Additional infrastructure improvements include a 21 million peso rehabilitation project for the Dr. Valentín Gómez Farías Specialty Hospital in Coatzacoalcos, which will feature a new burn unit and a magnetic resonator. To support these facilities, the state is expanding the implementation of the SACIA digital inventory system across 22 health centers to prevent medicine expiration and address shortages. Efforts are also focused on securing specialized staffing and essential services, such as neonatology and blood transfusions, for newly inaugurated facilities.
