Palate reconstruction surgery for Andi: covering what insurance won't

Andi was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes in August. The surgeon at Depok General Hospital recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $750, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $600 short. my son has been in and out of Depok General Hospital since August. The doctors say severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Andi 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 3 weeks. During that time Andi 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 $600 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $95 • Travel and lodging for the family: $65 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $320 • Physiotherapy sessions: $120 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
