Senator and Doctor: Hospitals Get Paid More to List Patients as COVID-19 and Three Times as Much if the Patient Goes on Ventilator<\/h2>\n

Last night Senator Dr. Scott Jensen from Minnesota went on The Ingraham Angle to discuss how the AMA is encouraging American doctors to overcount coronavirus deaths across the US.<\/span><\/p>\n

This was after Dr. Scott Jensen, a Minnesota physician and Republican state senator, told a local station he received a 7-page document\u00a0coaching him\u00a0to fill out death certificates with a COVID-19 diagnosis without a lab test to confirm the patient actually had the virus.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dr. Jensen also disclosed that hospitals are paid more if they list patients with a COVID-19 diagnosis.<\/span><\/p>\n

And hospitals get paid THREE TIMES AS MUCH if the patient then goes on a ventilator.<\/span><\/p>\n

Senator Dr. Scott Jensen:<\/strong>\u00a0Right now Medicare is determining that if you have a COVID-19 admission to the hospital you get $13,000. If that COVID-19 patient goes on a ventilator you get $39,000, three times as much. Nobody can tell me after 35 years in the world of medicine that sometimes those kinds of things impact on what we do.<\/span><\/p>\n
