Doctors Received Bonus Payments to Administer COVID-19 Shots

 The Biden administration and health insurers incentivized doctors and health care providers with bonus payments and reimbursements - much of it taxpayer dollars - to vaccinate large percentages of their Medicaid patients with the COVID-19 shots.

Specifically, $200 million went to paying out financial rewards to health care providers who met certain performance marks raising the percentage of patients who had received the COVID-19 injection.

Under the ARPA and the provider relief fund established by Congress, more emphasis and money has been put on the COVID shot than any other shot despite all the dangers.

For patients injected before September 1, 2021, payments for doctors ranged from a $20 bonus per vaccinated person who injected 30 percent of their patients, to $125 per vaccinated person for those who vaccinated 75 percent of their patients.

A final incentive payment was paid to doctors for newly injecting people after September 1, 2021, at $100 per person who injected 30 percent of their patients, to $250 per vaccinated person for those who vaccinated 75 percent of their patients.

Anthem's Incentive program also included guidance to health care providers in how to "Soft start" conversations to convince hesitant patients to take the shot.

The guidance cautioned doctors not to question a hesitant patient's information sources, and implied those sources were not of "High quality" and that sources critical of the COVID-19 shot were "Misinformation." Rather, the guidance told doctors to downplay side effects, to advise patients the shot "Prevents infection" and that it "Is proven safe for all." Dr. Peter McCullough, an internist, epidemiologist, and one of the most published cardiologists in America, with over 1,000 publications and 660 citations in the National Library of Medicine has publicly stated the COVID-19 mRNA injection is toxic, dangerous, and the cause of sudden cardiac death in many.
