Common questions

How do I access esketamine (Spravato) treatment here?

Access runs through a psychiatrist. Your treating physician assesses whether esketamine is a suitable option and refers you; the clinic offers a detailed initial consultation, and treatment is prescribed and supervised by its specialist physicians.

Is the treatment covered by health insurance?

Spravato is reimbursed by Swiss mandatory health insurance for treatment-resistant depression within the official criteria, and the insurer's cost approval (Kostengutsprache) must be in place before treatment starts.

Who obtains the insurer's cost approval?

AMEOS Seeklinikum Brunnen states on its esketamine page that it obtains the cost approval (Kostengutsprache) from the health insurer before treatment begins.
