Cost coverage and affordability greatly impact patient access to psychedelic medicines and therapies. Legal access to psychedelics in Canada is only available through Clinical Trials and the Special Access Program (SAP). Ketamine is a legal psychedelic medicine and treatment is available, however, as with other psychedelic therapies, costs are high and are often not covered, making it out of reach for many patients in need. What is the state of cost coverage for psychedelic-assisted care in Canada? What is the route towards provincial cost coverage? What arguments could be made to third party insurers to include cost coverage in their policies? Which products and services should be covered? What is the impact on patients having to pay out of pocket? What are the implications of not being able to afford access to treatment? We try to answer these questions in this webinar.
