The president of the National Association of Private Clinics (Andeclip), Rafael Mena used a Dominican saying to relay the idea that he was caught in between two forces, after the association approved a 14% increase in the cost of services at private clinics. Diario Libre said that the increase has kept the representatives of the Health Risk Administrators of the National Health Insurance (Senasa) and Andeclip at loggerheads with mutual denials of service, is what is being called "a war of interests" where the patients are the losers.

Yesterday, the representative of several owners of private clinics, Rafael Mena, sent a letter to the Superintendent of Labor Health and Risks, Fernando Caamano, in which he requests his mediation in the conflict. Immediately, Caamano accepted the request and announced that he would begin a conciliation process between ARS Senasa and the clinics that have applied the increase unilaterally. He said that he would convene the clinics represented by Andeclip, some 122, and Senasa in order to start the conciliation process, which he expects to end in a harmonious and fruitful solution for the benefit of the affiliates of the system. Mena said that what happens between Andeclip and Senasa is a "hidden war" that he expects to resolve by the end of the week through negotiations.
