Hospital Refuses to Administer ETC

Forgive me if part of this posting is a bit redundant. A good friend's wife burned their house down in a failed suicide attempt. Their insurance company is going to cover the loss (thank God). His wife is in the local behavorial hospital, and was due to have ECT treatments in a day or two. However, since they don't have health insurance, the hospital is refusing this treatment, and they don't have the cash to cover it.

My question: Is there anything they can do. She is in serious trouble mentally, and this might be just what she needs. (I've had four ETC sessions, with each helping me considerably.)

Thanks!
