In addition to the University Hospital of Gran Canaria.
With this third extension, the continuity of the hemodialysis service is guaranteed to patients referred by both hospitals, for a period of two years, between the months of September 2023 and 2025.
The public service management contract, in the form of a concession, was awarded in May 2014 to the company Avericum, SL, and formalized in September of that same year. Subsequently, it was extended in September 2019 and June 2021 for periods of two years.
