KAP's legal status and insurance coverage depend on your location. Here's a breakdown to consider:
Insurance Coverage: Since KAP is off-label, insurance companies do not cover the cost. It's important to become familiar with KAP to understand potential costs and explore any coverage options with your insurance provider.

On-Label: Ketamine itself is a legal medication with various FDA-approved uses, primarily as an anesthetic.
Off-Label: KAP, which uses ketamine for treating mental health conditions, is considered off-label. This means the FDA hasn't specifically approved it for these uses. While off-label use is legal for qualified healthcare professionals, its availability is limited.
