Additional services, including more ketamine sessions, integrative therapy, and ketamine treatments can be discussed with the doctor after your initial treatment.
Insurance: Most ketamine therapy providers do not contract with insurance companies. Insurance companies generally do not view ketamine therapy as “medically necessary”, or they attribute the type of therapy as “experimental”. SBKT can provide its patients with a superbill to present to their insurance upon request.
Cost: Currently Dr. Drozd administers ketamine via intramuscular injection for the majority of patients in the program. Dosage and frequency of sessions are determined on an individual basis, which are discussed in the patient’s initial medical consultation. For most patients we
recommend a series of six ketamine sessions paired with their respective integration sessions, over the course of 8 weeks. Treatment schedules can vary depending on the patient and practitioner availability. Some patients will require more than the recommended amount of sessions, and others will require less.
Our initial medical consultation to determine eligibility and details of treatment costs $295 and is a one-time appointment. Each subsequent appointment is priced per visit. We typically recommend a 50 minute
preparatory session with the assigned therapist before the patient comes in for their first ketamine treatment. The cost of this preparatory session, and each subsequent 50 minute Integration session is $175. Ketamine treatment sessions are two hours long, with time dedicated for experiencing the medicine, as well as integration in the later half of the session. The cost of each individual ketamine session is $695. For special circumstances we do offer prescriptive services for at-home ketamine treatments when symptom management with more frequency is needed. Although it is possible for participants to receive ketamine treatments without the other aspects of psychological support, we have seen greater degrees of patient success when patients go through the entire course of treatment and utilize the treatment/integration model over the course of consecutive weeks. Above all else, our goal is to understand what you need and help with your healing.
