Surgeon Luis Alberto Martos confirmed to the management of the Ramón y Cajal Hospital in Madrid on Friday that he provided information to the newspaper 'El País' regarding the alleged manipulation of waiting lists and authorized its publication.

Simultaneously, the Spanish Ministry of Health is finalizing a royal decree designed to standardize how waiting lists are measured across the country and prevent the use of parallel registries or the alteration of data. The new regulation establishes that the waiting time begins on the date of the medical indication for a consultation.
