Laparoscopic cyst removal for Adriana: covering what insurance won't

In August I was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery. My surgeon at Iași Regional Medical Center recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and I have been placed on the schedule for November. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $2,300, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $1,600 short. Doctors at Iași Regional Medical Center told me endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. I work as a farm laborer, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $2,300 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a farm laborer have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 6 weeks. I'll not be able to lift anything heavy 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 $1,600 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $55 • Physiotherapy sessions: $160 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $780 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $145 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $460 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Adriana
