Oscar Sagas the nephrologist, organ procurer, who had been appointed to head the military social work, IOSFAslammed the door. He gradually renounced “the function with which he opportunely honored me,” as he says in the note he sent to the Minister of Defense, Luis Petri.
Two sheets of raw laments from someone who could not handle the position and leaves a social work with a financial situation projected to be on the verge of bankruptcy.
The Board of Directors, the highest body that represents and protects the interests of the members, made up of military and security personnel retired from service, issued an official note on October 16 alerting the heads of the Armed Forces and the president of IOSFAnow resigned, about the delicate benefit, budgetary and financial situation and the need to take urgent measures in the face of a possible debt crisis that paralyzes the organization.
“The estimated projection for the end of the current financial year It is estimated at an amount greater than $122,500,000,000”, reflected in the core paragraph of the report prepared by the Board of Directors.
“The Board of Directors became aware of the compromised situation of the Institute, which poses a projection towards the end of the year of an unpaid debt greater than three monthly collections. The situation raised will complicate access to medical and social benefits for our members,” the directors warned.
Translated into simple language, the projected financial situation with a debt of 122 billion in December is unpayable with the collection of 40 billion monthly that are obtained from the membership fee of the affiliates. They also urged the resigned president to “take measures to contain spending and develop a Contingency Plan to face the current situation.”
That was the trigger that motivated the departure of Sagas that He will be replaced by another Mendoza native, Roberto Fiocchiwho left his position as president in the Financial Aid Institute for the Payment of Military Retirements and Pensions (IAF)pension entity for the uniformed.
In the explanatory text, Sagás blames the military leadership and the security forces for having hindered his work. “Convinced that IOSFA needs profound reforms, I have been able to verify that the mentality of the Armed Forces and Security authorities that we serve is not willing to accept that such transformations are led by someone who does not belong to the military sphere.” ”he says in his resignation.
Maybe you’re right. It was a widespread feeling among all military and security members that with the arrival of Javier Milei The benefit to the “caste” of appointing a politician as president of IOSFA ended.
It didn’t happen. Cristina Kirchner’s DNU 637/13 creating IOSFA remains in force where the party in power in the government reserves for itself the power to appoint the president of social work and with him militancy for key management-level positions and others of labor favoritism.
Later, Sagás releases accusatory ballast: “I noticed that in various areas of the Institute there were situations bordering on criminality, which motivated the initiation of numerous administrative summaries and, therefore, the filing of criminal complaints.”
“You must keep in mind, Mr. Minister, that the imprint of my management, in which we were not going to allow acts of corruption, no matter how minimal, generated press operations from the affected sectors, whose intention was to wear down the management and indirectly its management from the beginning.”
The strongest resistance from affiliates on social networks occurred when Sagás’ initiative to outsource medical services to the provider Medifé was announced. A pilot plan – with a confidentiality agreement that was never signed – was developed to Cordova and other provinces of the NEA, meant resigning and giving up the capabilities of IOSFA to the prepaid Medifé.
“Another no less minor issue that generated difficulties was the delay in the appointment of the Vocal Directors, a situation that prevented the making of more complex decisions,” Sagás continues in his defense.
“With my departure I contribute to dissipating tensions with some sectors of the Forces that cannot understand the historical moment that the Country is going through, do not appreciate the winds of freedom that blow in our Nation and are still doubtful of the enormous transformation and modernization that is taking place. carrying out the President Javier Milei”.
Final paragraph that attempts to open a political gap between the Pink House and the military front that is not perceived that way judging by the election result favorable to LLA in districts where the largest military bases in the country are located.
