Valve repair surgery for Esi: covering what insurance won't

Esi was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in June. The surgeon at Accra Orthopedic Institute recommended valve repair surgery, and She is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,350, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $1,000 short. my daughter has been in and out of Accra Orthopedic Institute since June. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without valve repair surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,350 is more than we can find. While we wait, Esi 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 Esi 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 $1,000 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $460 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $360 • Physiotherapy sessions: $115 • Post-operative medication: $65 Glad we found this place.
