Information isnt Advocacy
You have gone full idiot here. If I perform a service and I get money for that service that is reimbursement not benefiting.Being reimbursed for services rendered is not benefiting. Hospitals are not benefiting from Covid deaths. Stop lying.They called the claim not true because the claim was not true. Hospitals are not financially benefiting from COVID.And you still have ZERO proof that deaths are being reported just to get more money. Even the douche bag that originally made the claim walked it back. You Trumpsters have no shame.There is no motivation. Flat rate reimbursement for treatment is hardly motivation. Just like the accusations of "cheating" in the election, you all make these ridiculous claims with ZERO evidence to support them.Yes, treating the patient costs money and Medicare is reimbursing for those costs.No they aren't. That LIE was debunked ages ago.You are terribly uninformed. Hospitals are receiving government funds for every Covid death. If you are unaware of this, you must admit you are uninformed. Get informed before posting.No. Wrong. If you have comorbidities, and cancer is a very big comorbidity, your death is almost certainly a combination of causes. Not just Covid. The fact that the establishment is claiming all these deaths are solely from Covid, should make you suspicious.The people that have COVID listed on their death certificates died of COVID...like the congressman from Texas. Yes, he had cancer but COVID, not cancer, killed him. If you have cancer and get decapitated in an auto accident, they donāt say you died from cancer. Fucking sick ass COVID truthers...Positive test rates have nothing to do with death rates. People are dying of COVID whether they test positive or not. Nobody is inflating death totals. You COVID truthers are twisted.Yeah, I think I would probably still be questioning your intelligence if we met in person. For sure on the internet youāre making shit up.I donāt know or care. I do know youāre lying about your intelligence level.The likelihood of someone lying about their intelligence level on an anonymous board ...100%.Please, the only thing you spent a year slapping around is your dick, COVID truther.You fucking COVID truthers are nuts and I donāt understand your motivation.No shit. If it was almost 80,000 just for January and we are losing 3,000-4,000 a day...can you do the math aptly named one?You get that we're well into February Seabitch, and the Synthia is a liar.No, itās true shit100,000 Americans have died of Covid since the beginning of 2021, jackass.What a terrifying pandemic.
No, they didn't. That's bullshit.
U.S. reports record number of Covid deaths in January as new strains threaten progress
President Joe Biden is working to ramp up the rollout of the Covid-19 vaccines, blaming the initially slow pace on the Trump administration.www.cnbc.comJanuary's death toll has already surpassed the previous record number of fatalities set in December, when over 77,400 people in the U.S. died of Covid-19, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University. The pandemic has taken more than 79,200 lives so far this month, according to the data.
those numbers are not real
If you don't have pneumonia you cannot die of covid
and just because you tested positive for covid with pneumonia doesn't mean the covid caused the pneumonia. How likely that is varies on the cycles used on the PCR test.
For most of history a doctor would have said cold/pneumonia or viral pneumonia because it's more hassle than it's worth finding out exactly what virus you've got.
Covid truther? lol. Maybe you should remember your education. I can read a data set as well as standardized tests can measure.
PCR tests are not what you think they are, you should know this by now. Massive false positive rate. Well over 50% at 35 cycles which was very common in the US. Although how common is unclear because labs don't report this data
It's been a year pleb
Maybe stop with teh appeals to authority use your head. I've spend the year slapping around phds, you pleb have no idea what you're talking about. Even my ivy league kin. You are clearly not ivy league material.
Uh huh says the pleb
i'm half south asian. I don't think i need to say anymore about my STEM credentials
statistically the likelyhood of you being on my level academically is almost non existant.
otehr than math people don't come smarter than me
remember your place whitey. Clearly not on top fo the heap
Itās beyond obvious that you are lying.
You think im lying about my ethnicity?
not gonna meet many indians in the states who feel the need to do that
ok sure pleb
get out more you fucking shut in. maybe the cognitive dissonance will set in
i assure you if we spoke in person you would not be questioning me you little autist.
