The only people I know who are unable to communicate in complete sentences are morons.

Why did Tenet sell five Florida hospitals in 2020?

Why didn’t Jackson Health Systems qualify for CARES act funding?

"350 hospitals in Florida conspired to gin up phony admission numbers?
Why would they do that?"

Money!

Except that’s not how it works when you have a limited amount of hospital space and then have close down surgeries to make room for expanded SARs-Cov-2 patient recovery.

This is why Tenet is selling five Florida hospitals, so they can focus on the *more profitable* surgery center business.

The folks telling you to “follow the money” clearly don’t know what they’re talking about, and it takes less than a minute to find this information.

I used to work for a company that owned a bunch of hospitals, so I know something of how it works. How illnesses are coded makes a big difference in how much they get paid. They get more money for the Chinese virus.

With Covid, or FROM Covid??? Are we still playing this game?

A year ago, nobody was going to the hospital except for emergencies. Like covid. Now, they are there for bunions.

So “With Covid” includes many who didn’t know they were sick. Car wreck, broken pelvis, asymptomatic covid carrier? Boom “Hospitalized with Covid!!!”

So done with this BS.

I. Don’t. Care.

Hospital Corps employ thousands of people in all sorts of capacities. Why so vague on what role you played there?

...so I know something of how it works.

I'd say you're clueless about "how it works" if you think closing hospital surgeries in favor of housing more Covid-19 patients is a profitable business strategy.
