Destapan la red familiar que desfalcó el Oncológico de Santiago

The Public Prosecutor's Office has formally requested pretrial detention for Héctor Lora, former president of the Cibao Cancer Foundation, his wife, and his ex-wife, exposing an outrageous network of nepotism and administrative corruption at the Cibao Regional Cancer Institute. The case file reveals that Lora operated the health center as a family fiefdom, simultaneously serving as president and treasurer, while awarding himself an exorbitant monthly payment of 600,000 pesos for "representation expenses," which was illicitly doubled in December. The investigation, dubbed "SeNaSa 2.0," delves into the modus operandi of the criminal network, revealing that billings were inflated by charging cancer patients for unnecessary and expensive medical tests, effectively draining state funds. We analyze the mass layoffs of experienced doctors, the embargo that paralyzed the center's accounts, and how the scandal also implicated the Dominican Medical Association (CMD) with a 60 million peso embezzlement in its social assistance body, forcing an emergency audit by the Ministry of Public Health.
