Osmind has partnered with CareNet GPO to bring negotiated drug pricing to interventional psychiatry practices nationwide. No fees to participate. Grow through shared buying power, resources and 2,700+ indepdendent clinicians who have your back. Sign up here.

‍

Over 90% of hospitals use group purchasing organizations to reduce medication costs. Independent psychiatry practices have been completely left out of that model—until now.

‍

If your practice offers SPRAVATO® or is considering it, you're buying at whatever price your distributor sets. Large health systems negotiate volume discounts. Solo and small-group practices don't have that leverage. The result: higher drug costs that cut directly into the margins that make the treatment line sustainable.

‍

‍

Group purchasing power, built for independent psychiatry practices.

CareNet GPO aggregates the purchasing volume of member practices to negotiate better pricing with distributors. The same model that's saved hospitals billions, now available to independent psychiatry practices.

‍

CareNetGPO partners with the largest national SPRAVATO® distributor, Cencora Besse Medical, to deliver discounted pricing to member practices. The more practices that join, the stronger the negotiating position becomes and the better the pricing gets for everyone.

‍

Think of it as Costco for your practice: collective buying power, wholesale pricing, no membership fee, just shared savings.

‍

What's included at CareNet GPO, at no cost to your practice

‍

Negotiated SPRAVATO® Discounts: Group rates on SPRAVATO®, with coverage expanding as new specialty medications reach the market. No membership fees or dues to participate. CareNet GPO receives vendor paid fees generated through purchase volume at no cost to participating practices.

‍

Procurement & Distributor Support: CareNet GPO provides white-glove support for distributor setup, supply chain logistics, and billing and coding education to support clean claim submission. If you're new to SPRAVATO®®, they also offer REMS certification support, facility setup guidance, and operational playbooks for implementation.

‍

Inventory Management & Secure Storage: Inventory management software and storage units for controlled substances—designed to simplify compliance, ordering, and day-to-day operations. Safe handling, disposal, and storage resources are included for practices managing SPRAVATO®®in-office.

‍

Better Together with Osmind: CareNet GPO drug pricing pairs with the platform you already use for SPRAVATO® documentation, REMS compliance, billing, and prior authorization support. Osmind handles the clinical and billing workflow; CareNet GPO handles the drug discounts.

‍

Drug pricing is just one piece. What about getting credentialed and getting paid?

CareNet GPO solves the cost side of the equation. But for practices launching or expanding interventional treatments, there's another challenge that takes even longer to solve: getting credentialed with insurance payers and actually getting reimbursed.

‍

Solo credentialing typically takes 6–12 months. REMS compliance is manual and error-prone. And billing for buy-and-bill treatments like Spravato is nothing like standard outpatient billing — most practice management systems weren't built for it.

‍

That's why Osmind built the Osmind Care Network.

‍

Osmind Care Network adds your practice to existing payer contracts—compressing credentialing to as fast as 2 months. From there, Osmind handles REMS submissions, billing, prior authorizations, and claims follow-up. Payer rates are 5–10% better than what you could negotiate independently. You keep 100% ownership and clinical autonomy.

‍

For practices already joining CareNet GPO, it's the natural next step: discounted drug pricing paired with the credentialing, compliance, and billing infrastructure to make the whole treatment line sustainable.

‍

‍

How it works—from sign-up to purchasing in 6–8 weeks or less.

‍

Already purchasing SPRAVATO® through Cencora (Besse Medical)? You could have discounted pricing applied to your account within a few days of completing the intake form and confidentiality agreement.

‍

New to SPRAVATO® or setting up a new distributor account? Plan for approximately 6–8 weeks from sign-up to first purchase. Most of that timeline depends on how quickly you complete documentation required for controlled substance purchasing and distributor vetting.

‍

Here's the process either way:

Step 1: Fill out the sign up form (under two minutes).

‍

Step 2: We send a DocuSign with a confidentiality agreement. Pharmaceutical pricing is regulated and confidential, so the agreement is required before we can share specific rates.

‍

Step 3: After the confidentiality agreement is signed, you'll receive a Letter of Commitment. Once signed, you're officially a CareNet GPO member.

‍

Step 4: CareNet GPO walks you through distributor setup with Cencora (Besse Medical), including vetting for controlled substance purchasing.

‍

Step 5: You're live. Purchase SPRAVATO® at negotiated group rates.

‍

While you're getting set up, you'll gain immediate access to the CareNet GPO Forum within the Psychiatry Collective—connect with other interventional practices, stay ahead of the curve with live virtual events, and access templates and guides to grow your practice.

‍

Practice independently, with advantages of large health systems.

Drug savings, inventory support, expert guidance, and a community of peers who are already doing this successfully. The intake form takes under two minutes.
