MDMA expanded access is almost here. What’s it all about?

Clearly, there is more to MDMA-assisted psychotherapy than just swallowing a pill. But, I have to wonder who is profiting when a drug with a street price of around $15 a pop may end up costing over 1,000x more after approval and regulation.

Estimates [are] $15,000 as the standard price estimate for treatment with MDMA-assisted psychotherapy once it is legalized. There will always be those looking to make the biggest profit possible. And, a small market of providers for a radically effective — but expensive — new therapy could be a market for overpriced services [and leave social justice almost completely out of the equation].
