I can't find any information to back up the previous posters claims that chamber therapy costs $100,000-$250,000. The average I can google is $100 for 90 minutes.
You may be taking that too literally. I'm sure the poster meant to include possible helicopter evacuation, other transport, cost of doctors involved, possible hospital stays. If the bends is cured, one may simply go for followups etc. but a true embolism may have one in the hospital for quite some time. Its not just the chamber that costs money and different facilities will have different prices. But either the bends or an embolism can leave one with permanent disabilities needing care well into the future.
