VALENCIA, Spain, the PSPV says it will report Valencian Health Minister Marciano Gómez after a dispute in Les Corts over annual data on private healthcare contracts and referrals.
The party says the issue matters for patients and taxpayers in the Valencian Community because it concerns how public health money is spent, and whether lawmakers receive the figures they asked for. According to the PSPV, the minister has not provided the information in the annual format requested, which the party says limits scrutiny of spending.
What the PSPV says was requested
According to PSPV health spokesperson Yaissel Sánchez, the request covered outsourcing figures for 2024, 2025 and 2026. She says the minister instead gave global figures for two-year periods, and five-year data for the share of private spending in total health department expenditure, covering 2022 to 2026.
Sánchez also says the information lacked detail on outsourced services or concepts, as well as the cost per specialism and privatised health service. She says she had already filed a complaint after the minister refused to provide the cost of referrals to private healthcare companies in 2024 and 2025, citing complexity. The PSPV is the Socialist Party in the Valencian Community.
Why the dispute matters locally
For residents, the practical issue is whether the Generalitat is giving clear annual figures on how much public health work is being sent to private providers. That affects scrutiny of spending, service planning and the debate over the health model in the Valencian Community, especially for patients who use public hospitals and referral services.
After that complaint, Sánchez says Gómez sent more information to Les Corts, but it was again grouped into a two-year period, this time 2024 to 2025. She described the approach as “extravagant” and “ridiculous”, and said it was an attempt to hide public money going into private healthcare.
What happens next
Sánchez also said it was “improper” for Gómez to provide “biased, manipulated, or partial data” rather than the information requested by parliament. She added that the PSPV would use “all necessary legal avenues” to obtain the data it says is being denied. Readers following the case can track updates through the news page and the Les Corts and Generalitat channels if the party files the complaint formally.
