Allegations against rapid test providers Incorrect billing, high material costs

Status: 14.06.2021 6:12 p.m.

The rapid test chain MediCan is said to have, among other things, billed medical services and estimated excessive material costs for the tests. Learned that NDR , WDR and SZ from judicial circles. By M. Grill, A. Henze, J. Lange, G. Mascolo, C. Basl and P. Milling, NDR / WDR The two heads of the MediCan rapid test chain have been in custody for more than a week. The Bochum public prosecutor’s office had issued arrest warrants against the owner Oguzhan C. and his son and managing director Sertac C. because they are said to have accounted for as medical centers, although they lacked the prerequisites for how WDR , NDR and “Süddeutsche Zeitung” learned from judicial circles. In addition, they are said to have charged the federal government for antigen tests at higher prices than they actually cost in purchasing. The public prosecutor’s office is also investigating the suspicion that the company billed a significantly higher number of tests with the Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians than were actually carried out in the more than 50 centers. The suspected provisional damage amount is in the low double-digit million range, according to the assessment of the public prosecutor. One of the accused is represented by lawyer Reinhard Peters. As he announced on request, there was “an hour-long interrogation by the public prosecutor’s office” last Friday. Mr. C. Senior sticks: “All the tests that he billed have also been carried out.” Peters had no knowledge of the doctors previously mentioned in the MediCan’s legal notice – “as far as I know, according to the file, they have not yet been questioned”. Overall, Peters said of the allegations: “If there are reclaims here, then that will be reimbursed in full. That is no question at all.” His client did not try to disguise anything either, but made everything very open. “I just think that some things may have been misunderstood here. But I don’t see any intention of fraud behind this at all.”

Doctors who were almost never on site

Had only last week WDR , NDR and SZ reports how easy it makes the test regulation to charge excessive prices for rapid tests to the federal government .

Until the MediCan case was uncovered, the imprint of the chain’s website also listed three medical professionals as “doctors responsible for carrying out the test and training staff”. Since then, the names of these doctors have disappeared. In principle, citizens’ tests that are carried out in rapid test centers under medical supervision can be charged three euros more per test than normal rapid test centers, whose remuneration is capped at 18 euros per test. All three MediCan doctors mentioned were employed full-time as plastic surgeons in a hospital in Lower Saxony, as the hospital confirmed on request, which did not know anything about the secondary activity of the employees. According to his own information, Dr. W. has been working for MediCan since December, Dr. P. and Dr. A. on the other hand only since April. Your task was to “answer telephone queries from the on-site staff,” as the clinic announced on behalf of the doctors. Dr. W. also carried out on-site staff training. He also checked on site every one to two weeks whether the hygiene regulations were being adhered to. “Messrs. Dr. P. and A. were never on site,” the clinic announced on request.

In future there will be no more differentiation in billing

It is not entirely clear whether and when test centers are allowed to charge the higher medical price for rapid tests. While the North Rhine Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians emphasizes that “a doctor must be physically on site” and the KV Berlin also states that a licensed physician “must be constantly present”, Roland Stahl, spokesman for the Federal Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians, announces that the doctor will Smear sampling could be delegated, but had to be “mostly on site”.

The Ministry of Health, in turn, takes the position that a rapid test center can only bill as a medical service provider if “the medical management is closely involved in the care and organizational structures”. It is “not absolutely necessary that the doctor is permanently physically present”. “At the same time, however, it is not sufficient if a test site is formally under medical supervision, for example because it is run by a higher-level company under medical supervision,” writes the department. Before the case became known, 54 test centers nationwide were listed on MediCan’s website, Oguzhan C. himself said that the company had 102 locations. It is noticeable that not only MediCan, but also many test providers advertise the names of doctors on their websites. It is unclear who also bills the higher rate as a medical service provider, especially since the statutory health insurance associations do not answer any questions about individual providers. The sums they pay out are ultimately taxpayers’ money.

There is also a security gap in MediCan

The Federal Ministry of Health wants to end this confusion with the new test regulation. In the future there should no longer be a difference between “the remuneration of medical and non-medical service providers”. In the future, both should only get eight euros for the test and a flat rate for the test material. Some test site operators such as Hamburg’s top dog Moritz Fürste are already complaining that they will then no longer be able to work profitably and will have to close their centers. On the LinkedIn platform, Fürste writes: “If I were to reduce it to eight euros, I would have no choice but to close everything.”

