Boilerplate
PsyAccess (psyaccess.health) is a verified directory of licensed psychedelic and ketamine/esketamine medicine in Europe: who legally provides treatment, in which country, under which access route (public reimbursement, private care or clinical trial) and what it costs where prices are public. Every record is traced to official sources, most directly to a national registry, and re-verified on a fixed 90-day cycle. Records that cannot be verified are deleted, not published with a warning label. PsyAccess is operated by Pink Elephant, Unipessoal Lda (Lisbon) and is free for patients and providers alike.
A note on terms. We use “psychedelic medicine” as the field's umbrella term. Strictly, ketamine and esketamine are dissociative-class medicines rather than classic psychedelics (our explainer), and classic psychedelics are available in Europe only inside clinical trials, compassionate-use programmes and Switzerland's authorisation scheme. Trial participation is research under a study protocol, not a form of available clinical care. Every record in the directory states which regulatory framework it sits under, and these frameworks differ in both regulation and evidence.
Key facts
- 487 verified provider records across 26 European countries, in four segments: certified Spravato (esketamine) centres, ketamine & KAP clinics, clinical trial sites, and psychedelic-assisted therapy programmes.
- 483 records are registry-verified (L3): traced to an official state or professional register; the remaining 4 carry two independent public sources (L2). No lower tier exists, unverifiable records are deleted.
- 4.8% error rate (5 of 104 verifiable records) in the blind QA audit of 2026-10-01 — a seeded random 21.5% sample re-checked field-blind against primary sources; all five errors corrected the same day, four were staleness against a moving market. Protocol and findings: quality assurance. Next audit: January 2027.
- 6 named reviewers (physicians and a PhD neuroscientist) check the clinical content of our guides: profiles, review scope and dates at /editorial-policy/.
- Open data. The full public catalogue is published as an open dataset (CC BY 4.0, JSON + CSV) at /data/, free to cite with attribution.
- Four languages. The directory and guides run in English, German, Spanish and Polish, with French topic pages. Provider spoken languages are verified against each provider's own published wording: from Turkish, Arabic and Ukrainian to Polish and French sign language.
Citable datasets
- Published ketamine & esketamine prices — Every price a provider itself publishes, transcribed as stated in the original currency, from EUR 200 in Germany to GBP 595 in London. Open CSV.
- Recruiting trials in Europe with entry criteria — Adjudicated entry criteria (indication, age, failed-treatment requirement) and per-country sites for every recruiting study in our layer. Open CSV.
- Poland: NFZ B.147 esketamine treatment points — Every fully funded treatment point from the official NFZ API, by voivodeship, refreshed monthly. Open CSV.
- Who pays for esketamine in Europe — Payer criteria in 17 countries with primary sources per row. Open CSV.
- Switzerland: esketamine centres + PAT programme — BAG-designated centres and Art. 8 BetmG practitioners, verified against official lists.
- Czechia: medical psilocybin tracker — Weeks since the first EU legal framework took effect versus bookable treatment sites.
- How many people actually get treated — Eligible vs treated with sources: the Netherlands' 1,500-2,000 eligible against 250 contracted places, Poland's 250 against a planned 1,000, Scotland's 27x by the company's own model, Germany's 317,000-505,000 eligible with no treated count found.
- The full provider catalog — every verified record as JSON/CSV, CC BY 4.0.
What we can do for journalists and researchers
Custom cuts of the dataset by country, treatment type or access route: same-day for simple requests. Fact-checking of access questions against our primary-source layer (every country fact on the site links to the regulator document it comes from). Comment and background from the medical reviewers listed below, arranged through us. New datasets and reports can be shared under embargo before publication: write with “Embargo” in the subject and your outlet. And corrections: if you find a number on this site that contradicts another number on this site, that is a bug: tell us and it is fixed the same day.

What PsyAccess is not
We are an informational service, not a healthcare provider, and verification covers licensing and factual claims, never treatment quality or outcomes. We do not rank providers or name a “best” clinic. Listing is free and determined solely by source verification; inclusion is never for sale, and the planned business model is a flat-fee enhanced listing, never per-patient or per-lead fees, never paid placement. PsyAccess takes no pharmaceutical industry money. Coverage depth varies by country: it is strongest where public registries are strongest, and some countries have few listed providers because few licensed providers exist, we say so on the page rather than padding the list.
