A Health Parliamentary Inquiry Commission (CPI) in Mato Grosso is investigating potential bidding irregularities within the State Health Secretariat occurring between 2019 and 2025. The inquiry has focused on health sector contracts, payment processes, and medical service documentation. During recent proceedings, the commission questioned four individuals, including representatives from the company MedTrauma and a physician, regarding inconsistencies in medical service documentation and indemnity processes. All witnesses exercised their right to remain silent. The commission retains the authority to pursue further evidence through document requests and the lifting of banking or tax secrecy. Recent developments indicate that the legislative inquiry is specifically investigating potential cartels and irregular payments within the State Health Secretariat. This occurs alongside broader oversight efforts by the Tribunal de Contas de Mato Grosso (TCE-MT), which has maintained a suspension on a hospital hygiene services tender due to technical flaws in the bidding system.
