After a torn ligament that needs reconstruction, Asif was cleared for laparoscopic cyst removal, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Asif was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction in June. The surgeon at Varanasi Regional Medical Center recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and He is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,350, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $800 short.
my father has been in and out of Varanasi Regional Medical Center since June. The doctors say a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,350 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Asif struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 5 weeks. During that time Asif won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing.
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 $800 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $75
• Post-operative medication: $60
• Travel and lodging for the family: $75
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $530
• Physiotherapy sessions: $60
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Asif!
Sure. The biggest one is pre-operative tests and imaging, $75. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Fair thing to want to know.
