Argentine National Secretary of Disability leadership change

Overview

In late September 2026, Argentina’s newly appointed National Secretary of Disability, Pablo Di Liscia, was hospitalized in Buenos Aires following a serious motorcycle accident. Di Liscia sustained multiple fractures to his ribs, clavicle, and scapula, requiring precautionary intubation, though officials stated his life was not at risk.

Following Di Liscia’s departure from the role due to the accident, the Argentine government appointed Diego Masaragian as the new National Secretary of Disability. Masaragian, who previously served as the National Administrator of Health Establishments (ANES) managing major facilities such as Hospital Posadas and Hospital Laura Bonaparte, assumed the position following a brief interim period led by Rodrigo Sbarra, the Secretary of Administrative Management at the Ministry of Health.

Masaragian’s mandate, as communicated by the Ministry of Health, is to “guarantee management continuity and deepen the optimization process initiated in the area.” His administration intends to focus on strengthening internal control mechanisms, continuing administrative audits to ensure efficient resource management, and improving access to essential benefits for people with disabilities.
