Have you or a loved one sought several treatments for depression, including antidepressant medication, therapy and more? If you feel that previous treatment methods haven’t delivered the lasting results you’re after, SPRAVATO™ (esketamine) may be an option to consider. However, before making the transition to a new treatment, many patients and their families have questions about whether their health care insurance plans will provide coverage.
The treatment providers and Patient Experience team at Principium Psychiatry are here to help you navigate the complexities of health care coverage.

Principium Psychiatry accepts most major insurance plans, and the SPRAVATO medication may be covered by many insurers. Coverage for the medication and associated treatment visits can vary depending on your individual plan, and our team can help verify your benefits before treatment.
