As I understand it, whatever is being paid by Fedgov is ADDITIVE to the payments made by insurance companies/individuals (deductibles/co-pays, etc.) pay. So, an extra five figures on top of what the hospitals are charging, across hundreds or thousands of patients, can add up.
Consistently adding a diagnosis of the ‘rona to folks who come in for other things could be lucrative.
I’m not saying that’s happening (although I suspect it is on many cases). I’m just pointing out that if and where it is happening, it could be a nice added revenue source.
Keeping the patient alive and sending them through Rehab plus follow up visits are more valuable to the Hospital’s bottom line than killing them for $36,000-$39,000 from the Federal Government.
Which was a program instituted by Trump, which may not even be an active program any longer.
Do Hospital staff really care how much the Hospital takes in or what their own paycheck is?
Are there Blue areas and Red ares of the Country?
Do Republicans and Conservatives generally live in the Red areas?
Do people usually live in a location close to their work?
Are Conservatives primarily against forced vaccines?
Are Nurses willing to lose their jobs over a forced Vaccine?
To summarize…………
In order to believe the Nut-Job conspiracy that Nurses, Doctors, Hospitals are murdering people for a poultry $39,000, one would have to believe that Conservatives willing to get fired over vaccines, or Conservatives that believe in Life and believe in the job they’re doing are willing to kill rather than lose their job.
But a vaccine they’ll get fired for?
One would have to believe that Conservatives are in on it.
That they are murdering people at the request of the Hospital Board of Directors for $39,000 from the Feds (IF and that’s a big IF that program is still active) rather than keep the patients alive and continue treatment that could reach up to HALF A MILLION DOLLARS!
Yet, I suspect that the people that subscribe to such a pile of B.S. you run, not walk to a Hospital if they suspect they’re having a Heart Attack or Stroke.
They’ll gladly go to the local Murder Scene for their Cancer treatments, knee replacements, and injured back.
They’ll smile, be polite, say thank you to the staff all the while believing the staff are killers running free.
What a sorry world view to live. All self induced.
Quite depressing.
