Ketamine is approved by the FDA as an anesthetic agent and has been used for well over 60 years safely and effectively.
Sadly, IV and IM ketamine treatment therapy is not approved by the FDA for the treatment of mental health or chronic pain conditions. Over the last 20+ 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 ketamine treatment therapy.
At Wyoming Wellness Center, we are working with as many insurance companies as possible. What we are able to do is bill insurance for the parts or segments of a ketamine therapy appointment that insurance companies will pay for.
Those segments include: the office visit, possibly the IV nutritional infusion that goes along with our ketamine infusion therapy, and our observation time during the entire ketamine treatment appointment.
The part that we cannot bill insurance for is the Ketamine Portion of ketamine treatment appointment.
So, what does this mean to you, the patient? This means a reduced rate for your ketamine therapy!
