re: Hospitals around the nation are seeing a 41% increase in non-covid mortality

Coded Covid = 20% increase in payment from Medciare
Not coded Covid = no bump in payment.

Seems like there's some control there, and in fact a monetary incentive.

You forgot one important thing, which has been mentioned to you over and over in his thread.

Not coding COVID patients as COVID = Lessens COVID cases, which would have allowed the hospitals to open up sooner, which would be wayyyyyy better to their bottomline than a 20% increase in payments from each COVID death.

So you have yet to answer why commit fraud to do one thing when you can commit fraud to do something else that would be much better for the business.

Most states are not opening back up.

Most states are, your statement is not correct

And those states are getting hammered for doing so.

They're also being praised for doing so.
