Most Pediatricians Refuse to Treat Unvaccinated Children Because They Are Paid a Bounty for Every Fully Vaccinated Child in Their Practice above a Certain Threshold

I recently talked to a couple with a newborn baby who had to leave their pediatrician’s office because the pediatricians would not allow them to forgo getting their child vaccinated. The pediatricians continually pushed to allow the nurse to vaccinate their newborn baby. When the parents requested that the nurses and doctors please stop continually pestering them to have their child vaccinated, she was told that their office would allow a delay in the vaccination schedule but they would eventually have to get their child fully vaccinated. The pediatric office has posted on its website a notice that it follows “the national standards of care set forth by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP).” According to the CDC vaccination schedule, their child would need to receive more than 47 total doses of vaccines (including boosters) that covered 17 different diseases before the child reached 15 months old. That pediatric practice of 15 doctors stated that if the parents persisted in not allowing them to vaccinate their child they would need to abide by their written policy, which required them to “find another pediatrician who agrees with your beliefs.”

The parents called pediatricians to find another doctor for their newborn child. The first four offices that the parents called refused to treat their child unless they agreed to have him vaccinated. A fifth office finally agreed to see their child without him being vaccinated, but only if they submitted a religious exemption.

It seems that there is a medical phalanx set up to push parents into vaccinating their children. The Immunization Action Coalition (IAC) provides doctors with a “Sample Vaccine Policy Statement: Ready for you to adapt for your practice.” That policy statement template states, in pertinent part that “if you should absolutely refuse to vaccinate your child despite all our efforts, we will ask you to find another healthcare provider who shares your views. We do not keep a list of such providers, nor would we recommend any such physician.”

The Immunization Action Coalition is funded “in partnership with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)” which “provided financial support to IAC.” The Children’s Health Defense revealed that the CDC has acted as a captured government agency that is under the control of the vaccine industry.

The latest data and science show that specific vaccines are unequivocally not safe. Yet government officials – with well-documented conflicts of interest with the $50 billion vaccine industry – systematically obscure the risks while exaggerating the benefits of vaccines.

The government has quietly admitted culpability by paying out over $4 billion for thousands of injuries and deaths caused by vaccines underscoring that vaccine injuries can and do happen, including autism. And, an HHS-funded study concluded that fewer than 1% of vaccine injuries are even reported.

Big Pharma is exerting influence over WHO, FDA and CDC to fast track and short cut safety studies in order to gain more profits faster. Big Pharma has zero financial risk when children get vaccine injured because the government prevents victims from suing big pharma – resulting in big pharma not being concerned about child vaccine safety.

And CDC, frankly, is a vaccine company; it owns 56 vaccine patents  and buys and distributes $4.6 billion in vaccines annually through the Vaccines for Children program, which is over 40% of its total budget. Further, Pharma directly funds, populates and controls dozens of CDC programs through the CDC foundation.  A British Medical Journal editorial excoriates CDC’s sweetheart relationship with pharma quotes UCLA Professor of Medicine Jerome R. Hoffman “most of us were shocked to learn the CDC takes funding from industry… It is outrageous that industry is apparently allowed to punish the CDC if the agency conducts research that has potential to cut into profits.”

The couple has come up against a massive syndicate funded by vaccine manufacturers. The couple’s ordeal in finding a pediatrician who will treat their unvaccinated child is not unusual. Many pediatricians refuse to see child patients whose parents have decided not to have their children receive vaccines. Doctors are increasingly encouraged to refuse service to unvaccinated child patients based on a policy published in 2016 by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) that allows pediatricians to dismiss the child patients of parents who refuse vaccines. The Greenville News reported that “[a] two-month-old baby was recently denied care at a Carolina Forest pediatrician’s office due to his parents’ stance on vaccines.” The report reveals:

That decision stems from a policy adopted by recommendation of the American Academy of Pediatrics, according to Brian Argo, chief financial officer of Conway Medical Center, which operates CPG Pediatrics.

You will notice that the spokesman for the pediatric office was the “chief financial officer.” Why would the chief financial officer be the one who is giving the reasons for the policy of refusing service to unvaccinated children? Brian Argo has an MBA, not an MD; he is a financial expert; he is not a medical expert. You would think that there would be a medical reason for the policy. You would think that the pediatrics office would appoint a medical doctor to give a medical reason for the policy. Instead, the pediatric office appoints a financial officer to present the rationale for refusing service to unvaccinated children. But he does not give a financial reason, nor does he give a medical reason; he gives as the reason a recommendation by the AAP. Unsurprisingly, he did not say that the pediatric office makes a lot of money by vaccinating children, and every unvaccinated child in its medical practice threatens that money stream.

