This article "State Incumbent Worker Training Reimbursement Programs" focuses on the incumbent worker training programs and retraining tax credits.

I was hoping in this article The Grayzone would be able to highlight more individual instances of direct and indirect spending in Ukraine, but unfortunately most of that information remains secret.

But The Grayzone was able to audit some detail out of the documented spending by the US Government and it sure doesn't fail to shock with its absurdity.

So US Government debt, as always, is only an problem when the money is being spent on American Workers.

Though Joe Biden likes to pretend to be a big defender of Social Security and Medicare, his history is one of someone waiting eagerly for the opportunity to gut and privatize Social Security, and along with his Republican counterparts, has largely succeeded in Privatizing Medicare. Which is, of course, turning into one big scam where Insurance companies charge the Govt whatever they feel like and being largely reimbursed for it.

At every opportunity, Joe Biden quietly reaffirms to his donors his commitment to cutting Social Security and uses the usual coded language of "adjustments" and "saving" the program, in other words, cutting it.

But when it comes to money for Ukraine, no "adjustments", "changes" or "saving" of the program is necessary, even a year and a half and at least $100 Billion dollars into it.

This is also important to keep in mind. The CIA's "Black Budget" allows the Agency to spend nearly unlimited amounts of money, ammunition, equipment and weaponry with little to no oversight whatsoever.

Even as the infrastructure of the United States falls apart from disrepair, we send billions to Ukraine for their own infrastructure needs.

Just as with Social Security and Medicare, it's okay for Americans to die in large numbers due to accidents related to failing infrastructure.

As a NY Times article from November 2015 describes:

"The Federal Department of Transportation estimates that obsolete road designs and poor road conditions are a factor in about 14'000 highway deaths each year. Research by Ted Miller, a senior research scientist at the Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation, which receives financing from the Transportation Department, put the medical cost of highway injuries from poor road conditions at $11.4 billion for 2013 according to the latest data available."

"The problem extends beyond roads. Research by the National Transportation Safety Board shows that since 2004, about 77 deaths and 1'400 injuries could have been prevented if railroads had installed a safety system known as Positive Train Control. That includes an Amtrak derailment in May that killed eight people and injured hundreds more in Philadelphia."

But that's okay, we're preventing road deaths in Ukraine. We can always feel good about that!

But we're also suspiciously sending money designated for Ukraine to companies and governments completely unrelated to Ukraine, because literally anything can be tied to this war for Govt Lawyers and bureaucrats

Vast sums are also being spent on various psy-op programs and propaganda efforts through various media organizations, NGOs and think-tanks.

"The funds were earmarked 'to strengthen the International Center for Ukrainian Victory (ICUV) initiative in implementing international advocacy campaigns to keep high levels of International solidarity with Ukraine' "

AKA Propaganda and psy-ops

Interestingly, much of the funds spent by USAID earmarked for Ukraine seems to have gone to various programs completely unrelated to Ukraine.

It shows us that these organizations are NOT in fact humanitarian organizations, and they have little interest in actually helping real Ukrainians.

Rather, the point of all these "Humanitarian" organizations, NGOs, etc. is wash public funds and put them into the pockets of Western Oligarchs through a web of programs and organizations that always conveniently hire all the well known Washington DC Law Firms and Consulting Firms, big Wall Street investors, Silicon Valley Tech Giants, and huge Western Corporations to get involved in these regime change wars and "Humanitarian" Interventions, as well the "rebuilding" after war.

Wall Street gets to collect public funds in the run-up to wars, during wars, and after the wars they funded are over.

Rinse and repeat in Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Iraq, and now Ukraine.

And then there are some expenditures that will raise eyebrows for another reason, because it very suspiciously looks like the funding for the Nordstream Pipeline terrorist attack and the supplies needed for the operation.

The Pentagon sponsors diving contractor with “history of fraud” to send mysterious explosives to Ukraine

The Department of Homeland Security sent $5.48 million to Gravois Aluminum Boats LLC on June 8, 2021 for the following purpose: “PROCUREMENT OF TWO 38-FOOT FULL CABIN RESPONSE BOATS, FOUR 38-FOOT CENTER CONSOLE RESPONSE BOATS, TRAILERS, SPARE PARTS, AND TRAINING AS REQUIRED UNDER FMS LOA DB-P-LCL FOR THE COUNTRY OF UKRAINE.”

The Department of Defense transferred $4.75 Million to Atlantic Diving Supply Inc. as of February 3rd, 2023 for "PRO SAPPER AND EOD EQUIPMENT [CONTRACTING SQUADRON] UKRAINE" and "Marine lifesaving and diving equipment.

