Treatment Costs Associated with Surgical Treatments
When a child goes through a surgical procedure for cerebral palsy, they may be able to improve their mobility and reduce the discomfort that is caused by cerebral palsy. However, these treatments can prove very expensive, creating a substantial financial burden for that child’s family. Unfortunately, many families are unable to afford this treatment and become severely burdened by debt as a result.
If your child has developed cerebral palsy as result of a doctor or nurse’s negligence, you may be eligible to pursue financial compensation.

Considering Cost in Surgical Treatments
Surgical treatments often come with greater costs than expected. This is due to the additional costs associated with surgical treatments and post-treatment care. Overall, a surgery may include some of the following medical care expenses:
- Post-treatment recovery expenses
- Physical therapy to maximize surgical results
- Inclusion of drug pumps or other medicinal treatments
- Follow-up surgeries
These expenses can significantly add to a family’s financial burden. However, financial compensation may be available to cover these costs.
