Hospitalizing Americans who aren't vaccinated against the coronavirus is leading to billions of dollars in unnecessary health care costs, according to a new analysis.
Over a recent three-month period, the cost of treating unvaccinated COVID-19 patients around the U.S. amounted to $5.7 billion, the report from the Kaiser Family Foundation and Peterson Center on Healthcare concluded. Drawing on hospital admissions and public health data, the groups based that estimate on the roughly 287,000 hospitalizations among unvaccinated people between June and August. They assumed the cost of their care at $20,000 per person, citing Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services data and other research....
...As of November 2020, nearly 90% of insured individuals would have had their out-of-pocket costs — including copays, coinsurance or payments toward a deductible — waived if they had been hospitalized for COVID-19, according to KFF.
Now, with vaccines widely available, more than 70% of the nation's largest insurers are no longer waiving COVID-19 treatment costs, according to Kaiser, which surveyed the two largest insurers in each state and Washington, D.C.. Another 10% of plans plan to phase out cost-sharing by the end of October....

I wish that was true. My wife has been taking HCQ for years and was on an Ivermectin Rx, but she was hospitalized with COVID pneumonia in April. She is recovered, but her lungs aren’t back to normal yet.
“Getting the unvaxxed rounded up and murdered like the Jews in 1941 Europe is the important thing.”
They can only kill us once, but it is looking like that’s their ultimate goal. We are at the Holocaust stage now where the Jews were eliminated from schools and the professions.
How much are illegals costing us a year? Hundreds of billions a year.
ok, I think 10% was last year. From the below link charts, there’s about 93K in hospital as of 9/12 with a rolling average of 80K/wk and about 25K in ICU as of 9/14, peaking Aug 30? so 25%? at least right now. Some hospitalizations are days some are a week some are plural weeks accounting for bed turnover. And then you have to figure out what percentage was vaccinated vs unvaccinated. I’d probably jump on the math during the day but I’m feeling lazy. :)
here’s the charts I’m looking at to make a guess:

Given that a lot of deductibles are $3K or higher, that’s the same as not having coverage for many households. This is an Obamacare thing.
thanks. that sounds like a better explanation than the article.
Great question
That’s by design. If you get a fake positive PCR test, and the PCR test has a 97% false positive rate, they hospitalize you in an ICU isolation ward, even if you have zero symptoms or are there because you were in a car accident.
They had to pad the hospitalization numbers somehow and this is their tactic.
If they wanted to, they could allow early, outpatient treatment like they normally do, but then it would be obvious this is just a flu and they are using it to destroy the country and hand it to China.
As vaccinated people are increasingly hospitalized for breakthrough Covid, are the insurers going to compensate them for lifelong injuries, or compensate the families for the vaccinated who die?
And the Satanic creeps “in charge” will continue lying about this Scamdemic.
Deny people prophylaxes and therapeutics and guess what happens.
Though most of these are likely patients in with NOT for CoupFlu.
Don’t forget about all the vaccinated and people that have CoVid. Everyone I know that got CoVid this summer was vaccinated.
I remember a similar “news” article about the billions it was going to cost in medical care from the 2020 Sturges motorcycle rally creating a “super spreader” event.
Or just how much illegals are costing taxpayers in general?
A whole lot of BS about this plandemic.
How much have fat people cost in avoidable hospital costs during the same time?
yup