Alex Pietroski, a reporter for Waking Times, alleged that “it is now very difficult to find a pediatrician who will accept a family who doesn’t vaccinate. Even parents who partially vaccinate or follow a different schedule have a hard time finding a doctor. Here’s why: doctors have to vaccinate a certain percentage of their patients or they don’t get their bonus. BCBS [Blue Cros Blue Shield] says doctors need to vaccinate 63% of their patients to get the payout [of $400 per vaccinated child].”

Pietroski alleges that there is a financial motive at the core of pediatricians not allowing unvaccinated children in their practice. Pietroski made a fantastic allegation that many pediatricians will not treat unvaccinated children because they need a certain threshold of patients in their medical practice to be vaccinated to be paid a bounty from insurance companies for each vaccinated child. I researched Pietroski’s allegation. What I found was surprising. The evidence establishes that his allegation is true.  Below are screenshots from the Blue Cross Blue Shield 2016 Performance Recognition Program. I have also attached the entire booklet for download below.

Under that program, if a pediatrician is able to convince 63% of the parents of children to receive the full schedule of the ten (10) listed vaccines prior to the child’s second birthday, the pediatrician will receive a $400 bounty per patient from Blue Cross Blue Shield. This is a perverse monetary incentive for pediatricians to push for childhood vaccines. By the way, this is only one of the incentive programs being run by one insurance company in Michigan. There are no doubt many others.

Incidentally, Alex Pietroski alleges in his post indicates that a pediatrician can make up to $40,000 per year from this program. That is just an example. There is, in fact. no limit under the program to the amount of money the pediatrician can make each year. For example, if the pediatrician has 200 patients meeting the Childhood Immunizations- Combo 10 program criteria, with a bounty of $400 per child, he could make $80,000 per year.

Indeed, the $80,000 per year figure is much closer to reality. In 1999, A research study was conducted of eighty-nine pediatric practices in 31 states involving 373 individual pediatric practitioners. The study found that “each practitioner cared for an average of 1546 patients” over a two-year period.  That is an average of 773 patients each year. The study was not a measure of office visits; it was a measure of individual patients treated regardless of the number of office visits. Thus, one patient visiting the office three times over the two-year period would be counted as a single patient. The study found that 27.4% of all pediatric patients were 2 years old or younger. Thus, on average, each pediatrician treated 211.8 (773 x .274 = 211.8) patients that were two years old or younger per year. That means that the average pediatrician can count on a bounty payout of approximately $84,720 per year from the Blue Cross Blue Shield Childhood Immunizations- Combo 10 program. That assumes that the doctor is able to convince 100% of his parents to vaccinate their children. If he is only able to convince 63% of parents, which is the bare minimum to qualify for the bounty, he would stand to make $53,374. Thus, the average pediatrician can make between $53,374 and $84,720 per year in vaccine bounty payments. The important driver for him to push vaccinations on every parent is that if his rate of child vaccinations drops below 63% he will make $0.

This financial incentive to have a certain threshold (63%) of fully vaccinated children in their practice explains perfectly why some pediatricians will not allow unvaccinated children in their practice. Every child in their practice who is not fully vaccinated will bring them closer to their minimum threshold and threaten their $400 bounty for each vaccinated child. The Pediatrician, who you think should be looking out for your child’s best interest, has a monetary incentive to ignore the mountain of evidence that vaccines are both ineffective and dangerous to children. Now you know why there has been no push-back from pediatricians about the acceleration of vaccines being injected into infants. They are financially incentivized to be willfully ignorant doctors.

Vaccines Increase Mortality of Infants

Study Shows That Vaccinated Children Are Significantly Less Healthy Than Unvaccinated Children

When you visit a pediatrician and find them pushing vaccines, you now know why. It has nothing to do with the well-being of your child. It has everything to do with money.  Indeed, there is a perverse incentive to pressure parents to have their children vaccinated as early as possible. Because if the pediatrician does not meet the 63% threshold, he receives zero (0) dollars under the program. Thus, every parent is lobbied hard to have their child vaccinated before their second birthday. The pediatrician has a pecuniary incentive to load as many vaccines into the child as early as possible. Thus, the adverse effects from the vaccines are accentuated because the child’s immature immune system is being attacked and compromised when it is least able to deal with the many poisons in the vaccines. “For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” (1 Timothy 6:10)
