What to include

What should a Spravato referral include?

A Spravato referral works fastest with the information insurers ask for:

  • Diagnosis: major depressive disorder, and whether there's acute suicidal ideation.
  • Antidepressant history: each medication tried, the dose and how long. This is what qualifies the patient.
  • Relevant history: blood pressure, cardiovascular or cerebrovascular history, substance use, psychosis.
  • Insurance and contact details for the patient.

Missing pieces won't hold anything up. We gather the rest at the evaluation.
