Hospital capacity drives costs

Another good reason for the sick care industry to keep you in the dark about their intentionally doomed to fail weight loss advice - if you "need" the malpractice known as bariatric surgery, you fill a bed, or two, or three, or...

"Dr. Elliott Fisher, who led the study, said that more days in the hospital did not necessarily lead to better outcomes. Those patients were usually seen by more specialists, and they spent more time in the intensive care unit, but they did not live longer, on average.

'We know that hospitals are dangerous places if you don't need to be there,' Fisher said."

Amen. As in you never need to be there because you are fat.

"So, what led patients to visit the hospital more often? The report says it's the supply of beds — not how sick patients are — that is the key driver."

And the overweight/obesity issue is the key driver of chronic illnesses today.

You can fix it.
