Government’s Bounty on Your Life: Hospitals’ Incentive Payments for COVID-19 is About $100K per COVID Patient
Health Impact News ^ | Nov 18, 2021 | Brian Shilhavy

Posted on 11/18/2021 4:03:11 PM PST by hamburger hill

Elizabeth Lee Vliet, M.D. and Ali Shultz, J.D. have just written a report documenting how much hospitals make when a patient is tested positive for COVID-19.

While the authors correctly report that most of this funding comes from The CARES Act, which was passed in early 2020 during the Trump administration, and which was also used to fund Operation Warp Speed, for some reason they chose to blame Biden for this in their headline.

Say, gassie. Didn't you just go on a huge rant about how hospitals weren't incentivized by government duckets re: the covid?

Yes, I think you did.

Stick this in your pocket, Doctor Kildare:

___________________________________

The hospital payments include:

A “free” required PCR test in the Emergency Room or upon admission for every patient, with government-paid fee to hospital.

Added bonus payment for each positive COVID-19 diagnosis. Another bonus for a COVID-19 admission to the hospital.

A 20 percent “boost” bonus payment from Medicare on the entire hospital bill for use of remdesivir instead of medicines such as Ivermectin.

Another and larger bonus payment to the hospital if a COVID-19 patient is mechanically ventilated.

More money to the hospital if cause of death is listed as COVID-19, even if patient did not die directly of COVID-19.

A COVID-19 diagnosis also provides extra payments to coroners.

Why thank you so much for pinging me. As I like to usually go to the sources, I did just that and here is what is related as to “related” articles:

https://healthimpactnews.com/2021/identifying-the-luciferian-globalists-implementing-the-new-world-order-who-are-the-jews/

If you click the link, you will see a picture of Donald trump with Benjamin Netanyahu with the title linking Jews to Luciferian globalists and the new world order. Are you sure that you and the other people whom you pinged who express deep religious beliefs want to cite a blatantly antisemitic website?

Additionally, the author of the website was sanctioned for making false claims about coconut oil, and was ordered to cease and desist base on misleading statements. Additionally he seems to believe that he was stalked by terrorists in the Philippines.

What is abundantly clear to me is this is an antisemitic website questioning the integrity of Donald Trump and impugning Jews at large form someone who has zero scientific training, and appears to be — well — a complete kook.

Lastly, the body of the article states “That while it cannot be known what costs were reimbursed” so it appears that his so called sources have zero idea what they are talking about. However, there is no reimbursement for multiple of the things written — this is not how the DRG system work, and in general, this is a complete crock of horse crap.

I hope that answers your question...

Now the nurses are reporting they hear doctors and nurses there wishing death on the unvaxxed.

Of course you are quoting a single tik Tok video of a so called curse who also said that alcoholism causes as a primary problem kidney damage -- which is not even in the top 10 sequelae of alcohol related syndromes -- this was debunked several days ago, and it would be hard to actually believe that the nurse actually had any medical training. It helps to understand what you are quoting in context. But stick with it if you want...

Well, I guess there are some things even bad boys who love the mama’s cannot defend. I am proud of you.

Dr Bryan Ardis stated that per a report out of the Commission on Medicare and Medicaid the hospitals were "encouraged" to use Ivermectin, not the actual cost which they still get, but an extra $25,ooo for each patient....

any doctor that treated his patients with the "protocol" and after several deaths KNEW that the "protocol" was to blame, should be hauled out, arrested, and charged and then publically punished after conviction...

Hey gassy...care to weigh in on this?
You being a doctor and all, dispensing medical advicewithout giving your bona fide....whit haven’t you given that yet?

Maybe because you’re afraid of the lawsuits from your medical malpractice, or is it because you’re a fraud?

Either way, no bona fide...you’re a 50¢ army fraud

Please see post #22, I was asked my opinion by Bagster, and I researched the article and found that the author and blog is antisemitic. Apparently your reading skills are about as good as your grammar skills, unsure what “whit [sic] haven’t you given that yet?” means.

But if you wish to defend something that calls President Trump and the Jews part of the Luciferian NWO, have at it — it merely exposes who you and your ilk are.

Thank you for thinking of me, glad to live rent free in your head. Of course, it is a lonely place as there is little else in there.

Well, this ia pure horsecrap. Actual physicians were never given a “protocol” that we had to follow....so there is always that.

I so cannot wait to hear you defend antisemitic views. Come on, lets here it — or did you not actually research the article. And you certainly did not read my response. Sad that the only thing you can do is cut and paste Bagster — at least he is sort of entertaining. You are just — well — a putz.

Attaboy, gassie. I figured you for the distraction tactic, but I didn't expect you to go full on derp and play the anti-semite card. Well played. Desperate measures for desperate times, I guess.

Now back to serious business. What do you say about the FACTS of the article, eh?

I'd like a second opinion.

You’re the one who thought HCQ didn’t work for treating coronavirus.

You were wrong, but you wouldn’t stop arguing the point.

I see you’re doing the same thing here.

I answered the crux of the article — however, to be clear, you agree with the website that the Jews are part of the Devil’s NWO? A simple yes or no will suffice — no distraction — its ok, I dont believe the you would espouse this view, I think you just got caught with your pants down and didn’t look at the primary source — It is forgivable, but please dont double down on it,

HCQ doesnt work — sorry — that is pretty darn well vetted. But, please, tell me your experience in prescribing HCQ and following the clinical course. I would adore to here your experience in treating CoVID.

So to be sure, you as well are joining affirming this source which calls Jews part of the “Luciferian New World Order” — seems an odd position for someone who sights his or her faith in the screen name and tagline. Just to make sure, you are aware that the Jews are God’s elect? You did read that part of the Bible, correct?

You’re the one who thought HCQ didn’t work for treating coronavirus.

And now we know why.

There's money to be made, and HCQ/Ivermectin aren't earners.

Here’s some advice you could profit from: any person who works for or otherwise supports the deep state and other communistic, anti-American and new world order ideologies is motivated only by a low IQ thought process.

Sorry to bust your distraction bubble, gassie, but facts are facts. I don't care if the devil himself told the truth. Truth is truth. Your weak attempt to distract from that truth is, sorry to say, pitiful and makes you look small.

I almost thought you had an ounce of intellectual honesty ni your Fauci-like bones. My mistake.

I believe you’re working for the new world order. In all likelihood you don’t know it, but you probably don’t know a lot of things.
