How many dollars do you think a hospital should receive (if any) if a Covid19 patient is so sick they require a ventilator?

Paul,
Lord knows I'm not saying the hospitals don't deserve the money, they surely do. From what I took from the conversation was that they were getting extra money just because it was Covid, so it would be easy to say patients already sick with something else could be classified as Covid and receive more funding. Which I think would be wrong. Like Randy said we probably won't know the truth, if and when it's ever investigated. I'm just saying it would be very sad if this was going on.
