Septoplasty for Rony: covering what insurance won't

Rony was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in March. The surgeon at Saint Matthew Hospital recommended septoplasty, and He is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $870, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $650 short. my son has been in and out of Saint Matthew Hospital since March. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $870 is more than we can find. While we wait, Rony 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 Rony 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 $650 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $85 • Travel and lodging for the family: $65 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $340 • Post-operative medication: $60 • Physiotherapy sessions: $100 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
