Help me pay for palate reconstruction surgery at Nashik University Hospital
Joya needs palate reconstruction surgery at Nashik University Hospital and the family is $1,050 short of the hospital's estimate.
🇮🇳 Nashik, Maharashtra, India881 views
In August I was diagnosed with gallstones with repeated infections. My surgeon at Nashik University Hospital recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for November. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,750, and after what the government subsidy will pay, I'm still $1,050 short.
Doctors at Nashik University Hospital told me gallstones with repeated infections will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. I work as a call-centre agent, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,750 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.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 3 weeks. I'll not be able to drive 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 $1,050 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $65
• Hospital stay (2 nights): $250
• Post-operative medication: $60
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $570
• Physiotherapy sessions: $105
Thank you for reading my story.