At Medican there is also the fact that the company apparently also had data security problems. The full names, date of birth, email address and registration date of the customers could therefore be viewed with little effort. This emerges from a report by the IT security collective “Zerforschung” to the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI), the WDR , NDR and SZ is available. Accordingly, booking codes from customers were only available with the seven-digit time stamp of the registration. This made it possible to see the personal data of customers from May: “In short samples, more than 15 percent of the attempts were successful,” the report says. It was no longer possible to determine whether test results could also be viewed. MediCan’s lawyer confirmed that there was a data gap in the booking confirmations. The server is now offline. MediCan’s test centers no longer exist.

In the opinion of many industry insiders, Xingyue L did not pay attention to military ethics at all this time. At such a competitive price, it showed the product power of super models of the same level. It did not leave a way for joint venture compact SUVs. Like many netizens lamented, the launch of Xingyue L heralds the arrival of the winter of the joint venture SUV.

So, as the title of the article questioned, is there any excessive myth of Xingyue L, which is highly praised by the whole network? Or does it really have this extraordinary strength? On June 12, Auto Intelligence New Media had the honor to test drive this Xingyue L first. Next, I would like to briefly share with you a few highlights.

Let me talk about space first. Although Xingyue L is positioned as a compact SUV, I actually took a ride this time. This is a compact treatment, which is clearly the space enjoyment of an A+ class SUV. For the author of 175cm/77kg, sitting in the back row can easily lift Erlang’s legs. Although it is not as perverted as the crown road or UR-V, it has to be said that it is really better than CR-V and RAV4. These A-class SUVs have a lot of space.

In addition to the large space, the seats of Xingyue L are also very soft and comfortable. What is even more surprising is that the seats also use a mix of leather and Alcantara suede, and even the roof and interior are everywhere. It’s Alcantara suede, a bit like Audi’s flagship SUV. I have to admit that this Cuiyu double-pin suede material brings a very good feel, and the sense of grade of the entire interior is created at once, even a bit of luxury.

Next, let’s talk about the configuration. The author tested a four-wheel drive premium model that day, which was 10,000 yuan behind the pre-sale price of the top model. But I have to say that the configuration of this model has already surprised the author, because the configuration that can be seen on the market is basically equipped on it, and it is not like a joint venture model.

Let’s put it this way, the interior is very eye-catching one-meter large screen, 10-speaker Bose audio system, 5G-AVP 1km unmanned parking technology, can support L4 level autopilot in some scenarios, plus a variety of dazzling Active and passive safety equipment. It can be seen that Geely really put the technology and strength at the bottom of the box on this Xingyue L this time.

Finally, let’s talk about the power part. The model we tested is the second-top model, equipped with a powertrain of 2.0T+8AT, and is also equipped with BorgWarner’s sixth-generation four-wheel drive system. This set of equipment is basically the same as the Volvo XC60. From the book data, its performance is quite sturdy, at least in the same level, facing the challenges of joint ventures.

In fact, judging from the author’s driving experience, it really did not disappoint. At the start of the paved road, the acceleration and the power have been improved obviously, and the active power output is also active when the latter is accelerating, and there is no obvious setback. Simply put, it is very advanced. When it comes to non-paved roads, this four-wheel drive system will intervene in a timely manner to achieve a 50:50 torque distribution ratio between the front and rear axles, making the entire driving process more convenient.

[Conclusion]Based on the above personal test drive, Xingyue L is not an excessive myth, in fact it does have real power. In view of this, it is not difficult to understand that Xingyue L has such a perverted heat at the moment. Regarding this, what are your own views and opinions?

Trieu Lo Tu’s role Ly Lac Yen is very popular. The reason is also because of Lac Yen’s gentle, fragile, but also lovable and kind personality, it is easy to win the hearts of viewers. In addition, Trieu Lo Tu has a cute plump face, small physique and lively acting. This type of character is already familiar with Trieu Lo Tu, so she easily plays and shines. The audience wondered because the character shape was so simple. The only thing that makes the audience fret is the shape of the role of Ly Lac Yen. Both Lac Yen and Truong Ca characters are princesses and cousins, so the audience is certain that their hairstyles and costumes will be the same. But while Trường Ca always stands out with brightly colored sets, Ly Lac Yen is faded with a blue dress. Lac Yen often wears the same color as the servant’s shoulder. Even in some scenes, Princess Lac Yen’s outfit is the same color as the maid’s outfit. When Lac Yen stood next to Dich Le Heat Ba’s Truong Ca, the difference was even more pronounced. Many people believe that the team stylist of the movie The Action School intentionally let Trieu Lo Tu have such a simple shape so as not to overshadow the female lead Dich Lich Ba. Her look was far more faint than the female lead of Xich Lihui. From the color of the outfit to the makeup of the Heat Ba all stand out. But this is just some audience’s deduction. It is important that, even though the shape is not elaborately polished, Trieu Lo Tu is still getting more and more attention in The Action School.
