message of firmness
Faced with the extent of the fraud, social security has canceled all 13 health centers for a period of five years. “We want to send a strong signal. We have already disapproved of health centers, (…) [mais] it’s true that it’s the first time we’ve done it on an entire network. We want to reaffirm the desire to put an end to these fraudulent practices. Health insurance is there to take care of patients, not to finance fraudulent practices., comments Thomas Fatôme, Director General of Health Insurance. The deconvention will be effective from August 21.
