Modifies provisions relating to the ordering and administration of ketamine for mental health purposes
HB 3055 modifies Missouri law to regulate ketamine administration for mental health treatment. It prohibits physicians from delegating ketamine ordering to others and requires physicians to be physically present when certified nurse anesthetists administer ketamine. The bill also mandates that intravenous ketamine treatment must include a documented diagnosis and treatment plan from a licensed physician. These changes directly affect physicians, certified nurse anesthetists, and mental health facilities providing ketamine therapy.