You have no idea where to begin trying to defend your bullshit. Next time some one treats like you like shit don't wonder why. You're a vapid little faggot
(Let me clue you in on a little secret, a big tell is the quantity of ad hominems.)
I don't know. He discussed details of the tests that you did not address.
What percentage of the death totals, are primarily from covid with co-morbidities as contributing factors, and what percentage are primarily from the co-morbidities with convid as a contributing factor?
Why? Where is the motivation? What would doctors have to gain by inflating COVID deaths? The congressman from Texas was not dying...until he got COVID. Herman Cain was not dying until he got COVID. COVID killed them, not their cancer.
In addition, do you not think big pharma is making out HUGE from this pandemic? They have a vested interest in promoting Covid deaths, and they control the political class and the MSM with they enormous wealth.
Hospital Payments and the COVID-19 Death Count - FactCheck.org
Q: Are hospitals inflating the number of COVID-19 cases and deaths so they can be paid more? A: Recent legislation pays hospitals higher Medicare rates for COVID-19 patients and treatment, but there is no evidence of fraudulent reporting. FULL QUESTION Are hospitals getting 13,000 per patient if...www.factcheck.org
Fucking COVID truthers are stupid and dangerous.
Your source does not say that there is not additional payment for covid cases.
"A: Recent legislation pays hospitals higher Medicare rates for COVID-19 patients and treatment, but "
"Numerous readers have asked us about such claims, some of which imply that hospitals are making money by simply listing patients as having the disease ā when in fact the payments referenced are for treating patients."
Wow. Based on the distinction between "listing" and "treating" they are judging that accusation as NOT TRUE?
Hilarious.
The figures cited by Jensen generally square with estimated Medicare payments for COVID-19 hospitalizations, based on average Medicare payments for patients with similar diagnoses.Medicare ā the federal health insurance program for Americans 65 and older, a central at-risk population when it comes to COVID-19 ā pays hospitals in part using fixed rates at discharge based off a grouping system known as diagnosis-related groups.The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services has classified COVID-19 cases with existing groups for respiratory infections and inflammations. A CMS spokesperson told us exact payments vary, depending on a patientās principal diagnosis and severity, as well as treatments and procedures. There are also geographic variations.An analysis by the Kaiser Family Foundation looked at average Medicare payments for hospital admissions for the existing diagnosis-related groups and noted that the āaverage Medicare payment for respiratory infections and inflammations with major comorbidities or complications in 2017 ā¦ was $13,297. For more severe hospitalizations, we use the average Medicare payment for a respiratory system diagnosis with ventilator support for greater than 96 hours, which was $40,218.ā
Your position was that there was no motive to inflate convid cases, and then you denied that more money was given for covid cases, and now that you have been forced to admit that there is more money,
now you are arguing that the money is justified.
My point that there is money as a motive to inflate the numbers has been proven, and even admitted by you.
Your link to the fact checker, made the claim that the claim of the hospitals getting more money for covid cases was NOT true, based on semantics.
Your fact checker and you, not long ago, were denying that the increased payments existed.
Data collected that includes, in reverse order this time, a financial incentive for inflating the numbers, with counted as from, and guesses,
is garbage data.
Yes, I refuse to waste my time digging though the shit to find a link for you, that you will ignore, the way you are ignoring that the money point has been validated.
Being reimbursed for services rendered is not "financial incentive", it is reimbursement for treatment, that's it. Nobody is making money off COVID deaths. This is just more of your COVID truther bullshit with no evidence to support your claim.
Being reimbursed more for a covid service, than a non-covid service is a financial incentive to report services as covid services.
Obviously.
That is why you first denied that it was happening.
That is why your fact checker site, played word games to be able to call it "not true".
They played a game with words, making a distinction between being paid for "listing" covid" and being paid for "treating" covid.
Being paid money, is benefitting.
You are painting yourself into a smaller and smaller corner.
Being given money is benefitting.
You have gone full partisan hack here.
