Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden speaks during a campaign rally at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds in St. Paul, Minn., on Friday. | Andrew Harnik/AP PhotoDemocratic nominee Joe Biden on Friday decried President Donald Trump for alleging medical providers are juicing Covid-19 statistics to generate additional revenue.
“Our doctors are smart people, so what they do is say ‘I’m sorry but, you know, everybody dies of Covid,’” Trump continued, asserting that each coronavirus death was worth “like $2,000 more” without providing further details.

The pandemic has become the defining issue of this year’s presidential contest. Trump has said that he was on a glide path to a second term before the virus came ashore earlier this year, and he has fervently defended his administration’s response as Biden seeks to make the election a referendum on Trump’s leadership.
Every Covid patient is money in the bank for doctors!
umm -- pot meet kettle.
Unfortunately, that 'is' correct, from March-May, many MDs came on social media & gave a payscale, but mainstream media down played it, especially in New York City. Then shortly thereafter loys of layoffs & cuts in the 'middle' of a pandemic. There's plenty Receipts. Isis
Real Christians don't support abortion, lies, or socialism 🙏🇺🇸🙏
Don’t hospitals get more funding if they claim covid cases?
Joe shouting and rambling again... it's painful to watch 🤦♂️
Well they are Joe. You shouldn’t be surprised that they would take advantage of Covid for Financial gain. You apparently have been playing the financial gain game for a long time At the expense of the American people for shame

It’s true JoeBiden and fact!
If it isn't true, then why even give it the time of day? Alas, there is truth here. Blue states have use this pandemic in a failed attempt to make Trump look bad. Also, COVID-19 has cured heart disease, cancer, the flu, and natural causes. Miraculous.
You can bet your ass they are.
That sounds like something Trump would do to increase his profits!!
They are being juiced though.
Except for the fact that they are
WELL, A CV19 ‘DEATH CERTIFICATE,’ GARNERS $60k, TO $80,000(ventilator) TO THE HOSPITAL- A SAD FACT! LOOK IT UP !
It's a fact well known by medical professionals. A covid19 death on the death certificate is money in the bank for them....but like a lot of facts today, Democrats deny the truth.
There have been dozens of confimations of this.
Politico: I guess the underlying story was 'too good to check out.' You are FakeNews. You are the EnemyofThePeople.
.realDonaldTrump is morally bankrupt!
I hope Trump lost the vote of the entire health and related professionals after reading this!
Stop paying them for Covid cases. Start incentivizing lower case counts.
trumphatesdoctors COVID19 COVID I plan on voting for Biden
Never underestimate President Trump when he says something it turns out to be true.realDonaldTrump USSupremeCourt foxandfriends CNN MSNBC
Because they are
Fact Checking Harry Reid is the longest serving Senator serving 30 years False Joe Biden did not serve 47 years on the Senate
Biden and the virus-
He's wrong.
Put politics aside, it was discussed on NPR how doctors/hospitals are more motivated to claim under Covid to get more money. can claim more if they have Covid.
JoeBiden healthcare workers have admitted it is true. Get your head out of your a$$.
So instead of investigating it, he just flat out denies it and slams Trump. Think about that for a minute. He has no idea of the validity of the statement or not & you think he's capable of making important decisions when he can't even be basic level objective?
Misinformation, innuendo, disinformation, mistakes, uninformed, unfounded, misleading,label it how do you like, but it’s called lying. That’s what Trump does best.
DoctorsForBiden And no one practices “defensive medicine “ either. (Thank you lawyers and the democrat party). It COSTS MORE to treat a COVID / suspected COVID patient - so reimbursement had to be higher
So the doctors and nurses of the WORLD are lying. Wow that's a hell of a lot of people to hush money to.
They are reimbursed more for COVID casas so the incentive is there.
Why is he decrying something that's true?

