Article content Article content On Tuesday, Brooke posted a screenshot of an article by radio personality Bubba the Love Sponge with the headline 'Quick cremation without autopsy raises questions about Hulk Hogan's death,' under which Brooke wrote 'Thank you.' Article content Hulk Hogan, real name Terry Bollea, died on July 24 at age 71 from an acute myocardial infarction — otherwise known as a heart attack — as per the Pinellas County Forensic Science Center. Article content Per the records, the pro wrestling icon also had a history of leukemia CLL, a type of cancer that affects white blood cells called lymphocytes — which had not previously been reported. Article content Brooke appeared live on Bubba's Twitch stream on Tuesday, calling in to share some theories about her father's death. Article content 'I do think it's weird that no autopsy was performed,' Brooke Hogan said. Article content 'Because yes you can have a heart attack, but what was the reason for the heart attack? If he was up and doing breathing exercises, then that means the surgery on his heart was a success and it was working.' Article content Brooke, who had been estranged from her father, added that she felt 'the leukemia out of nowhere hits me as BS,' insisting she never knew of that diagnosis. Article content 'I would be surprised if a surgeon would work on someone with leukemia or a high blood cell count and not do further investigations,' she said. 'I told my dad 'put cameras in your house because one of these bastards could push you down the stairs and nobody would ever know.'' Article content Bubba, whose real name is Todd Clem, also alleged that Hogan's body has already been cremated and that somebody could have injected something into his dialysis port while he slept to induce a heart attack. Article content The medical examiner's report stated that Hogan had just returned home from surgery and was 'currently waiting to start dialysis,' while Clem claims nobody knew he was due to begin dialysis. Article content Article content View this post on Instagram A post shared by Brooke Oleksy (@mizzhogan) Article content Reports say that the Pinellas County Medical Examiner did not perform an autopsy on Hogan because his death was not deemed to be suspicious.

'(Sky is) nice and she's cool (at the beginning), and, you know, I don't really want to go into too much detail about our conversations, but he was saying, you know, 'She's pushing the marriage thing real hard.' Article content 'And I said, 'Well, dad, you don't have to do what you don't have to do, you know.' Blame it on me.' Article content Brooke also claimed that the former wrestler – who reportedly has an estate in worth more than $40 million US — was worried about potentially ending things with Sky, alleging that he said: ''Well, if I broke up with her, it'd be really bad.' And I said 'What do you mean?' And he goes, 'I don't want to get into it,' Article content 'That was the first thing where I was like what the hell? Why would he say that?' Article content

Professional Services Automation Helps Healthcare Leaders Digitize Admin Workflows with IBN Technologies
"Professional Services Automation [USA]" Hospitals and clinics are integrating professional services automation to manage revenue and claims at scale. AI and automation reduce administrative overload, improve accuracy, and support reliable data tracking. With support from experts like IBN Technologies, healthcare teams transition to digital frameworks that adapt to modern care delivery demands. Miami, Florida, 05 Aug 2025 U.S. healthcare networks are moving toward digital-first infrastructure to streamline back-end finance processes. Many provider groups are prioritizing administrative modernization to gain faster visibility into financial metrics and optimize resource use. Central to this effort is professional services automation, which enables structured workflows for billing cycles, insurance coordination, and receivables management. By deploying automated financial services, hospitals are enhancing the consistency and accuracy of financial data without adding to operational load. These improvements offer measurable benefits in cash flow handling and administrative compliance. Supporting this evolution, industry leaders such as IBN Technologies are offering tailored automation models that align with the specific demands of hospital accounting ecosystems. Replace delays with consistent, automated processing Healthcare Billing Under Pressure The economic impact of inflation is reshaping healthcare administration in the U.S. With labor and supply costs accelerating, providers managing finances manually are feeling the squeeze. Unstructured billing methods are making revenue operations harder to control. ▪ Delays in claim cycle completion ▪ Errors in manual billing documentation ▪ Workflow inefficiencies in multi-insurer processing ▪ Stress from constant workload repetition ▪ Gaps in receivable tracking systems ▪ Difficulties preparing clean audit trails ▪ Reduced turnaround on financial reporting ▪ Increased complexity in regulatory alignment To address these inefficiencies, healthcare providers are implementing automation-backed strategies guided by financial process experts. These systems are helping stabilize internal functions without overburdening administrative teams. Through professional automation services, hospitals are able to move toward predictable revenue operations and smoother cash cycle transitions. Automation Advances Patient Billing Healthcare finance departments are adapting fast to meet rising demands. With increasing patient throughput and tighter reimbursement structures, many hospital groups are opting for digital expertise to manage billing, verification, and reconciliation more effectively. ✅ Multi-carrier billing supported by intelligent submission workflows ✅ Fully integrated revenue cycle platforms for oversight and reporting ✅ Automated insurance checks with seamless pre-authorization tracking ✅ Charge posting synced with clinical systems and records integration ✅ Real-time dashboards for transparent collections and reconciliation ✅ Denial resolution tools calibrated for dynamic health systems ✅ Eligibility verification tools offering precise co-pay projections ✅ AR task flows organized by risk-based automation algorithms ✅ HIPAA-secure document systems built for audit-readiness ✅ Financial admin processes automated within healthcare scheduling flows Finance leaders are seeing stronger outcomes when automation strategies are paired with industry-specific insight. Supported by IBN Technologies, hospitals implementing professional services automation in Pennsylvania are improving cost control, processing speed, and operational clarity. Pennsylvania Hospitals See Automation Gains A leading healthcare network in Pennsylvania modernized its finance systems through smart automation backed by trusted solution providers. The transformation enabled faster transaction handling, reduced staff workloads, and broader visibility into billing performance. Average order entry dropped from 7 minutes to 2 minutes Billing inaccuracy declined, strengthening payment integrity 80%+ of financial processes now run without manual intervention System-wide accountability frameworks ensure total visibility This progress reflects how hospitals across Pennsylvania are improving financial efficiency through intelligent automation practices. With professional services automation in place, providers are creating more sustainable models that reduce friction in revenue operations and elevate compliance precision. Smart Automation Reshapes Healthcare Hospitals and care networks in the U.S. are investing in infrastructure that moves beyond traditional administrative models. Many are reengineering internal systems to support rising service demand, shifting reimbursement policies, and the need for accurate, real-time data. Automation is taking the lead as finance teams look for ways to reduce burden, accelerate processing, and ensure complete visibility. The integration of AI and automation into these environments has become a defining step in how providers modernize their operations. With the support of professional services automation, healthcare organizations are now standardizing workflows across billing, collections, and insurance processing. This shift allows for faster reconciliation, clearer audit trails, and measurable improvements in accuracy.
