Los Mochis, Sinaloa.- To be intervened more quickly by health institutions when it comes to diseases that require urgent care, patients have chosen to bring shelters before a federal judge, Roberto Urías Mascareño reported.” Now a lot of people do, they take care of the lack of attention, because the Constitution marks that the right to health is a human right and institutions must give quality health.”
The legal director in the northern part of the Medical Arbitration Commission of the State of Sinaloa (Cames) stated that therefore when someone is entrusted the judge has to ask for a justifiable report and it is paperwork that he deserves for a long time, which in a way has helped Cames manage patients’ complaints against health institutions more quickly, as nosocomios directors and doctors prefer to negotiate and fix the problem before the case goes to the Public Defender’s Office.

Complaints
Urías Mascareño disclosed that so far this year, Cames has received 12 complaints about poor medical care, negligence and expense compensation or because some patients report that they did not look good from some surgery and feel they need compensation of the health institution.
But we almost always resolve complaints in the efforts,” he said.
He stated that complaints were initially against public institutions and then matched with private health institutions.
It’s been about two or three years since the rate of complaints against the medical institutions of private initiative was high, and right now it’s already matched again.”
He mentioned that 70 percent of complaints are against public health institutions and 30 percent of private initiative hospitals. He stated that public hospitals have the most complaints because they are the ones with the highest workload and the May number of rightholders. However, he stressed that of the 12 complaints, only two against Social Security were pending for the concept of expense remuneration and some of the others were inappropriate and others were reconciled.
