The new administration of the Social Security Fund (CSS) is conducting a thorough review of the budget previously prepared and approved by the previous management and the Board of Directors in place at that time. According to a statement from the entity, the objective of this analysis is to identify and correct inconsistencies in the total amount of the budget and in the approval process.
The statement highlights that the current budget presents a high and unjustifiable amount, validated only by the previous Board of Directors and that it was not submitted to the review of the Ministry of Economy and Finance. In that sense, the new administration of the CSS reaffirms its commitment to transparency and the efficient use of the institution's resources, prioritizing the well-being of the insured.
In the words of the new administration, they are dedicated to ensuring the provision of the highest quality care to CSS users, complying with the presidential mandate to adopt a more conservative approach to the budget. They emphasize that they work tirelessly to serve the insured, as their well-being is their main goal.
Amidst these actions, the CSS reiterates that the previous board of directors approved a budget for the institution that is deemed disproportionate and lacking due justification, committing to rectify this situation in favor of more transparent and efficient management of resources.
The review and amendment of the budget are crucial steps in the pathway towards responsible management focused on the real needs of the beneficiaries of the Social Security Fund, reflecting the new leadership's commitment to ensure quality and sustainable care over time.
