The Ketamine Taskforce is a group of patients and clinicians who have come together to fight to get insurance to cover Ketamine for pain and mental health.
@RobertKennedyJc,
Please help us get Ketamine on label for Depression and chronic pain. We need insurance coverage to open access to all who would benefit from this amazing life saving medicine!

@joerogan ,
Please help us get the message to President Trump that Ketamine needs to be FDA approved for mental health and chronic pain. We need insurance to cover it to save more lives!

@SecVetAffairs ,
Help us open up equal access to IV Ketamine for all veterans that need it for both chronic pain and mental health! Please connect with us so we can discuss how to save the lives of veterans and reduce suicide rates.
Luke Combs opens up about his fight with Pure OCD. I am struggling with this as a new diagnosis as well. The SI is tough Ketamine can really help with OCD but requires more loading doses, higher doses and more frequent infusions,

@Pharmather_Inc potential FDA Approval of #Ketamine on or about October 29th could unlock the advancement of its 6 FDA orphan designations for Ketamine.

@andygrammer We saw you perform in Japan at the New Sanno Military hotel. You were incredible. Thank you so much for coming out for us veterans and active duty personnel! I would love to connect with you about your own mental health journey.
I don't get offended often, but...I'm watching the Don Lemon interview with Elon Musk, and I'm at the part where he questions him on depression and his PRESCRIPTION Ketamine use. That pissed me off.
Depression and treatment is something that is a deeply private and personal matter. Just because he's talking to Elon Musk doesn't change that fact. I find that his line of questioning is not only highly invasive, but also judgemental and accusatory in a way that stigmatizes mental health and well-being.
Ketamine is a form of treatment that has been shown to be very effective in certain cases of depression, and deserves to be talked about, which is why Elon had shared his use of it in the first place.
But it doesn't mean that he has to share his personal circumstances with depression. And worse, the way this topic was approached it had implied that somehow his struggles with depression or his use of prescription treatment means that he can't do his job properly. The message this sends to so many people is...not a good one. Narratives like this are also what often prevents people from seeking treatment.

The greedy health insurance corporations that run Medicare (Dis)Advantage will always put profits above patients. That’s why we’ve got to #ReclaimMedicare.
