Yeah I think it was $13k to treat them, $39k if they died, plus all the organs they would get
It varies from state to state, hospital to hospital, but your figures are close to what I've heard in my area.
Around $12k for admitting a patient with covid. Around $36k if they get put onto a ventilator. And around $60k if they die in hospital "with covid".
Hospitals/doctors should get paid based on RESULTS. They should get that money for every patient who they CURE AND HELP TO RECOVER. This incentivizes them to do the best they can. As it is now, they are financially incentivized to have the worst possible things happen to patients. This is so backwards it makes me sick to my stomach.
