In July I was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly. My surgeon at A Coruña Community Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $8,250, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $4,150 short. Doctors at A Coruña Community Hospital told me a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. I work as a security guard, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $8,250 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. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 4 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. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $4,150 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,300 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $2,000 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $195 • Post-operative medication: $210 • Physiotherapy sessions: $320 • Travel and lodging for the family: $125 Thank you for reading my story.
