Privatization of the sanitary management in Madrid

Commentary on the Order of the Superior Court of Justice of Madrid of 11 September 2013

Abstract

The Superior Court of Justice of Madrid provisionally suspended the privatization of health care management from six public hospitals in Madrid following an appeal by an Association of Physicians Specialists in Madrid, understanding first, the entity that appellant does have standing court to intervene actively in the process, and secondly that we are facing a change in the management of the health service as a special dimension to time –population municipalities, personal, etc ...– that would make it very difficult, if not impossible («return to the previous situation» if he finally decides in favor of the appellants). In consequence, the Court agrees to suspend the resolution of the Council of Health of April 30 that was publicizing the conditions of the sheet of bidding of the contest, modified later in the Official Bulletin of the Community of Madrid across a correction of mistakes that diminished in 90 % the economic endorsements that had to present the companies, needing that this modification of the bail, it can exceed the possibility of rectification of material mistakes and it might have limited the beginning of free concurrence.
