The legislation regarding wellness centers has serious gaps and limited authorities, posing a risk to citizens' safety. The Ombudsman warned about the need to ensure the safe provision of services, stating that oversight is fragmented among various agencies. Despite inspections, there is no proper legal framework for clinics, limiting intervention opportunities. The Ministry of Health emphasized that treatments should be conducted in hospitals and taken appropriate action. Responsibilities are distributed without comprehensive oversight, causing insecurity.
