At the beginning of January 2022, the signing of the agreement was carried out to launch the Program "Universal Coverage for children and adolescents" which seeks to provide comprehensive care to minors and young people who suffer from any type of cancer at no cost in their total treatment.
Este programa impulsado por la Secretaría de Salud en el Estado es un precedente en el país, y se soporta y gestiona con apoyo de nuestra institución, habilitando así el séptimo piso de la Torre de Alta Especialidad y Medicina Avanzada del Hospital Universitario “Dr. José Eleuterio González” para la atención de los pacientes.
