Overview
- Decree 599/2025, published in the Boletín Oficial, removed ANDIS head Diego Spagnuolo and placed the agency under intervention.
- Alejandro Alberto Vilches, a Health Ministry official with experience in public and private health management, was appointed to lead the intervention.
- Presidential spokesman Manuel Adorni said Vilches will conduct a deep internal audit and revalidate disability pensions to tighten controls.
- A judicial investigation was opened, reported to be led by prosecutor Franco Picardi, while officials stressed the audios’ authenticity remains unconfirmed and should be assessed by the courts.
- Reports on the leaked audios reference Droguería Suizo Argentina as an alleged intermediary, and the episode drew political heat as Deputies voted to reject the presidential veto on a disability emergency law.
