Default Must one be admitted for ketamine at Yale New Haven's ER?

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.
