Insurers collected $50 billion extra from Medicare by making questionable diagnoses, often without the knowledge of patients or their doctors.

I’ve been saying it for a while that healthcare is the next issue that will get addressed after the election. The insurance company/PBM cabal needs capped at the knees.

Insurance companies are starting to incentivize hospitals to play this game.
My primary care contract was supposed to have a multiplier in it that would have paid me more the more diagnoses like this that showed up. Luckily the hospital lawyers shut that down.

Trees will definitely love you back if you love them.
If I wasn’t a physician I’d be an arborist. They're fascinating.
Infact once I reach my networth goals and comfortable number to exit this f***d up, dirty and corrupt discipline that we can medicine … I’ll probably go full throttle on my landscaping company.
Still ways to go though.

This is really rich coming from the insurers, but we had a meeting yesterday where our billing/coding department presented some glossy papers from Humana with guidance of how to avoid inappropriate coding. The primary issue with our dept. was coding for HCC issues like CVA as an outpatient visit, as they see that as acute CVA management. They are afraid physicians are getting reimbursed too much for the issues they treat.🤣
