What coverage support looks like

Insurance coverage for Spravato depends on diagnosis, prior treatment history, benefits, and plan rules. That is why the program includes benefits verification before the first monitored session.

Benefits verification before treatment starts.
Prior authorization coordination for plans that require documentation of diagnosis and prior antidepressant trials.
Scheduling and first-visit guidance once approval is in place.
Coordination with an outside psychiatrist when appropriate.

Medicaid and insurance access

Many Spravato providers position the treatment as difficult to access with public insurance. Nao Medical differentiates by leaning into 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.
