Laparoscopic endometriosis surgery for Adriana: covering what insurance won't
Adriana needs laparoscopic endometriosis surgery at Iztapalapa University Hospital and the family is $1,350 short of the hospital's estimate.

In July I was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect. My surgeon at Iztapalapa University Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for September. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,950, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $1,350 short.
Doctors at Iztapalapa University Hospital told me an aortic valve defect will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. I work as a care assistant, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,950 is far beyond what I've.
Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a care assistant have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk.
The recovery period is expected to take about 10 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.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $1,350 goes:
• Physiotherapy sessions: $200
• Hospital stay (5 nights): $900
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $90
• Post-operative medication: $70
• Travel and lodging for the family: $90
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
