Documents that prove Madrid manipulated the waiting list at Ramón y Cajal: "Avoid listing them as preferential"
La consejera de Sanidad ha acusado al cirujano Luis Alberto Martos de alterar la prioridad de los pacientes en lista de espera, pero las pruebas que mostró a EL PAÍS apuntan a dos superiores
The Madrid Community government has accused a surgeon of manipulating waiting lists at Ramón y Cajal hospital. The surgeon, a hospital employee, allegedly altered the severity of 57 patients' cases to reduce their own workload and operate on less complex cases. According to Health Councillor Fátima Matute, the hospital's management detected the irregularity and issued a written warning to the surgeon. The surgeon's claims of manipulation were initially backed by three other specialists.
