Cost & Funding

Crowdfunding for cochlear implant surgery

Crowdfunding platforms (Milaap, Ketto, ImpactGuru and others) have helped many Indian families fund cochlear implant surgery — especially for children outside scheme age limits.

Effective crowdfunding campaigns include verified medical reports, a clear cost estimate, a hospital letter, family details and a compelling but truthful story. HearClear assists families in preparing crowdfunding documentation and connecting to ethical platforms. Crowdfunding works best when combined with partial scheme/CSR support rather than as the sole funding source.
