Help me pay for hip replacement surgery at Moscow General Hospital

After a deviated septum causing chronic infections, Bohdan was cleared for hip replacement surgery, but the bill is more than we can manage.

In September I was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections. My surgeon at Moscow General Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for November. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $800, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $600 short. Doctors at Moscow General Hospital told me a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without hip replacement surgery. I work as a call-centre agent, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $800 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a call-centre agent have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. The recovery period is expected to take about 3 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 $600 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $120 • Physiotherapy sessions: $210 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $170 • Post-operative medication: $100 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Bohdan
