Clinton family foundation had not donated to hospital before Hillary's stay

Hillary Clinton kicked $125,000 in donations from her family foundation to a hospital after receiving treatment for a blood clot in 2013, the Washington Free Beacon has discovered.
Clinton was discharged from New York Presbyterian Hospital in January 2013 after being treated for a blood clot. Doctors discovered the clot during follow-up treatment for a concussion she sustained weeks earlier after she passed out from dehydration, causing her to fall and hit her head.
The New York Times wrote in January 2013:
Hillary Rodham Clinton, whose globe-trotting tour as secretary of state was abruptly halted last month by a series of health problems, was discharged from a New York hospital on Wednesday evening after several days of treatment for a blood clot in a vein in her head….
…“Her medical team advised her that she is making good progress on all fronts, and they are confident she will make a full recovery,” Philippe Reines, a senior adviser to Mrs. Clinton, said in a statement.
Mrs. Clinton, 65, was admitted to NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia hospital on Sunday after a scan discovered the blood clot. The scan was part of her follow-up care for a concussion she sustained more than two weeks earlier, when she fainted and fell, striking her head. According to the State Department, the fainting was caused by dehydration, brought on by a stomach virus. The concussion was diagnosed on Dec. 13, though the fall had occurred earlier that week.

God works in strange ways.
This doesn’t bother me at all. If I had my own foundation, I would give money to people the helped me out.
Of course, these two are criminals. So I dislike everything they do.
HPPA penalties are pretty harsh.
When I see someone in the hospital that I know, I am it allowed to approach them. If they see me and start talking, I cannot ask why they are at the hospital.
As a former medical transcriptionist (25-plus years), I have a few problems with these documents. First, the “letterhead” is atrocious, and the report has multiple errors. There are plenty of mediocre transcriptionists, which can explain the poor quality of the documentation, but I’ve never seen a report that uses the SSN as an identifier.
Lastly, I’m surprised that Hillary didn’t use an alias. When I worked at Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale, I actually transcribed physical exams for George H. W. Bush and Barbara, who both were registered under fake names. The only reason I knew it was them was because I recognized the name Barbara Pierce, and as I transcribed the dictation it was confirmed for me.
Somehow, I doubt Queen Hillary would allow it any other way.

10% (or maybe 7.5%) of adjusted gross income

is that this is effectively getting a tax deduction
