Medicaid and insurance access

Public insurance access can be confusing for Spravato patients. Nao Medical reviews Medicaid and Medicare support, including New York Medicaid Managed Care plans such as Healthfirst, Fidelis Care, MetroPlus, and United Healthcare Community Plan, while still verifying each patient's exact benefits.

Information plans may ask for

Many plans ask for documentation before approving Spravato. The exact requirements vary, but prior authorization commonly involves diagnosis, previous antidepressant trials, current medications, medical necessity, and confirmation that treatment will happen in a certified healthcare setting.