Explosive Ordinance Disposal (EOD) and Sapper equipment is exclusively used to blow things up or clear up explosives. And Atlantic Diving Supply is a military contractor originally founded to provide tactical gear to Navy Seal divers.

When a company like this is tasked with a highly specific delivery of explosives gear to any foreign nation, including Ukraine, it should prompt questions about the mission, particularly when US Intelligence is blaming Ukraine's Military for attacking the Nordstream pipelines without the knowledge of President Zelensky. (The payment does not necessarily correlate with the date of delivery from the vendor; in other words the equipment could have been provided at an earlier date.)

Luke Hillier, the founder of Atlantic Diving Supply paid a $20 Million dollar settlement in 2019 to resolve charges that he defrauded the Pentagon by falsely claiming his company was a small business. Atlantic Diving is consistently listed as one of the top 25 largest military contractors in the country.

In 2021, Hillier raked in a massive $33 Billion dollar contract under the same program, prompting fresh accusations of fraud. The pattern of malfeasance prompted a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee to bluntly denounce Atlantic Diving as a "fraudulent company."

Hillier currently owns $13 Million dollar Mega-Yacht in the Cayman Islands, $24 Million worth of beachfront property in Hawaii, and two Bahamas-based companies with murky operations, according to the Project on Government Oversight.

This goes on and on and on and on.

I mean, I'm literally out of room to put more of these expenditures into this post, so instead I will just write out some more egregious examples I haven't yet included:

The Department of Defense has paid $4.9 Million to BAE Systems GCS International as of September 12th, 2022 for "UKRAINE LCS LW 155 SPARES" and "Guns over 155mm to 200mm." In Navy terminology, LCS means "Littoral Combat Ship" while "LW" refers to the Lightweight Gun. And "155mm SPARES" refers to the Gun mounted on the ship's main battery off the bow.

USAID sent $3 million to the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2022 “to improve health outcomes in drought affected areas in Ethiopia.” The description stated, “partially funded with response funds and Ukraine Supplemental Funds.”

USAID sent 30.9 million to Chemonics International, Inc. for the “Ukraine confidence building initiative (UCBI) 4. A private, for-profit aid contractor, Chemonics’ founder said he launched the company to “have my own CIA.” The Grayzone has documented Chemonics’ role in delivering US government funding and supplies to the Syrian White Helmets, which served as the propaganda wing of the Al Qaeda-tied armed opposition. Chemonics previously reaped a massive windfall from the US occupation of Afghanistan, raking in as much as $600 million from USAID.

USAID sent $20.7 million to PACT, INC. for “USAID Ukraine’s public health system recovery and resilience activity and will strengthen the Government of Ukraine (GOU) capacity to address COVID-19 and other public health threats, sustain health services during a crisis, and protect the health of all Ukrainians including vulnerable and marginalized populations. According to its 2022 impact statement [PDF], “In Ukraine, Pact’s work empowers citizens to push for transparent and democratic governance, advances gender equality and human rights for women and girls, and accelerates efforts to achieve HIV epidemic control.” The contractor’s work contributed to “172 people increas[ing] their net income,” according to Pact.

USAID sent 7.6 million to UNICEF IDA for emergency nutrition response in ASALs (Arid and Semi-Arid Lands) in Kenya. The description stated, “partially funded with response funds and Ukraine Supplemental Funds”

USAID sent $1.2 million to University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. located in Atlanta, GA to “support humanitarian information management through geographic information systems, data analytics and visualizations”. Ukraine was listed as the place of performance.

Washington funnels cash to a private equity firm, Georgian finance corporation, a ‘private entrepreneur’ via Ukraine aid

US International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) sent $25 million to Horizon Capital Growth Fund IV, a “leading private equity firm in emerging Europe, “to back high-growth tech and export-oriented [Small and Medium Sized Enterprises] succeeding globally, based on platforms in Ukraine and Moldova.”

US International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) sent $1.5 million to the Gazelle Fund LP, another private equity firm, to relocate Ukrainian businesses to Georgia. Georgia does not border Ukraine, nor is it a primary location for Ukrainian refugee resettlement.

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) sent $882'291 to a single individual described as an “private entrepreneur” in exchange for “overseas technical assistance program support services.” The private entrepreneur listed, Igor Lavreniuk, serves as the Program Coordinator for USAID’s Competitive Markets Program according to his LinkedIn.

