-Growing States
Medicare clinic infusion spending grew fastest from 2022 to 2024 in Wisconsin (+113%), Kansas (+38%), California (+33%), Pennsylvania (+32%), Minnesota (+27%). Growth on a small base can come from a single new drug or practice, so read these alongside the dollar totals.
