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

Chitra was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor in August. The surgeon at Udaipur Community Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $810, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $650 short. my daughter has been in and out of Udaipur Community Hospital since August. The doctors say a benign brain tumor will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $810 is more than we can find. While we wait, Chitra struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Chitra won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $650 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $50 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $230 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $370 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
