Prescribers must hold DEA registration and check the Indiana INSPECT Prescription Drug Monitoring Program before issuing controlled substance prescriptions. Indiana does not enforce a rigid CPOM doctrine, permitting flexible clinic ownership. Indiana's telehealth law (IC 25-1-9.5) explicitly permits controlled substance prescribing via audiovisual telehealth consistent with DEA requirements.
Insurance & Medicaid Coverage
Indiana Medicaid (IHCP) covers Spravato with prior authorization, substantially updated effective October 1, 2025 (IHCP Bulletin BT202611, January 2026). Initial authorization requires TRD or MDD with acute suicidal ideation on concomitant oral antidepressant, age 18+, psychiatrist prescription, and REMS enrollment. For TRD: up to 8 kits per 4-week induction. Reauthorization requires 84 days of confirmed use plus clinical benefit.
Telehealth Options
