my friend suffers from treatment resistant depression. after 11 years he has lost hope. ketamine infusion therapy at commercial medical practices is cost-prohibitive aside from the fact he cannot travel.

is it true that the ER at Yale New Haven Hospital administers a ketamine infusion for patients presenting with severe depression and/or suicidal ideation?

must he be admitted as an inpatient or, if successful, can he return home when recovered?

we do have medicare.

thanks.
