Cataract surgery for Mizanur: covering what insurance won't
A scheduled cataract surgery in November is out of reach without help covering $850 of the cost.
🇮🇳 India1,443 views
In September I was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect. My surgeon at Gaya Community Hospital recommended cataract surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for November. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,050, and after what our health plan will pay, I'm still $850 short.
Doctors at Gaya Community Hospital told me an aortic valve defect will get worse without cataract surgery. I work as a warehouse packer, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,050 is far beyond what I've.
Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a warehouse packer have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 12 weeks. I'll not be able to stand for more than ten minutes during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one.
The money goes straight to the treatment bills, and I'll share the invoices as they're paid so you can see exactly what your gift did.
Where the $850 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $420
• Hospital stay (5 nights): $250
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $45
• Post-operative medication: $35
• Physiotherapy sessions: $75
• Travel and lodging for the family: $25
Thank you so much.

wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 17 years in nursing I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
