Pay for ketamine in-patient therapy

Help please!
How does one pay for ketamine in-patient therapy??? I just got the cost estimate for my 5 day in-patient treatment. It is $90,000. How do you all get this paid for?? Would regular insurance cover it? In the future (few years after being on disability) I will have Medicare. Will Medicare cover this 5 day in-patient ketamine treatment??
And I lose my job basically effective Dec 28 to this CRPS beast.

thank you! SS

Some insurance companies do pay for ketamine. If you search ketamine there is a thread on what needs to be submitted to your insurance company. But first you need to find a doctor who will take insurance and knows how to bill for it.

Good Luck!
