Gallbladder removal for Tarun: covering what insurance won't

In August I was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst. My surgeon at Saket Orthopedic Institute recommended gallbladder removal, and I have been placed on the schedule for November. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,250, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $950 short. Doctors at Saket Orthopedic Institute told me a large ovarian cyst will get worse without gallbladder removal. I work as a security guard, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,250 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a security guard have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Recovery is expected to take about 4 weeks. I'll not be able to walk without help 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 $950 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $550 • Physiotherapy sessions: $60 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $310 • Post-operative medication: $30 Every share and every dollar helps. - Tarun
