Minister Eddy Olivares lifts suspension of health services for ARS affiliates in Dominican Republic

Dominican Labour Minister Eddy Olivares met with Aura Celeste Fernández, director of the National Social Security Council, and representatives of the Dominican Association of Health Risk Administrators (ADARS), ARS Futuro, ARS Primera and the National Association of Private Clinics (Andeclip). The parties agreed to cancel the previously announced suspension of health services for members of those administrators, allowing patients to continue receiving care at affiliated clinics.

The participants pledged to keep dialogue channels open and scheduled a follow‑up meeting for the next Wednesday to reach a final agreement that safeguards service continuity and addresses outstanding issues.
