Common questions

How is admission to Klinik Gais organised?

As a rehabilitation clinic it works with physician referral; for esketamine under Swiss basic insurance the route runs through your treating psychiatrist, who assesses eligibility and initiates the referral.

When does basic insurance cover Spravato treatment?

Under the BAG Limitatio: adults 18-74 with treatment-resistant depression (at least two antidepressants with different mechanisms plus one augmentation attempt failed, confirmed severity), with the insurer's cost approval (Kostengutsprache) obtained before the first dose and coverage limited to a maximum of 10 months.
