When Medicare decides to cover something, the insurance companies usually follow.
The more they play with rTMS, the more it seems to demonstrate efficacy for TRD. When it first came out 15 or so years ago, Mark George, MD, a developer of the procedure, did not think rTMS had much of a place for TRD. At one point, he told a friend of mine that she was not a canditate for treatment because she was so refractory to drug treatment. Who knows? Maybe I won't need it.
