Surgery fund for Hasan: cataract surgery in Siliguri
A scheduled cataract surgery in October is out of reach without help covering $1,000 of the cost.
🇮🇳 Siliguri, West Bengal, India1,612 views
In August I was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery. My surgeon at Siliguri General Hospital recommended cataract surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,450, and after what my employer's plan will pay, I'm still $1,000 short.
Doctors at Siliguri General Hospital told me endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without cataract surgery. I work as a call-centre agent, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,450 is far beyond what I've.
Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a call-centre agent have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk.
The recovery period is expected to take about 12 weeks. I'll not be able to stand for more than ten minutes 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 $1,000 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $290
• Hospital stay (3 nights): $460
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $75
• Post-operative medication: $40
• Physiotherapy sessions: $90
• Travel and lodging for the family: $45
I hope life is good to you.