The National Science Foundation sent 1.3 million to University of Illinois for faculty and curricular development in remote sensing. The place of performance is listed as Ukraine.

The Department of State has paid 8.3 million to Catholic Relief Services (CRS) to help “refugees from Ukraine meet their essential needs during initial displacement.” According to SpendingUS.gov, Catholic Relief Services is listed as having received a total of 657 million from the State Department in 2021, 5.7 billion since 2008 and 670 million during the last 12 months.

As the war drags on, lawmakers like Sen. Lindsey Graham have marketed military aid to Ukraine in increasingly grim terms. As the senator boasted during a recent trip to Kiev, “The Russians are dying…it’s the best money we’ve ever spent.” Meanwhile, Congress has rejected any mechanism that would guarantee transparency on the billions sent to Kiev, and shunned a war powers debate over the US military’s presence on the Ukrainian battlefield.

President Joseph Biden, for his part, has pledged that official Washington will support Kiev “as long as it takes.” As the potential for blowback grows from Western pressure to push Ukraine into NATO, and a nuclear-armed Moscow is backed into an existential fight for its survival, while economic powers including China gradually decouple from the Western financial system, Americans can only wonder how much will this war cost them when it is finally over.

Of course this is nowhere near a full accounting of Washington's Proxy-war in Ukraine which is surely costing in the hundreds of Billions by now between the direct financial aid listed above, to weapons systems and ammunition deliveries, to the training of Kiev's Forces taking place in secret locations across Europe and the US.

And for all we can see, our Country's oligarchs and politicians seem satisfied to continue on the gravy train until they can no longer suck one more penny of wealth out of US public coffers.

Decode Your Future: Choose a Career in Medical Coding!

  Medical coding is a standardized system that enables healthcare practitioners to communicate about the medical services they provide to insurance companies and government agencies. Medical coding utilizes a variety of classification schemes, such as the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) and the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT). Medical coders must remain current with these updates to ensure accuracy and compliance as these codes are frequently updated to reflect changes in healthcare practices. The process of transforming medical diagnoses, treatments, and services into standardized codes is known as medical coding. These codes are used to precisely identify and record patient conditions, follow medical treatments and their results, and make it easier for healthcare workers to bill and get paid.

                        Medical coding is crucial for several reasons. First, it helps healthcare providers to accurately document patient care and track outcomes. Second, it allows for consistency and accuracy in medical records, which is important for research and quality assurance. Third, medical coding is necessary for billing and reimbursement purposes, both for insurance providers and government programs like Medicare and Medicaid. For those who want to become certified medical coders, there are numerous certifications accessible. Different organizations give these certifications, and each one has a different set of criteria and concentrations. Some of the most common qualifications are listed below:

Certified Professional Coder (CPC)

Certified Coding Specialist (CCS)

Certified Coding Specialist-Physician-based (CCS-P)

Certified Professional Medical Auditor (CPMA)

Certified Documentation Improvement Practitioner (CDIP)

Certified Risk Adjustment Coder (CRC)

Medical coding is important for a variety of purposes. First, it aids in correctly tracking outcomes and documenting patient care for healthcare professionals. Second, it enables accuracy and consistency in medical records, which is crucial for study and quality control. Thirdly, medical coding is essential for invoicing and reimbursement processes for insurance companies as well as public assistance programs like Medicare and Medicaid. Medical coding uses a number of various coding systems, such as the Current Procedural Terminology(CPT) and the International Classification of Diseases (ICD). To ensure accuracy and compliance, medical coders must remain current with these updates as these codes are frequently updated to reflect changes in healthcare practices.

Andrés Majano ♦ Cis Man (he/him) ♦ Forty ♦ Civilian ♦ Football manager with Arsenal FC

Ruthlessness is a virtue in this game, on the pitch. If the players aren’t willing to embrace that, then they have no business being in my team.

We all have this earliest memory which never leaves our mind. To some, it’s the first day at school, a particularly nice day or, more often, a small fright. Either way, those memories usually date back to the age of 3 to 6 years old.

Andrés didn’t have a memory predating the day he woke up in a hospital. He had been in a coma for months and neither the doctors or the police, despite their best efforts, could figure out how that boy wound up shipped in a box, or where he came from at all. Whoever had put him in there had left absolutely no traces behind them, and soon, he was placed in an orphanage. To the social workers’ surprise, the boy was well spoken, polite and had received an education. He was adopted by a Spanish businessman and his wife, and his life only began then.

