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

Reza was diagnosed with a herniated spinal disc in November. The surgeon at Malang Regional Medical Center recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and He is scheduled for March. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,750, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $1,050 short. my father has been in and out of Malang Regional Medical Center since November. The doctors say a herniated spinal disc will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Reza struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 5 weeks. During that time Reza won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing. 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: $55 • Post-operative medication: $55 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $580 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $360 Thanks for being kind about this. - Okta
