For REMS-certified treatment centers

Spravato Marketing Services for REMS-Certified Clinics

You did the hard part: the certification, the monitoring room, the staff. We bring in the patients who qualify, so your treatment chairs stop sitting empty.

No patient information needed. Your audit is free either way.

Why this needs its own playbook

A Spravato patient is not a normal lead

Most of what makes this treatment hard to sell has nothing to do with clicks. Good Spravato marketing services are built around the rules your clinic already lives by.

How to market Spravato

2 hours+at every session

A visit takes up a morning

The label requires monitoring for at least two hours, and then a check that the patient is ready to leave. Your page has to say so plainly, or people will find out on the phone and hang up.

1 ridehome, every time

Someone else has to drive

Patients can’t drive until the next day, after a restful sleep. Distance matters more here than it does for most care, so we plan around the area people will actually travel from.

2+ triesat antidepressants, typically

Most callers need a history first

The indication is treatment-resistant depression, and payers usually ask for records of failed medications. Ads and intake scripts have to find those people, not everyone who is curious.

REMSenrollment before dose one

There’s paperwork between the call and the chair

Prior authorization, REMS patient enrollment and a clear plan for the ride home all happen before the first dose. Every one of those steps is a place to lose someone you paid to reach.

CIIIrestricted drug terms

Ad platforms treat it differently

Google restricts prescription drug terms in keywords. Meta separates education from promotion. A campaign set up like any other local service tends to get disapproved, or to go quiet.

Why starts are what we count

One patient start, twelve chair visits in eight weeks

On the label schedule for treatment-resistant depression, a patient comes twice a week for four weeks, then weekly for four, then every week or two after that. So one start can book more chair time than a month of leads that never reach dose one.

That’s why we report on starts and chair hours, and why a marketing plan has to be sized to your chairs, not to a round monthly budget.

Run your numbers

30 hrsof chair time at 2.5 hours a visit

Dosing per the FDA label for treatment-resistant depression. Each prescriber sets the schedule. The 2.5-hour visit is our planning estimate: the two-hour minimum plus check-in and dosing.

Market pulse

The demand is here. So is the competition.

Spravato is one of the fastest-growing brands in psychiatry, and more clinics are getting certified to offer it. Local visibility gets harder the longer you wait.

How we work

The first 90 days

  1. See where you stand

    We review your search visibility, your site, your Find a Center profile and how calls are handled now.

  2. Fix what’s leaking

    Tracking, page copy, phone scripts and the follow-up after a benefits check come first. There’s no point in buying traffic for a broken path.

  3. Turn on the channels

    We launch the campaigns that fit your market and your open chair time, then begin local SEO and referral outreach.

  4. Tune to your schedule

    Each month we look at consults, starts and open blocks, and move budget toward what’s filling chairs.

Questions

About Spravato marketing services

Something else on your mind? Ask us directly.

What do Spravato marketing services include?

Usually local SEO, Google and Meta advertising, a website that answers patient questions, referral outreach, and help with what happens after the call. We start with whichever one is holding your schedule back, then add the rest as chairs fill. See all of our services.

Is a clinic allowed to advertise Spravato?

Yes, with limits. In the United States, Google lets advertisers use prescription drug terms in ads and on landing pages without certification, but keyword targeting those terms requires certification. Meta allows educational content without written authorization, while ads that promote a prescription drug need its authorization. We explain both in our guides to Google’s rules and Meta’s rules.

Are you connected to Johnson & Johnson?

No. We’re an independent marketing agency that works for treatment centers. We aren’t affiliated with, endorsed by or paid by Johnson & Johnson or Janssen. SPRAVATO® is their registered trademark, and we use the name only to describe the treatment our clients offer.

Do you work with clinics that aren’t certified yet?

Yes. We can plan your launch while your REMS enrollment is under way, so your pages, Google Business Profile and referral materials are ready. We’ll hold any advertising until your site is certified and ready to treat. Here’s how a launch works.

How do you measure results?

We count booked consults, first doses and chair hours filled. Clicks and impressions are in the report too, but they’re not how we judge the work. The chair calculator shows how a start turns into chair time.

Do you need access to patient information?

No. Almost all of this work can be done with totals, like the number of calls, consults and starts. If a piece of the work would involve patient information, we’ll sign a business associate agreement first.

How long does it take to see results?

Paid search and Meta can bring calls within weeks, once the ads are approved and tracking works. Local SEO usually takes a few months to move, and longer in crowded metros. Referral programs build slowly and then tend to stick. We’ll tell you in the audit what’s realistic for your market.

What does it cost?

It depends on your market, your number of locations and which services you need, so we quote after the audit. Our pricing page explains what moves the number, and the budget guide shows how to work out a sensible ad budget.
