Follow-up on my $5,853 ER bill:
99281 minimal → 99285 life-threatening (highest)
My visit: minor cut, no imaging, no meds
Yet billed at 99285 + 2 physician charges
Avg similar visits: $300–$1,000
This is why price transparency matters

Aetna. The MA plan Mayor Adams tried to force us into #upcoding #downcoding #MedicareFraud $177M @dojphofficial fine & still get rewarded by @CMSGov this week w/higher capitated rates. Curb the fraud. Then we have a conversation. #nycretirees #TradtionalMedicare #WeEarnedIt
Jefferson Health sues Aetna over ‘downcoding’ policy
I’m surprised they couldn’t make this a class action lawsuit

@Piratenpartei Wie wird die @CDU zwischen richtigen und upgecodeten Diagnosen unterscheiden?
Also abgesehen davon dass es gegen Art. 1 GG verstößt.
#Upcoding Patienten erhalten falsche Diagnosen, damit mehr abkassiert werden kann.
@realdocspeaks @BrandiChane Medicare fraudsters are blacklisted unless there are different laws for big corporations @RobertKennedyJr @DrOz #upcoding

Instead of throwing $80 billion at individual IRS audits, a quick glimpse into hospital billing would expose the massively fraudulent Medicare/Medicaid #upcoding running rampant & costing us billions. Got a cough? Nah, it's coded COVID now & you’ll be in a freezer truck later.💰

PODCAST: In episode 6 of our #ProofinTrialPodcast, hear from a medical record software company accused of defrauding the U.S. government and the team of lawyers committed to finding the fundamental flaw in the plaintiff's case. #upcoding #healthdataanalytics #hoganlovellsfca
Heute Anruf Krankenkasse X, 'Ihr Patient Y ist im DMP eingeschrieben und hat eine Niereninsuffizienz, die müssen Sie noch kodieren...'
Pat. Y hat übrigens GFR von 60 ml/min.
Hey KK Y, das ist unser Job nicht Eurer und Anstiftung zum #upcoding kommt nicht gut an!
Die #Manipulationsbremse wirkt:
Einige Kassen haben klar erkennbar darauf verzichtet, in ein #Upcoding zu gehen.
Dies macht den #morbiRSA als Instrument für den #Finanzausgleich der #GKV valider.
Deshalb: möglichst wenige Ausnahmen zulassen!
Beim #Finanzausgleich der gesetzlichen #Krankenkassen soll die neu eingeführte Manipulationsbremse nun erstmals wirken. Doch zwischen den Versicherern ist ein Streit über mögliche Ausnahme entbrannt. Schlichtet nun das @BMG_Bund?

Bei den Ermittlungen rund um das vermeintliche #Upcoding durch die AOK Rheinland/Hamburg ist auch der ehemalige #KV Hamburg-Chef #Plassmann ins Visier der Justiz geraten. https://t.co/HhC7Hmpily
US hospital care & billing create perverse incentives to exaggerate diagnoses & severity.

In this clip, @JakeTapper is absolutely right that counting all people in the hospital WITH COVID as being there FOR COVID is wildly misleading -- especially since it applies to close to 50% -- but it's so striking how many arguments that were long taboo are now all being aired.
Here's hoping this NIH grant helps you expose the #profiteering and fraudulent #upcoding carried out by the private insurers who sell MedicareAdvantage plans.
Just received my award notice for my first NIH grant (R21) as PI! Thank you to my mentors who have helped me get here! Can't wait to delve into the world of Medicare Advantage network design with a great team! @amal_trivedi @momotazur @maricruzriver @NIMHD
