Hi Sarah
Thanks for this question. I don't think you are missing anything here. The literature certainly suggests that the patient could benefit from HBO treatment. However, there is not a clear pathway for insurance reimbursement. In cases like this, I have solicited my administration to allow compassionate care use of HBO, and more times than not, they have consented.
Thanks
