PICC and PORT Placement
For patients starting boot camp at Reno Integrative Medical Center, either a PICC or PORT placement is required. To make this process flow as smoothly as possible, we offer the following options.
PICC or PORT Placement options
OPTION #1
Your personal physician writes a prescription to have a PICC or PORT done in your home town and you have it in place before your first day of treatment. This is a procedure that is generally covered by health insurance.
OPTION #2
We can provide you with an order to have a PICC or PORT done in your home town if you do not have a specific physician.
* Note: This can only be done for established patients that have seen Dr. Eslinger.
* Not all labs will accept an out of state order, so we advise checking with facility.
OPTION #3
(PICC ONLY)
Arrangements can be made to place your PICC line with a private service through our clinic. Call our office for more details;
775- 829-1009.
* A Deposit of $600 must be paid at the time the appointment is scheduled.
* As a general rule, appointments must be scheduled at least 7 business days in advance.
*Cost is $1,100 for a one hour appointment with $100 fee for each extra hour if needed. The $600 deposit will be applied toward the fee as long as the appointment is kept.

Highly recommended:
It is imperative that once your PICC line is inserted,
it be kept dry. This is a wonderful waterproof cover to wear while showering.PICC line waterproof covers can be purchased online before treatment. Click here
