A group of doctors from a hospital in the Italian city of Florence has been caught filling waiting lists with false appointments for work less during the summer.
Son 10 resident doctors of the Careggi hospital in Florence reported for the crime of interruption of public service, which can lead to sentences of between one and five years in prison.
The investigation, carried out by the Carabineros (militarized police), has shown that between July and August 2023 these doctors joined forces to record numerous summonses and examinations for the same patient without the patient’s knowledge.
This made it impossible for other people to make an appointment on those days, since the online portal where reservations were made were already full.
This method allowed doctors “an easier work day” in the months of July and August, saving at least 290 appointmentsaccording to police officers.
The Florence Prosecutor’s Office has denounced them and His trial will begin on February 19.
