The exclusive published this Monday by ElConstitucional.es, on the day this new newspaper, which fights against disinformation and for the truth – whoever it may bother – kicks off, makes it clear. Ayuso's actions regarding healthcare are not, in any way, that "public-private cooperation" that she and her entire Madrid executive systematically boast about. No. It's business. And that's how both she, the president of the Community of Madrid, and her family, who have largely lived off the healthcare business, see it.

In this context, as we published on ElConstitucional.es, the president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, maintains the registered office of the company Ayuso Lahoz, S.L. in her 90-square-meter property, located in Chamberí - and which appears in the asset declaration submitted by Ayuso herself - whose corporate purpose is "the domestic and foreign trade, operation, distribution of medical equipment apparatus and consumables and supplies".

Thus, as the newspaper I direct has been able to certify, through a report prepared by the consultancy Axesor dated January 10, 2026, the leader of the Madrid Executive retains the **bare ownership** of the registered office of a company with "indications of inactivity" - as the report shows - but with tax obligations and participation by direct family members.

The fact that Díaz Ayuso maintains the company Ayuso Lahoz, S.L. registered at her Chamberí address in 2026 contrasts with the closure - at the end of 2023 - of Sismédica S.L., a limited liability company that, as published by ElPlural.com, was dedicated to the rental of real estate and of which the president of the Community of Madrid owned 50% of the company along with her brother Tomás Díaz Ayuso, who owned the other 50%.

Certainly, to be honest with the truth, the fact that the Madrid leader has the registered office of a company dedicated to the sale of sanitary material at her home does not, in itself, represent an illegal or, consequently, criminal act. But it is evident that it does demonstrate her conception of healthcare. And that is as a business. Which, moreover, she does not hide. She shows it without disguise.

Therefore, the president of the Community of Madrid does not see healthcare as that "public-private cooperation" that she praises so much and that, mind you, I defend. I sincerely believe that the public sector should collaborate with the private sector to improve such a public service. And that is legitimate: the improvement of the public sector by introducing the 'expertise' of the private world. What is not legitimate is to turn the public sector, that of everyone, into a private fiefdom. Into a business. Whose negative results have already been seen, as a recent example, in the public hospital of Torrejón under private management, where the CEO of the managing company - it is heard in an audio - asked the hospital's senior managers to prioritize the most profitable patients to improve the company's economic profits.
