Hospital treatment can bring with it many unexpected expenses like medications, wigs, mastectomy bras, child care, travel and more.
These expenses may create a significant burden for some people, potentially preventing individuals from receiving the recommended treatments. Delaying care due to financial strain can lead to worsening health as conditions progress, and in some cases, may even result in loss of life.
