Question: Does insurance typically cover ultra-expensive but FDA approved non-experimental treatments?

Given all the new custom treatments we are likely to see from new technologies like RNA based customized cancer treatments I was wondering if health insurance typically has a limit past which proven, non-experimental treatments are just too expensive to cover.

E.g. if I get cancer in 20 years, and a $20-30 million treatment has a 99% chance of curing me and is FDA cleared, would it typically be covered by health insurance?
