hi there
I'm Loreto Campos from Chile. I was in Australia on a working holiday visa when I had a serious accident in March 2024 riding my bike with a broken pelvis and acetabular.
The total hospital bill was $47,000, and my insurance covered around $35,000, leaving a gap due to some uncovered X-rays. I've already paid about $5,000, but still i need to pay 6,430 in total. Wich is 4,430 from Canberra hospital and 2000 from Alfred hospital. The hospital contacted me telling about I have just 12 month to pay all
Now that I'm back in Chile, I'm finding it extremely difficult to pay this amount, as the hospital wants me to settle the debt within 12 months. However, the cost of living and income levels are much lower here, making it challenging for me to meet the payment demands. If I don't pay, the debt will be sent to a debt collector and will give me problems for the new visa
$5 is enough to minimize this huge debt and I will be eternally grateful.
Estimados,
Me dirijo a ustedes como Loreto Campos desde Chile. Durante mi estancia en Australia con un visado de trabajo y vacaciones, sufrí un grave accidente en marzo de 2024. El costo total del hospital fue de $47,000, y mi seguro cubrió alrededor de $35,000, ya que algunos exámenes de rayos X no estaban incluidos. Ya he pagado aproximadamente $5,000, pero el hospital aún me está cobrando $6,430 en total.
Ahora que estoy de vuelta en Chile, me resulta muy difícil pagar esa cantidad de dinero, ya que el hospital exige que lo pague en 12 meses. Sin embargo, aquí en Chile, los ingresos son mucho más bajos, lo que hace que sea muy difícil para mí cumplir con el pago.
Agradezco su atención a este asunto."
