Liver Transplant Financial Assistance
Organ transplantation isn't simple or inexpensive. It requires a major investment of time, equipment, knowledge, experience, supplies and hospital resources. The costs of transplantation will vary, depending on the extent of preliminary testing, surgical complexity and post-operative services. Medical insurance coverage also varies widely and will affect the patient's out-of-pocket costs. Transplant patients need to consider a broad range of expenses that may or may not be covered by insurance:
- Insurance deductibles & co-pays
- Pre-transplant evaluation and testing
- Organ recovery fees
- Surgery
- Follow-up care and testing
- Medical fees to surgeons, physicians, radiologists, and anesthesiologists
- Anti-rejection medications
- Rehabilitation
- Food, lodging, transportation and phone service
- Child Care
- Lost wages
