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

In November I was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly. My surgeon at Alcalá de Henares Orthopedic Institute recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and I have been placed on the schedule for March. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $7,000, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $4,200 short. Doctors at Alcalá de Henares Orthopedic Institute told me a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. I work as a security guard, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $7,000 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 12 weeks. I'll not be able to work a full shift 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 $4,200 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,700 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $210 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $2,000 • Physiotherapy sessions: $290 With deep gratitude, Ana
