Controversy Erupts Over $1.4 Million Health Fund in Puerto Rico

Carlos Díaz, president of the CMCPR, is set to address the controversy surrounding Dr. Víctor Ramos Otero at a press conference, amid allegations about $1.4 million donated for a health insurance plan. Ramos has denied responsibility for the disappearance of these funds, which were contributed by doctors to establish a health insurance plan during his presidency at CMCPR. Díaz is expected to present documentation to clarify the situation, claiming ignorance of how the funds were used. However, former treasurer Roberto Pérez contradicts this, stating that the funds were utilized for necessary expenses to develop the health plan. The backdrop of this controversy includes political tensions as Rep. Jorge Navarro Suárez defends Ramos against what he views as a politically motivated attack from the Popular Democratic Party.
