OLOL’s LSU donation seems shady

Their “Mission” has always been generating revenue, disguised as the appearance of providing healthcare. I can only imagine the backroom deals that led to this.

Ask Fuentes where it got him.

Even shadier is the percentage of the money that is tied to and managed by LSU athletics. That, and the percentage of academic's share that will go to providing insurance and medical care to "underserved and underprivileged" students.

Massive tax write off.
That’s pretty much it

How does LOL have $245 mil to just give away and why. I just can't figure this one out. Shouldn't they use this money to upgrade to new precision technology.

Covid-19 overpayments? Maybe it’s their way of paying LSU back for all the mandates?

It probably came from the Federal government.

Shady? Come on. There was a public 9 page RFI issued by LSU, the Foundation, Athletics, and TAF together.
1. There was a competitive process. A Request for Information was issued in November. Proposals were due in December: RFI Summary
** No clue what "hydrocodonehelp" is but it's a site that just pulled the Business Report content which is now behind paywall.
2. The RFI covered R&D, athletics, sports medicine, athletics, student health, the new Science Building, and strategic partnerships for the LSU System to pursue National Cancer Institute designation.
There was an extensive full proposal and review process.
Read the press release. It has a lot more detail including specific breakdowns on distributions into the programs requested in RFI: LSU, OLOL, LCMC Press Release
LCMC is NCI designation partner. Looks like OLOL is everything else.
NCI designation is among highest LSU strategic priorities.

Covid and LSU forcing kids to be vaccinated didn't hurt.

I just scanned the release. It says OLOL will put in $170 million of the $245 million in the first 10 years of the deal. What will the extra $75 million go toward and when will it be used?
Also, this highlights a bit of the real motivation for OLOL:

Bribe to LSU by OLOL to remain as a LSUHSC teaching hospital?

$245M = $170M (OLOL) + $75M (LCMC).
From the release:
"LCMC Health has committed $75 million to revolutionize cancer research, treatment and outcomes in Louisiana and ensure a sustained talent pipeline for the state’s healthcare industry." All NCI designation with Health Science Center(s).
This was a very competitive process.

Aren't they a non-profit? Why would they need a massive tax write off?

There's so much extra money in Hospitals that 2 not-for profits accumulated so much profits that they combined have $250-$300 million in accumulated excess financial assets that are not needed for operations or capital needs. It's not from fee for services, but rather from pooling contracts and pulling down grant revenue from the feds for providing care to patients who have medicaid or medicare. Then came COVID and the CARES act which just poured gas on the money tree. I am happy for LSU I guess but in a bit of a quandry as to whether this is a net good. Like how could this set of circumstances happen? It's pretty crazy.