He spent the end of his childhood in Málaga, on the southern coast of Spain, learned the language, and displayed an interest for football, a sport he’d played in his former life. If he also had spent countless hours riding horses and fencing, those were hobbies he wasn’t exposed to, and therefore never found himself drawn to. If his father would have preferred his son took over the business, a scout for Málaga CF decided otherwise. By the time he was 15, Andrés would spend more time on the pitch than he did in classrooms, and he debuted his professional career by the time he turned 17.

Soon enough, he shone too bright for his Andalusian club and transferred to Milan and then Turin. But, his goal, like many other players before him, had always been England and the Premiere league, and his dream came true when he wound up playing for Arsenal FC from the age of 23 until the age of 31. Finishing his career with Bayern München, he retired at 34 and dedicated the next couple of years to his new mission. Andrés was a born leader, having often found himself the designated team captain in his teams, and he didn’t want to be one of those football players who ended up forgotten by the time he turned 40.

But life wasn’t only rainbows and butterflies, and even the most successful men had their demons. If he made it a point to keep himself in good shape, and always encouraged his team mates and now his players of doing the same, Andrés wasn’t as strong psychologically speaking. He had his vices : he slept around, a fear of abandonment keeping him from ever trusting anyone enough for longer company, and he found enjoyment in gambling : sometimes, he was successful, some others... not so much. He spends a fortune paying back the Red Rose Casino yet can’t stop himself from going back. Eventually, his generous salary won’t be able to cover all of his expenses and people will start talking.

+ / -  decisive, pragmatic, federator, charming, insecure, secretive, ruthless, severe

Over the course of his career, Andrés has played as a midfielder in many clubs (finishing his career with FC Bayern München) and with the Spanish national team. The highlights of his career will remain a World and European title with Spain (2010 and 2012).

Andrés has a distinctive burn mark on his hand, which dates back from before his adoption. He doesn’t remember where it comes from, and will come up with a different story to explain it each time he’s asked about it.

He bought a house in Kensington, London not too far from Hyde Park, the train station or the Arsenal stadium, but though he owns other places in each place he played, Andrés had to sold already one of them in order to reimburse the Jabberwocks.

Each of his houses has a garden attached to it : Andrés finds solace putting his hands in the dirt and making sure each and every plant gets everything it needs to thrive. His garden is a place sacred to him and one he cherishes more than any other possession. He puts a lot of thought and time into it.

Having lived in Spain and played in Italy, England and Germany, Andrés speaks all four languages with acceptable fluency.

Strategies for Healthcare Talent Retention: Building a Stable Workforce

Healthcare organizations across the globe face a significant challenge in retaining top talent. The healthcare industry is known for its demanding work environments, high levels of stress, and the emotional toll that comes with caring for patients. These factors contribute to high turnover rates, making healthcare talent retention a critical issue. Organizations must adopt effective strategies to keep their employees engaged, satisfied, and committed to their roles.

Why Healthcare Talent Retention Matters

Retaining skilled healthcare professionals is essential for several reasons:

Continuity of Care: High turnover can disrupt patient care, leading to inconsistencies and potential gaps in service. Retaining talent ensures that patients receive continuous and high-quality care from experienced professionals​

Cost Efficiency: The cost of recruiting, hiring, and training new staff is significant. By retaining current employees, healthcare organizations can reduce these costs and allocate resources more effectively​.

Employee Morale: Frequent turnover can negatively impact the morale of remaining staff, leading to burnout and further turnover. A stable workforce fosters a positive work environment, boosting overall employee satisfaction​.

Organizational Reputation: Healthcare organizations known for retaining their staff often have better reputations, which can attract more patients and high-quality candidates in the future​.

Key Strategies for Healthcare Talent Retention

To effectively retain talent in the healthcare sector, organizations should consider implementing the following strategies:

Competitive Compensation and Benefits:

Offering competitive salaries and comprehensive benefits packages is fundamental. Healthcare professionals are more likely to stay with an organization that compensates them fairly for their hard work and dedication.

Consider adding perks such as retirement plans, health insurance, wellness programs, and educational reimbursements. These benefits not only attract talent but also encourage long-term commitment​.

Professional Development Opportunities:

Investing in the continuous professional development of healthcare workers is crucial. Offering opportunities for further education, specialized training, and career advancement helps employees feel valued and supported in their career growth.

Mentorship programs and leadership development initiatives can also play a significant role in retaining top talent by providing clear career pathways within the organization​.

Work-Life Balance:

Promoting work-life balance is essential in a demanding field like healthcare. Flexible scheduling, reasonable workloads, and adequate time off can help reduce burnout and improve job satisfaction.

