Oregon approves first psilocybin service centre - single high doses session to cost $3,500

Psychedelic Alpha reports: "Late last week, Oregon Health Authority announced that it has issued the first psilocybin service centre licence, just over two-and-a-half years since Oregonians passed Measure 109 which mandated the creation of Oregon Psilocybin Services. For campaigners, policymakers and hopeful psilocybin business operators, it’s taken a great deal of effort to get to this point. The first service centre licence has been awarded to EPIC Healing Eugene. Here, we piece together the path to licensure by speaking to the owner, Cathy Rosewell Jonas ... In order to break even after six months of operating, Jonas said that she would need to charge “probably around $3,500 a session”. This is, indeed, the pricing the centre ended up landing on for 1:1 high dose psilocybin sessions, though group sessions and lower doses do bring the price down slightly (but, not within the reach of the average Oregonian)."
