thanx for that.
here’s the loop hole...
“..claims eligible for the 20 percent increase in the MS-DRG weighting factor will also be required to have a positive COVID-19 laboratory test documented in the patient’s medical record”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I think it still works though because they have to attach a name to a Covid-19 designation (responsibility). At the same time I believe they are closing the loop on fake statistics so it’s getting harder to falsely claim someone is positive. Just my 2.

So no more “wait in line for a test, turn around and go home without being tested, yet still be notified you tested positive”?
seems to me, the volume would preclude verification.
