TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / June 2, 2022 / Novamind Inc. (CSE:NM)(OTCQB:NVMDF)(FSE:HN2) ("Novamind" or the "Company"), a leading mental health company specialized in psychedelic medicine, today announced new patient financing options to help patients access critical mental healthcare services at its six clinic locations in Utah. The Company now accepts Synchrony's CareCredit credit card for treatments including Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), ketamine therapy and Spravato therapy.
Affordability of mental healthcare services remains a primary barrier to accessing treatment in the U.S. In a 2021 survey from McKinsey & Company, almost one fourth of respondents reported deferring mental healthcare, with lack of affordable treatment ranking as the top reason why.1
"Novamind is committed to ensuring that as many patients as possible can access mental health treatment," said Seneca Anderson, SVP Operations. "Further to delivering the highest standard of care in a variety of accessible formats, whether it's virtual, in-person, one-on-one or in groups, we're pleased to implement additional flexible patient financing options like CareCredit at our clinics to reduce barriers to care."
CareCredit enables patients with a quick prequalifying process and applications via mobile device or over the phone, resulting in an instant credit decision. Once approved, patients can immediately use the CareCredit credit card to pay for deductibles, copays and coinsurance, as well as other costs not covered by insurance.
