Let's Be Honest: The system is set up for hospitals to profit from COVID
American Thinker ^ | 01/20/2022 | Terry Paulding

Posted on 01/19/2022 8:04:26 AM PST by SeekAndFind

If you had a financial incentive to do something that wasn't exactly honest, would you abandon your principles and take the cash?  Apparently, that's what many medical providers and hospitals in America have been doing, especially since the beginning of the Biden administration.  The numbers are staggering — both in money hospitals took in and the very real possibility that their actions caused people to die.  If the accusations are true, what happened is truly evil and, I think, points directly to a cause: the removal of God and morality from society, replacing these brakes with what passes for modern life — disconnected, social media–driven, selfish, me-first living, with no real accountability.  If you see "everyone" acting a certain way, who, after all, are you to buck the system?  Besides, you're accountable to the Board, or the stockholders, first and foremost!

This is as old a story as humanity.  Losing the strong moral code that should underlie our lives opens the door to saying, "Well, that's a gray area, and I won't think too much about it, and anyway, everyone's doing it this way."  This was forcibly borne upon me because a good friend sent me an article that illuminates in a precise and fact-driven way what is going on and allows us to see exactly how evil aspects of our modern medical system have become.  I'll summarize the article here, but I urge you to read it yourself.

If you're unlucky enough to need a hospital procedure, step one is a free COVID test.  Of course, the government pays the hospital a fee for this "free" test.  If the test is positive, the hospital gets another fee.  No matter that the patient was in for appendicitis.

Some of them were barely able to keep the lights on with the restrictions on being able to have surgeries from the Covid restrictions.

“The system is set up for hospitals to profit from patients dying from Covid 19 and not from treating it.”

But if patients die the medical industry is done getting money from them or their insurer.

Seems they would want their patients sick but alive.

The question must be asked.

If it’s true.

Why are almost all doctors and nurses going along with it?

To keep their jobs?
Why are known treatments being suppressed and doctors going along with it?

IF they resist they lose their practice, are deplatformed, etc. One doc in Maine just got fired and sent for psych eval for prescribing Ivermectin. His crime was “Covid Misinformation.”

You may still be suffering under the illusion that we live in free country.

Hasn’t been free in my lifetime.

My job is not worth anyone’s life.

So I can’t relate to what they are doing

I don’t think their job is either

NEVER EVER trust a word that comes out of the mouth of a hospital administrator, they are some of the sleaziest people to ever suck air in a pair of lungs.

My wife worked in the financial side of hospitals for nearly twenty years and every time a local hospital releases their covid patients numbers she just laughs because she knows they are lying.

Hey, I was wondering if you had seen this, but didn’t have a chance to check?

You usually see everything before most people, especially bad things...
