My friend’s daughter thought she had c19. She got tested, and it came back negative. Then, they got the ER bill. It wasn’t the price, necessarily, that bothered them. It was the patient descriptor within the bill that alarmed them: covid patient. Her mom called and asked, “What the heck?!!” First, she says, “She isn’t a covid patient, nor was she ever.” Second, “I thought all covid related bills were covered?” The nurse says, “Oh… we’ll have to look into that. Disregard the bill, and I’ll try to change her status in the system”. Click. So… not only are they attempting (my speculation) to collect from the parents when they’re not supposed to, but they’re likely registering her within their system as a covid patient for the government payoff. A little double dipping never looked so tasty.

I work in a elderly home and my friend is a head nurse in a hospitel. The biggest problem we have that constantly testing lead to people staying at home as a case and understaffing is the biggest problem. The cofib beds are not the problem but the staf that is supposed to surround them is!
Hospitals (in the U.S. anyway) are notorious for doing as many procedures, and billing for as many things, as they possibly can. ESPECIALLY now. The nonsensical lockdowns and all the cancelled tests and surgeries were a big cash hit to hospitals’ bottom line. So they’re out to scrounge cash wherever they can get it. And I’m sure there are financial and other incentives to get the number of “Covid” patients up as high as possible.
