Thousands of patients without dental care (reserve, pay, but never receive). All the hospital wards closed since October 27. More than 250 desperate workers because they have been without pay since September. A plan that could restart everything, rejected by the Pirellone. Mysterious phone calls to regional councilors of associations that “support” solutions. Exposed against Lombardy region and interpellations in the regional council that divide the majority of Attilio fontana. Above all, the ghost of Maria Paola CanegratiLady Sorriso, the woman who, before being sentenced to 12 years in the first degree, had built the empire of private dental centers in public hospitals based on bribes.
«Nobody deigned to answer me, perhaps their majority colleagues will answer. The Lombard Councilor of the 5 Star Movement, Marco Fumagalli, comments on the presentation of an interpellation by the League about the failure of Odos Service Srl. It is the second half of the Odos affair, a company that managed, among others, the Dental Center ofHospital Niguarda in Milan, last branch of the Canegrati empire, holder of millionaire contracts. On October 27, Odos went bankrupt and today all treatment activities have been suspended.
Since then, the insolvency administrator Elisabetta Brugnoni he worked on a plan that would ensure patient visits and workers’ wages. And it had also been possible to find a “safe and solid” company, the Gherò of Bolzano, ready to rent the Odos commercial branch. «As soon as I took office, I contacted the companies that would allow me to reopen the directors, pay salaries, access the Cig for those who did not work. And I found one. For the curator Brugnoni it is to square the circle. However, everything gets stuck, so much as to provoke first the interrogation of Fumagalli about the cinquestelle and today that of the councilor of the Lega, Alessandro corbetta. What are they «The impediments that still prevent ratification of the proposal? ”, Corbetta writes in the interpellation, addressing directly to the councilor for Health of Fontana, Giulio Gallera.
The obstacles explained by the commissioner. To continue with the solution identified, Brugnoni needed the approval of the hospitals region of. «I wrote to them, sure there would be a proforma, and instead… ». But no. The Brugnoni plan is blocked by Pirellone himself, who “raised a series of incomprehensible problems and, despite the urgency on the social level, he never deigned to give an answer,” the commissioner said. “There is no political will to act. But I take them to court and I intend to initiate a damages action against the Region. And while Pirellone was wasting time, all the hospitals, Niguarda at the head, began individual calls to tender the service. A very long procedure, paradoxically motivated by the need to “reassure the patients.” Meanwhile, the centers remain tight. Marco Trivelli, the new health director in Lombardy since June, had explained to Fatto that there were “doubts about the procedure proposed by the commissioner. Legal and substantial in nature, “adding that” companies in general would like to make a new tender immediately, finding provisional management methods in the meantime. “
Some former Odos employees also requested the management of the Niguarda pole; the richest, the newly published expression of interest has a value of 5 million euros for 12 months. Vincenzo Nicotra, previously in charge of the clinic. The same doctor chosen by Lady Sorriso, who was also accused of professional incompetence by the former head of the hospital. But above all, a name known to the commissioner, having been an advisor to the prosecutor in the Canegrati trial. For Brugnoni Nicotra it was not an option. So the doctor wrote to all health departments, foreshadowing a “bad gesture” from the curator. Which reacted with a complaint to the Judiciary (“and I hope they investigate,” he says).
But that is not all. The last chapter is told directly by regional councilor M5s Fumagalli, who presented his question on Odos on October 28 after the bankruptcy: «After submitting the interpellation, I received a phone call from a strange person, never seen or heard before, who was pushing for the solution “proposed by Nicotra”. And frankly, if on the one hand there is Nicotra, and on the other a plan approved by the court, my choice is clear. On the other end of the phone Marghereta Florea (pictured with Gallera), Berlusconian veteran, owner of the company Sano Life Medical and president of the association “We are the beauty that advances“Among the founding members, numerous important names from Niguarda, including that of Trivelli himself. All finished material in another exhibition presented by Fumagalli.