Probable Numbers is how they get away with it FabricatedNumbers - You can than the CDC DrFauci Bullies Governmentgod PseudoscienceReligion DeMaskUsExperience TyJ
Duh they are. Trump's just calling it.
As we lose more doctors & medical workers than ever. As they put their lives in danger, for a country where many won't put on a mask to protect them, and Trump is the ring leader in driving this behavior, he has the audacity to say they are cheating on the of covid deaths! Vote!
Per CDC data: all cause mortality 2017-19, 267K per month average deaths. 2020 - average 24K COVID deaths per month yet all cause mortality rate is same (actually a little lower) than the last 3 year average!!! Something is wrong here. Go to CDC site and see for yourself
Absolutely false! Mr President do you ever get tired of all the lies? You try to repeat an article or quote but purposely flip the words to a lie. Now when you tell how you were lied on you claim mistreated (then you start whining) fire him, lock her up!Then you lie again!
Doesn't mean it isn't true. Lay people have been hearing this from medical people for months!!! And that's just the tip of the iceberg!
northsunm35 Projection.
They definitely have an incentive to that doesn't mean that they all are.
Republicans once said something similar about climate scientists 🙄.
Joe knows about juicing for extra revenue too
The second the fed gov gave extra money to hospitals for covid patients everyone knew that would happen.
They absolutely are
They absolutely, positively are inflating the data
If Joe Biden wins these journalists are going to be on their knees giving Joe Biden fellatio on a daily basis. No doubt they will swallow without having to be told.
In a perfect world all politicians & political parties would be held accountable for divisive destructive & demeaning actions & words. We see the same issues repeated. Do we need to update the rules of politics? The rules of accountability? Politics uspoli cdnpoli poll
Actually, there was evidence of this being reported months ago. Even left-leaning publications were reporting on this in the beginning, but then it was determined that this fact went against the approved narrative so the media couldn't discuss it anymore.
I guarantee that this is true.
100% true. Know several people who work in health care and have confirmed. When you operate on slim margins, have the govt telling you how to run your business and revenue is way down, you’ll do whatever you can to earn more. I don’t blame the hospitals, I blame the govt.
Bobalinski. Biden sold out his office to our enemies to enrich himself and his family!
VOTE FOR ETHICAL JOE BIDEN AS PRESIDENT & ALSO VOTE FOR KAMALA HARRIS AS V-P. TRUMP IS A BLATANT LIAR & SELF-SERVING CON ARTIST; CLAIMS HE'S HELPING HIS SUPPORTERS BUT HE'S ONLY LINING HIS POCKETS ALONG W/FAMILY & RICH DONORS!
Now is a critical moment for mankind, Free democratic civilized society, Righteous peoples, Must be united！ To defend Truth, Freedom and Order! Act now, Let the truth come to light! Decisively eliminate 'Community of interests' all over the world.
Trump just took whatever support he had left from the medical establishment and threw it right in the trash. At this rate all he will have left are the bots the mouth breathers on this thread
Trump has no clue how the US healthcare system works. It's the reason he couldn't do any healthcare reform. Only drug manufacturers are likely to make money from this pandemic if at all. Trump is just a lying imbecile.
FIX THE BROKEN ECONOMY, FIX CLIMATE CHANGE, NOT ELECTIONS . FIX PANDEMICS, NOT ELECTIONS, NOW VOTE SMART. 250,000 DEAD CAUSED BY trumps NEGLIGENCE AND MISMANAGEMENT.
🇺🇸 EXCLUSIVE_REPORT U.S. ECONOMY grew at its fastest pace ever in the third quarter as a nation battered by an unprecedented pandemic started to put itself back together, the Commerce Department reported Thursday.
Politicians making ludicrous statements about covid to push their agenda are a disgrace.
Can confirm. Billing for providers and the numbers are juiced.
I know for a fact they make deaths covid because they get more $ but that's old news. I heard about it months ago & did my own research to prove it. Use common sense, do your own research & always question everything. Get a VPN so big brother can't follow u.
Not speaking for everywhere. This is definitely happening at the 2 local hospitals here, and it’s widely known. Of corse this is Louisiana and corruption, cooking, and partying are kinda our things so I’m sure it’s way different where you guys live.
Why is anyone surprised there is fraud in Medicare? It’s estimated that about 10% of what the government pays out is fraudulent. Until 9/1, hospitals didn’t need to provide a positive Covid test, they only needed to have a hunch Covid was a factor.
It’s true.

Thank goodness!!! Libertarian Porcupine
Real Christians don’t HATE! Vote blue
morgfair Why is everybody just ignoring Trump’s health care plan?
It’s the Truth.. oh Joe wouldn’t know about that ... all he does is .. lie lie lie ..!
This man needs a mental evaluation. Something is mentally challenged with this man! And y’all can’t see this
Let me help out with this.
Couldn’t possibly be his failed leadership
Trump can't even take the basic steps to protect himself
Trump is desperately looking for supporters. The more he talks, the more supporters he loses! He should continue his rally’s until Election Day! In November 4th, I don’t want to read any tweets and there won’t be any rally’s. Hopefully, your country can start a recovery process.
Trumpists love victim and do gooder shaming. It’s the doctors fault. Rittenhouse is being treated unfairly. Rinse repeat, they’re just 🗑 VoteHimOutandLockHimUp
Trump! He just HAS TO GO! Saying our medical heros are lying and making bank from phony COVID numbers! If he relapses, just leave his ass in the hallway on a stretcher! (Of course they won’t)...but I WOULD!
What other reason would there be for categorizing a motorcycle crash fatality as a covid death?
