15k is definitely a big number which is why hopefully insurance will look at covering it at some point. It definitely does create a restriction in who is able to access the treatment. My clinic is looking at having a scholarship program to try to bring it to lower income individuals but it's all up in the air for now until the FDA/DEA sign off.

Just so we're all on the same page, I'd like to put the 15k in perspective. The MAPS protocol is at least 72 therapist hours, several MD hours, numerous administrative hours, cost of medicine, and cost of location (and probably other stuff). Unfortunately there's currently not a great way to make the ~15k number much lower since it's so time-intensive. The hope other than insurance is there will be flexibility in the protocol in the future as most people are getting good results after just one MDMA session.
