Laparoscopic endometriosis surgery for Rohan: covering what insurance won't

Rohan was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in July. The surgeon at Salem Community Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,800, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $905 short. my husband has been in and out of Salem Community Hospital since July. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,800 is more than we can find. While we wait, Rohan struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Rohan won't be able to lift anything heavy, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $905 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $510 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $390 • Post-operative medication: $5 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Jigna
