Overview
- ISSSTE chief Martí Batres said negotiations continue to acquire the Hospital General de la CDMX in Tláhuac, but operator Sacyr has resisted selling.
- The institute currently pays 137 million pesos each month to the private operator under the existing arrangement.
- The contract spans 23 years and was originally valued at 21,475 million pesos, according to Batres.
- Officials estimate that letting the deal run to term would exceed 37 billion pesos, which they say could finance about 10 regional hospitals.
- ISSSTE says its board has approved the funds for an early purchase, noting that APP-run hospitals in Tepic, Villahermosa and Mérida were acquired in 2024.
