Hysterectomy With No Health Insurace
Posted: 07-25-07 08:40am

I am 43 years old and have never had children however I do not plan to have any. I was just told by my gynocologist that I need a hysterectomy. I have fibroids and Endometriosis and suffer from moderate to severe pain daily. My doctor has offered to reduce her fee for the surgery but the hospital is telling me that their costs will run approximately $15,000. There is no way that I can pay that much money. Is anyone aware of any alternatives that I'm not aware of? I'm truly ready to be pain free and live a normal and enjoyable life again. Please help! Any informaton will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I wish I could help and give you a comforting answer. Unless you are on a state health plan like Medicaid, the hospital want's at least one half up front now.
