The cost of depression treatment varies from high to low, and it has a lot to do with the geographical level, as well as with the professional level and academic status of the doctor. For example, in a general tertiary psychiatric hospital, the registration fee for a primary care physician is 15 RMB, for an associate chief physician is 20 RMB, and for a chief physician is 30 RMB. After the consultation, the patient will be asked to undergo a checkup on the relevant scale, and the cost usually ranges from 300-500 yuan. After the condition is confirmed, a physical examination and some laboratory tests are required before medication is administered, which costs from 500-800 RMB. Once the treatment plan is clear, choose medication, if the cheaper drugs cost only a few dollars, a dozen dollars, or no more than 100 dollars per month. If relatively new drugs or imported drugs are used, the cost will be higher, ranging from 100-1000 RMB. In addition to medication, some patients can undergo psychotherapy if they are able to do so. Psychotherapy varies according to the level of the therapist, with fees ranging from $100-$800 or even $1000 for 45-50 minutes. If a more famous psychiatrist is in a private hospital, the cost can be as high as $2,000-3,000 per visit. Therefore, the cost of depression treatment varies from person to person, and the difference between high and low is relatively large, so it is recommended to try to go to a regular tertiary specialist psychiatric hospital for treatment.
