I work in the medical industry, and I have had COVID patients tell me they don't think this is legit. They are forced into these rooms in a shut-down hallway, and they don't have a say in when they can leave. They are being locked down against their will, for $3900 (at least) a day, for the hospital in Medicare kickbacks. I'm hearing a lot of people saying they will do whatever it takes to not do business with the place that I am at, because of the way that they have handled this fake pandemic. Trump had passed an executive order regarding hospitals revealing their itemized true costs of care, medications, and procedures. So when a hospital is suddenly "opening up" the building, that's what they're really doing. They are hiding the fact that they are scamming people for hella bucks. There are hospitals out there being investigated for embezzlement, fraud, etc., on top of medical malpractice, #1 cause of death in the industry.
One article kind of talking about what I'm referring to.
For the most part you are on point however it is $2800 per patient for a positive COVID test (why there is no flu right now). $3900 is for patients with COVID on the vent.
No it's $39,000 for patients on a vent. Thirty-nine THOUSAND!
I dont know where you are getting your info but that is wrong. It is $3900 per patient on a vent. I am in the medical field, we get the CPT codes $39000 is completely wrong.
He may be talking about state hospital emergency relief. Some states set dollar figures based on covid numbers, on vent, covid death, etc. Once hospitals hit a certain quantity #, they received state emergency funds on a per patient basis. This money was not related to insurance reimbursement. I'll see if I can find the exact details.
No still incorrect. The CPT coding sheet says $2800 per covid positive case and $3900 for patient on the vent. Pretty cut and dry
