Ketamine is approved by the FDA as an anesthetic agent and has been used for well over 60 years safely and effectively in the very young and the very old, as well as in veterinary medicine.
​
Sadly, ketamine treatments are not approved by the FDA for the treatment of mental health or chronic pain conditions. Over the last 15+ years, ketamine has been used in an "off-label" manner to successfully treat many mental health and chronic pain disorders. However, because it is not approved by the FDA for this secondary or "off label" use, almost all insurance companies will not pay for any serves that include ketamine therapies.
​

HSA & FSA Healthcare Spending Accounts
We have researched the option of spending your HSA and FSA healthcare accounts to pay for Ketamine therapies. It appears from our research that those funds can be used to cover this medical treatment!
​
If you choose to use your HSA or FSA funds, they may request some information from you, like a detailed explanation of the therapy you received and a form filled out by WWC and your healthcare provider stating the necessity of this treatment. We will help you acquire these forms and provide you with a detailed explanation of your treatment, if that request is made of you. We are here to help you in any way possible!
