A question for those of you, who had GRS/SRS and are from the countries, where the state or private insurers don’t refund it even partially. [1] How did you fund it? Have you saved enough in case you earn rather good money? Created an internet fundraiser or at least a tip jar and “campaigned” for it? I’m single (and have been since, well, very long time) and although I earn well, I’m very anxious about finances, especially that I still have a mortgage. I’m worried about stable income too and to have enough savings to not suddenly be homeless in case of losing my job…
[1] I’m from Poland, it’s one of those countries.
Nope, Poland. I know in the US you can have it partially refunded by a private insurer (talked to an American friend about it).
yeah, it depends on the insurer and the plan you have with that insurer, and a few other things - but some people don’t have to pay anything out of pocket for surgery
EDIT: checkout some of the resources linked in the wiki: https://old.reddit.com/r/TransSurgeriesWiki/wiki/srs/europe#wiki_poland
maybe they could connect you to a community of people who know more about how to get the surgeries covered financially
I know those resources (some of them are not very helpful imo). I also know those communities but generally stay away from discord and facebook. (But thanks for the link)
