How much does ketamine therapy cost in NYC?

A practical comparison of published prices across IV ketamine, Spravato, and at-home treatment models.

Short answer: In NYC, published pricing varies dramatically by treatment model. Current examples range from about $129/month for some at-home programs to $500-$550 per IV infusion, while comprehensive clinic packages can run several thousand dollars. Spravato may have a very different out-of-pocket cost when insurance approves it.

Why “price per session” can be misleading

A $500 infusion and a $500 therapy package may include very different things. Before comparing providers, look at the evaluation fee, number of sessions in the initial course, medication charges, medical monitoring, preparation/integration, maintenance costs, and whether any portion can be reimbursed by insurance.

What about Spravato?

Spravato is FDA-approved esketamine and must be administered in a certified healthcare setting with monitoring. Insurance can materially change the patient's cost. For example, Keta Medical Center publishes that most of its insurance-approved Spravato patients pay $0-$50 per visit, but that is provider-specific and not a guarantee for another patient or plan.

FDA information: Spravato / esketamine. Provider-specific cost example: Keta Medical Center.

The better question: what will the initial course cost?

Ketamine Match is designed around this problem. Instead of treating every provider's headline price as equivalent, we compare the treatment model, published initial-course cost, insurance pathway, location, and level of support.
