Unless you serve primarily Medicare/Medicaid patients and your hospital loses money on every single admission. We charge whatever we want, doesn’t mean we’ll actually get anything. Our safety net hospital is fighting to keep its doors open because others take advantage.

For any hospital that says they lose money on Medicare/caid patients, I would LOVE to see the bill of materials and direct overhead attributed to the procedures you lose money on How much you pay for that hip implant, the anesthesia, disposables, the doctors/nurses etc, for the period of time they are working on that hip replacement. The same for any operations or procedures It's crazy that I can't find that information ANYWHERE Please show me how you lose money on Direct Costs at Medicare or Medicaid rates , then we can discuss the value of all the consultants , paintings , beautiful buildings , etc contribute to your inability to make money on the Medies I even bought and went through hospital cost accounting text books and found no real numbers 😂

Want another reason why healthcare costs are insane ? Hospitals will not only charge a facility fee and other random costs BUT ALSO , if they believe the insurance company is willing to pay MORE THAN WHAT WAS ON THE PATIENT BILL, THEY WILL INCREASE THE BILL to the insurance company. Of course the insurance company then charges the self insured employer the higher amount. Our healthcare has become a game of who can rip off who and get away with it. Too Big To Care - all of it. Break em up !

Good morning to Melania Trump’s homeland of Slovenia and to this amazing magazine cover showing her husband with Hitler moustache made of crude oil. 🇸🇮🇪🇺 Slovenes cooked severely here.

RFK Jr. just broke down to a college student that the claim “vaccines don’t cause autism” has never been proven. “The people who told you that have been lying to you.“ “In fact, only one vaccine has ever been studied, the MMR vaccine.” “The 20 doses of the seven vaccines that are given during the first year of life — the DTP, the Hib, the hepatitis B, the pneumococcal vaccines and the polio vaccines — have never been studied.” “Congress passed the 1986 Vaccine Act and said, you’ve got to study the DTP vaccine… That study has never been done.” “The only studies that were done were MMR studies, and they were all epidemiological studies… you can’t prove causation with an epidemiological study.” “In 2017, the Institute of Medicine looked at all of the MMR studies and they threw out all but four of them… and the four that were left were all epidemiological studies.” “None of them did what you would want to do if you actually wanted the answer, which is to compare health outcomes in a vaccinated group against health outcomes in an unvaccinated group.” “That’s what we need to do and those studies we’re doing now.”

How the hell does the city that experienced the biggest Islamic terrorist attack in history vote for a Muslim mayor?

$META Zucks just went on Joe Rogan and absolutely demolished the Biden Administration for 3 hours. Goodness…I have never seen him this comfortable in speaking his mind about the government. Essentially he claims that the Biden admin heavily pressure $META on censoring any pushback people had to vaccines, even if conveyed via memes/satire. When they refused, government agencies began investigating them deeper to intimidate him. Looks like the Free Speech pivot on community notes & Dana White appointment to the board of directors is in line with Zucks setting up $META not only for the next 4 years of Trump but also for a new era of not working with the government to mass censor. We know the Trump administration wants all ideas to have an open platform & has heavily resisted Big Tech censoring speech so it seems like, on paper, $META and Trump will get along. The types of things Zucks is disclosing publicly today on the pod are unbelievable…

Based on how busy the roads were between 3am-6am, I’m predicting a hell’ish commute. Breaks my money making heart. I’ve handed off more orders to other drivers than I would have liked to, to make sure the schedule isn’t too tight.
