Surgery fund for Stanislav: ACL reconstruction in Kazan

Stanislav needs ACL reconstruction at Kazan Regional Medical Center and the family is $2,000 short of the hospital's estimate.

In August I was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections. My surgeon at Kazan Regional Medical Center recommended ACL reconstruction, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $2,650, and after what our health plan will pay, I'm still $2,000 short. Doctors at Kazan Regional Medical Center told me a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without ACL reconstruction. I work as a security guard, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $2,650 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a security guard have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Recovery is expected to take about 3 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 $2,000 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,050 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $210 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $630 • Travel and lodging for the family: $110 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Updates from Stanislav

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($1,078 in total) we've started the first stage. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Update from Kazan: I met with the hospital and confirmed the amounts. We're at 21% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
