How the numbers work
Usually cash pay. Some plans reimburse the monitoring or infusion codes (96365, 96374) but not the off-label drug.
Because ketamine therapy is off label for depression, the drug and the dosing session are excluded by most plans. Clinics set their own prices; the per-session figure usually includes monitoring but not the initial evaluation, which runs $150 to $400.
