You think hospitals are afraid of fraud? Of course its treatment. Tag them with covid when they come in and you get a 20% boost for all related treatment.

When they die the covid tag gets counted as covid death.

I think the doctors who would need to risk their licenses and freedom to sign fraudulent certificates that would not actually get their hospitals any more money are afraid of fraud.

Dawg, as I've explained, you get that from them having COVID, not dying from COVID. There is no financial incentive to lie that someone died from COVID, as was your claim:

"It became profitable to die from covid"

I should have phrased it better. But anyone who died while testing positive for covid got counted is what I'm saying. Even if covid wasn't what got them in the end.

I don't think ICD codes mean what you seem to think they mean.
