Independiente de Avellaneda is experiencing a delicate moment in all aspects of its institutional life. While the team has a weak sporting level, which is why Leandro Stilletano stopped being their coach, on the economic level the issue is very uphill.

A few days ago, the club received a very big judicial setback, since it will have to pay a millionaire sum of 2,300 million pesos to Gonzalo Verón, a former striker of the institution. This Thursday, through its social networks, the Avellaneda entity reported that it initiated criminal and civil lawsuits once morest the previous board of directors headed by Hugo Moyano.

The main ones targeted by the current Independiente board of directors, headed by Fabián Doman, are the Truckers unionist and Héctor “Yoyo” Maldonado, who was the secretary of “Red” during Moyano’s administration.

The complaint is for “irregularities found in the judicial files of Gonzalo Verón, the unpaid sponsorship of OCA and the sale of the economic rights of Jorge Nicolás Figal (today in Boca) to the MLS,” the statement said.

Regarding the Verón case, Independiente indicated that it will appeal the sentence that requires such high compensation for the player. In addition, there will be a civil lawsuit once morest the aforementioned Moyano and Maldonado with the aim of “recovering the money not received for the use of the institution’s image through clothing sponsorship.”

Daily costs of $429 to stay in the hospital while waiting for a place in a CHSLD

Quebecers have to pay $429 a day to stay in hospital while waiting for a place in a CHSLD; however, in Estrie alone, more than 2,000 patients had to pay for this service in order to avoid being uprooted and sent away from their loved ones.

The opposition parties also strongly denounced this practice on Wednesday in the National Assembly.

Leah Fournier and her daughter Victoria are very close. The 86-year-old lady lived in a residence for semi-autonomous people in Cowansville until a nasty fall brought her to the hospital. When she was discharged, her condition prevented her from returning to her residence and she was offered a transitional place at the CHSLD in Granby.

“I had suggested four CHLSDs closer to my home to be able to visit it regularly, but Granby is too far,” said Victoria Della Porta.

Faced with this refusal, the hospital asked Mr.me Della Porta to sign a document which stipulates that each day spent at the hospital center, once you have your transitional place, will be billed as an uninsured service at a cost of $429. “I said no because it’s not proper, it’s not humane to send my mother away. And there you are threatened to pay that amount.”

Victoria Della Porta stood tall and didn’t sign, but thousands do. Over the past 3 years in Estrie, 2,152 patients have paid fees of $429 per day, for a total of approximately $4 million.

“It’s an excessive amount,” commented Liberal André Fortin.

“Some commentators say it’s scandalous, I think the word is not too weak,” added Parti Québécois MP Joël Arsenault.

“Things are not going well in the network at the moment” said for his part the solidarity Vincent Marissal.

The director of specialized geriatric services at the CIUSSS de l’Estrie-CHUS, Danika Manseau, explained that the establishment limits travel to 70 kilometers and that the law authorizes this practice to free up hospital beds: “We are sensitive to what these families are going through, but we have to make sure that all our precious beds are occupied in the most efficient way possible.

The council for the protection of the sick is rather of the opinion that the right of the patient to choose his establishment must prevail. He invites the families affected to sue the CIUSSS for small claims to be reimbursed.
