I can write a book on this, having worked in healthcare on the financial side the last 20+ years. Anyhow, this isn't the site for that stuff, so let's just leave it at ... these people who suddenly are experts in ICD-10 codes, who say there is wide spread corruption here, well they are completely wrong.

Send him to da club.

I'll say this much and then bow out because Max has his rules for a reason: I don't disagree with the intent or reasoning, just stating that the bolded is not as easy as it might have been back in the day. Everything is electronic and undergoes a "maker-checker" system which essentially means that there are at least two pairs of eyes on it before it can even be submitted, and then it goes through governance.

There is always the possibility of people trying to scam the system, but that doesn't mean it's been incentivized by the govt. If the nurse in that situation is going around telling patients that, it's going to be hard for that hospital to keep their doors open. That's my only point. 

I'm with ya. I just dont discount anything either way. Stranger things have happened in the world that have been far more complicated. I dont think the government is intentionally incentivizing anything, but shady people be shady people. That's all.

Who was it? Hogan right? It has to be that bum. He can't even catch COVID.

Surprised The Jets or the NFL haven’t released any official updates on this.

You think Flacco has been walking around town licking doorknobs so he wouldn't have to play a game for Gase this week?

Not sure if the NFL will be able to hold this together with all the players going home and out in the general public, where they are exposed to their kids, who go out to school, etc,.

The general public doesn't get the rapid test. They're not widely available. The NFL spent $75 million to purchase these tests in August. 

What? Not at all true. I have had to send my employees out for rapid testing on 4 occasions. Readily available every time at multiple local clinics.

Rapid tests readily available at an urgent care in Queens. Free with most, if not all, insurance. 

There are also some doctors offices that can do PCR tests in house and can get you results within 24 hours.

Not doubting what you were told, but there's as much truth in that as there is in saying that masks don't matter. There's no possible way any public entity would be able to incentivize deaths. Not treating the patient once they hit a certain stage is one thing, actively promoting death is another. 

haha, i think he meant that is that Medicare is paying more for patients with COVID diagnosis. I think that part is true, I'm sure some people would take advantage of that but I would seriously doubt it's anything more than a tiny minotiry and not wide spread enough to have any large impact on overall #'s

 

[Nixhead]

Im hearing it could of been our best player and only possible all pro - Sam Ficken. Heard we had other kickers in this week - why would Jets do that when our kicker hasn't missed all year - oh yeah he's Adam Gase. 

[Mogglez]

dammit, now I have to watch the Jets on Sunday.

So much for the Jets winning the Super Bowl

Yep and Jets missed an important day of practice which is probably good in hind sight because our goal isn't to win games - we want the #1 pick.

One game closer to Trevor Lawrence!

Anything Florio, Peter King and that ilk say is more or less fake news 100% of the time. They want rona around forever while they collect millions to finger wag.

[JetsFanatic]

It was a false positive
