[Question - Insurance] Need hernia surgery, how to navigate costs?

Maybe this is better suited for r/personalfinance, however I was told to try here first.

I’m a 26 year old healthy male living in the US who just found out I have an umbilical hernia. It’s super tiny and asymptomatic for the most part. I’ve gotten it checked out and told that it’s something that can be put off temporarily, however it will require surgery.

My insurance has a $3000 deductible, and to my understanding, I would have to essentially pay the full $3000 (seeing as I’m sure the surgery would cost more than $3000). I can’t afford this at all, so I’m wondering if there is any other recourse than just be stuck with a massive bill that I can’t pay. Any help or resources would be much appreciated.
