Convincing insurance to cover out of state care due to long waits in home state

I live in Washington state and have been struggling with worsening chronic symptoms. I'd rather not go into what, but they're severely painful, affecting my cognition, and becoming physically disfiguring. I'm very concerned about longterm consequences.

Due to healthcare shortages, it's been months on waiting lists, only to be told my issues are not treatable my that specialist, which restarts the cycle again. I try to advocate for myself, but nothing really helps. It's like being on healthcare shoots and ladders.

One of my doctors, low-key suggested that I should look for care out of state, specifically on the US eastern seaboard where there might be more doctors.

How do I get my insurance to cover care out of state? I know I'd have to cover airfare and hotels.

When I've asked my insurance company about out of state care, they try to suggest other local-to-me doctors, but these doctors all have wait lists that are just as long or aren't taking patients. I'm not sure what options I have left.

Any suggestions?
