Up to 30% of the medical establishments inspected monthly are sanctioned for various irregularities, according to the head of the Metropolitan Regional Unit of the State Commission for the Protection against Sanitary Risks (Coepris).
Carlos Zárate Chávez explained that, on average, 150 inspection visits are carried out per month throughout the state, targeting not only doctors or clinics, but also all types of businesses related to health and wellness.
He emphasized that in order to ensure compliance with health regulations, specifically regulated by the agency, the review and regularization protocols have been constant and, therefore, applicable to the entire medical ecosystem.
Regarding the Reppsabi program, Zárate Chávez emphasized that more and more establishments are showing interest in registering, as it allows them to maintain contact with international health authorities, such as the department of San Diego, California.
This program, he specified, is free, voluntary, and has a preventative focus, so he called on all medical service providers to join in order to strengthen regulatory compliance and guarantee health safety.
