At the start of the clip, Senator Johnson poses a direct question: =E2=80= =9CDo pediatricians get incentivized with percent vaccination of their?=E2= =80=9D Hooker responds, =E2=80=9CYeah, they=E2=80=99re typically incentivized dire= ctly by HMOs.=E2=80=9D He continues, =E2=80=9CHMO=E2=80=99s buy and sell va= ccines so vaccines are big businesses for HMOs.=E2=80=9D Hooker then details the range of incentives that he says are available to p= ediatricians: =E2=80=9CBut the incentivization is usually anywhere from $20= 0 to $600 per fully vaccinated patient as long as a certain percentage of t= heir practice is fully vaccinated.=E2=80=9D The clip concludes with Hooker stating, =E2=80=9Cto a million or more per y= ear just in those incentives.=E2=80=9D Brian Hooker serves as the Chief Scientific Officer at Children=E2=80=99s H= ealth Defense, an organization known for its advocacy on vaccine safety iss= ues. He has testified and written extensively on vaccine policy, regulation= , and reporting systems. Senator Ron Johnson, who represents Wisconsin, has chaired and participated= in multiple Senate hearings examining government health policies and medic= al oversight. His line of questioning in this exchange centered specifically on whether p= ediatricians receive bonuses or payments tied to maintaining high vaccinati= on rates among their patients. The concept of provider incentives is not unique to vaccines. In the U.S. h= ealthcare system, quality metrics and performance benchmarks are often tied= to financial bonuses for physicians and clinics. These may include meeting= preventive care targets such as cancer screenings, blood pressure control,= or immunization coverage. According to publicly available documents from certain health insurers, vac= cination benchmarks are sometimes included in =E2=80=9Cpay-for-performance= =E2=80=9D contracts with physicians.=20 For example, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan has published guidelines in= dicating that practices can receive bonus payments if they meet or exceed c= hildhood immunization targets. These programs, however, vary by insurer and= by state, and the amounts can differ widely. While the Instagram video is only a short excerpt, its viral spread has pro= mpted discussion across social media platforms. Supporters of the clip have= highlighted Hooker=E2=80=99s statements as evidence that vaccines represen= t a significant revenue stream for healthcare providers and insurers.=20 Others have pointed out that incentive programs are a common feature of the= healthcare system aimed at encouraging adherence to recommended standards = of care. While cancer drugs bring in the most revenue for Big Pharma, it=E2=80=99s i= mportant to note that the COVID vaccine brought in around twenty times more= in just one year than OxyContin did in twenty years. In a post on X, Dr. Mary Talley Bowden highlighted what she described as a = stark financial incentive embedded in the COVID-19 healthcare response as w= ell.=20 She stated that had she vaccinated the roughly 6,000 COVID patients she tre= ated, she could have earned more than $35 million, contrasting that figure = with her decision to focus on patient care rather than vaccine administrati= on. Bowden further pointed to hospital billing practices, claiming that some ho= spitals collected up to $5,920.50 per shot, a figure she used to underscore= concerns about profit-driven medicine.=20 Her remarks have fueled renewed debate over the role of financial incentive= s in public health decisions and whether they may have influenced instituti= onal behavior during the pandemic. _______________________________ We=E2=80=99ve all been popping vitamins like candy lately=E2=80=A6 But according to Harvard, THIS vitamin [ https://substack.com/redirect/a4d6= f691-ce89-4965-8a13-b3ff7b2a2636?j=3DeyJ1IjoiM3NwZTR4In0.isA_GW4Ru2eo5riYdv= R2txbpgy3d4ZQIvACrlIS0otk ] has been linked to cancer!
