Septoplasty for Geetha: covering what insurance won't

After a hip fracture that never healed properly, Geetha was cleared for septoplasty, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Geetha was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly in January. The surgeon at Nagpur General Hospital recommended septoplasty, and She is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,900, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $1,150 short. my wife has been in and out of Nagpur General Hospital since January. The doctors say a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,900 is more than we can find. While we wait, Geetha struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Geetha won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing. The money goes straight to the treatment bills, and I'll share the invoices as they're paid so you can see exactly what your gift did. Where the $1,150 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $390 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $560 • Post-operative medication: $25 • Physiotherapy sessions: $105 • Travel and lodging for the family: $70 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
