Tenet Healthcare, which is a partner of the Clinton Foundation, has an exceptionally high infant mortality rate of 12.5% in Florida, almost 3x the national average. Instead of trying to improve their care, Tenet healthcare paid Florida Governor Rick Scott $200,000 in campaign contributions and Scott then repealed all of Florida's pediatric heart surgery standards.
Article is found here.
Since Tenet Healthcare may be illegally harvesting organs it stands to reason that removing these heart surgery standards would only make their job even easier by removing even a pretense of responsibility.

It bears mentioning that Tenet Healthcare also has a history of performing unnecessary heart surgeries and procedures and was once forced to pay a $395 settlement.
Tenet's proud recovery fell apart in October 2002. A market analyst and an insurer who was subcontracted to make Medicare payments for government both noted independently that Tenet's rejuvenated profits resulted from a massive growth in "outlier payments" when compared with competitors. These are extra payments made to hospitals for the care of high risk patients and for complex procedures. At the same time the FBI raided one of Tenet's most profitable hospitals accusing its doctors of carrying out large numbers of unnecessary heart procedures and surgical operations. These are the sort of procedures that attract outlier payments. Authorities simultaneously commenced an investigation into Tenet's merger practices

How glorious it would be to take out(politically) Rick Scott.

It would be excellent. Son of a bitch sold out the children of his state and it wasn't even for a lot of money.

Courtesy of our friend DonaldWashington I now have the donation range that Tenet Healthcare gave to the Clinton Foundation. For context I also added in the numbers for Mayo Clinic.

Thank you from the bottom of my ❤️ for this. @Woftrail7272 and I worked on this and now is the time to finish it. Am on vacay so am only on phone some days. Please don't give up on this.

No problem, Carmencita. I will do my best.

I have pinged the Wolf but no reply. Knowing him he is working on this in another way. He will never forget the children or what is hurting St Louis.

I understand. He said he didn't want to telegraph his movements too much.

It was 20% between 2012 and 2015 at Tenet's St. Christopher's Hospital for Children in Pennsylvania! http://www.4-traders.com/TENET-HEALTHCARE-CORP-11877509/news/Tenet-Healthcare-Pa-reviews-infant-heart-deaths-N-Philly-program-to-reopen-24608868/
"The North Philadelphia hospital chose not to submit its patient data for the agency's previous report on pediatric heart surgery, issued in 2015. The hospital voluntarily stopped performing all non-emergency heart procedures in late January 2016 pending an internal review.
Hospital officials said Wednesday they were poised to resume offering the service this summer.
Soon after the stoppage last year, an Inquirer analysis found that 24 percent of newborns, defined as babies younger than 31 days, had died after heart surgery at St. Christopher's from 2009 through 2014. A month after that article was published, state investigators conducted a surprise three-day inspection of the facility, finding that the hospital failed to fully investigate why nine of its patients died after heart surgery."

Great find!
$395M (million) settlement is what you meant to type.
Here's the archived link to the CNN story about this: https://archive.is/ighZ7

Sorry about that. It was the middle of the night when I wrote this and I was pretty tired and loopy. I just knew I had to post it or I wouldn't be able to sleep. Thankfully it wasn't just $395 dollars they had to pay to victimized families.
Thanks for the link.

Great research.
The doctors who perform unnecessary surgeries should be in jail.
Tanngrisnir ago
Thank you! And definitely. They rightfully should be. But now they are probably able to legally intentionally have the surgery rooms dirty and use unsterilized tools to try to get the heart patients to die during surgery so they can steal the organs. It boggles the mind if you think about it.
quantokitty ago
Absolutely.
Think about those unnecessary surgeries on their own, wouldn't they in itself weaken the patient? Also what were they doing? Surgically removing healthy heart valves and replacing them with artificial ones? They could then sell the healthy ones.
The whole thing is disgusting. Money truly is the root of all evil.

Given their known connection to the Clinton Foundation, it can be logically assumed that Tenet is a key player in the organ harvesting aspects of pizzagate.
Their past history combined with presence in Haiti is likely the "howdunnit" of the crimes following the Haiti Earthquake.
Archive this now. This is important. Keep digging guys. I have a feeling the Tenet Healthcare lead we've got due to the Caruso thread may be key piece of the puzzle.
Tanngrisnir ago
I have that feeling like I am three feet from gold. Or three feet from a bullet. We already know so much about the scandals and illegal activity of Tenet Healthcare. An genuine FBI investigation could be a complete paradigm shift.
What we need is to get people angry about it. Hopefully people can use this to redpill some normies. Point out that Rick Scott is a pro-Trump Republican so they can see the problem goes beyond political affiliation. Couch the redpill in anti-Republican peanutbutter so they can get the Clinton Foundation portion after they accept that Tenet is depraved.

"Couch the redpill in anti-Republican peanut butter" lololol
Factfinder2 ago
If we can locate more personal stories from parents whose children have been affected, we'll have a better chance at redpilling. That's the kind of thing that really brings it home to people and makes their blood boil. Edit: There might be some leads to follow here: https://www.gjel.com/verdicts/tenet1.html
