Several resources can provide financial assistance for polio-related surgeries. National organizations like Post-Polio Health International (PHI) and the March of Dimes may offer guidance or have funds for specific needs. It is also highly recommended to consult the hospital's financial counseling office, as they can help set up payment plans or determine eligibility for charity care. Furthermore, some patients have found success by applying to disease-specific foundations (like the Muscular Dystrophy Association) or using crowdfunding platforms to raise money from their community. Persistence and applying to multiple sources is often key to securing the necessary funds.