Implementing policies that allow for remote work (where possible) and job-sharing can also contribute to a better balance, particularly in administrative or support roles.

Employee Engagement and Recognition:

Regularly engaging with employees and recognizing their contributions can significantly impact retention. This includes both formal recognition programs and informal appreciation from management.

Creating a culture of feedback, where employees feel their voices are heard and valued, can lead to higher levels of job satisfaction and loyalty​.

Healthy Work Environment:

Ensuring a safe and supportive work environment is critical for retaining healthcare professionals. This includes providing the necessary resources, maintaining adequate staffing levels, and addressing any workplace issues promptly.

Fostering a culture of respect, collaboration, and inclusivity can also help create a positive work environment that encourages employees to stay.

Leadership and Management:

Strong leadership is key to retaining talent. Leaders who are transparent, supportive, and communicative create an environment where employees feel secure and motivated.

Providing leadership training for managers and supervisors can help them develop the skills needed to effectively manage and retain their teams​.

Conclusion: Building a Sustainable Healthcare Workforce

In the competitive and demanding field of healthcare, talent retention is not just a goal but a necessity. By implementing comprehensive strategies that focus on compensation, professional development, work-life balance, employee engagement, and strong leadership, healthcare organizations can build a stable and committed workforce. Ultimately, this leads to better patient outcomes, a positive organizational culture, and long-term success for the healthcare facility.

This week has destroyed me. I am in bad shape right now. I went to bed at like 7:30 last night. I didn't want to but I couldn't keep my eyes open. I woke up this morning thinking I was late for work but then I remembered that it's Friday.

Yesterday was just too much for me. I was able to keep up with the fast doctor for the most part but I had to do a lot of running. I was happy that he said good morning to me and he actually called me by name. None of the other doctors know my name as far as I know so that was nice.

It is nice to be noticed. A lot of the time I feel like I am just a glorified dishwasher and a nobody. The charge nurses often refer to us as dishwashers and I hate it. They aren't very nice. It's sad how a lot of nurses I work with are like that. They are insensitive and lack empathy and I don't know why a lot of them chose to work in the medical field. I decided not to pursue nursing because of that reason and it can be a tough job. The nurses I worked with at the nursing home and the hospice house were the same way. There is a lot of unnecessary drama. I know that nursing isn't easy but it's not ok to take frustrations out on co-workers and demean others.

I don't think they realize how complicated and important our job actually is. The hospital would not operate without us. It requires a lot of scientific knowledge. I might not have a college degree but I had to get certified and it took me 2 years of on the job training to prepare to take the exam. I worked with a preceptor for 6 months when I started. I have to have over 100 hours of education every 5 years in order to renew my certification. I have had to memorize the names of thousands of instruments and the procedures for processing them. I have to have an understanding of how instruments are used in surgery. I need to know a lot about anatomy. Wrapping instruments and pans is also an art and it took a lot of practice to learn how to do that correctly. I have had to wrap a lot of odd shaped things like alvarado boots and basins and that's a lot more difficult than wrapping a rectangular pan. Now that I specialize in eyes, I have had to learn a lot about that too. There's a reason they don't let new people learn how to do my job. I am frustrated that they won't reimburse me or give me a pay increase for getting a specialty certification for that so I'm not going to bother with that unless they change their mind. I don't know if I will get a raise at all this year.

Anyway, everything went pretty smoothly yesterday but I wish I wouldn't have had so much to do. I only took a 15 minute lunch because I was afraid I wasn't going to get everything done and I didn't want to have to stay late. I peel packed at least 100 instruments in 30 minutes. I was running the entire day until about 4. I sat down in the hallway until 4:30 when the last case got done. I was happy that there was a chair out there to sit on because I couldn't stand anymore. I got everything cleaned up and then I left.

I got home and I got ready for bed right away. I just had a boost for dinner and I know it wasn't enough. I was too weak to stop and get food or make myself anything. I still have food in the fridge luckily. I am going to try to eat more today.

I need to go run a couple errands soon before it gets too hot outside. I don't want to get up but I need my medication. I feel bad because my grandma wanted me to go with her to look at computers today but I don't feel up to it. I told her I would help her a couple weeks ago. I am going to look at them online later today to see if I can find one. I want to be able to set it up for her so she doesn't get a virus on it again or something. She is not very good with computers. She understands that I'm not feeling well.

I am going to get up and get ready now. I would be happy if I started feeling better later. I hope I can make it a good day.

I hope everyone else has a good day too. 💖💖💖
