Waldo Ariel Suero, the president of the Dominican Medical Association (CMD), was indignant as he rejected proposals made by President Leonel Fernandez, aimed at improving the situation of doctors who work in public hospitals, clinics and social security facilities. The government was proposing that each doctor should work at just one medical facility but earning a better salary. Dr. Suero said that the government intended to begin firing doctors who work at more than one public facility, and that this is a major concern for the CMD. Without mentioning names, Dr. Suero said that the government's Movement to Integrate the Health Sector (MISESA) was aimed at dividing the CMD through special deals and other perks for former CMD leaders. Dr. Suero added that the CMD was going to fight to get retired doctors a living pension of at least RD$30,000.
