El gobernador de Texas, Greg Abbott, ha ampliado su campa\u00f1a contra el turismo de maternidad en Texas mediante un decreto ejecutivo de \u00e1mbito estatal, tras ordenar que se<\/a> llevaran<\/a> a<\/a> cabo<\/a> investigaciones sobre el Mission Regional Medical Center, en Mission,<\/a> y el Knapp Medical Center, en Weslaco, a ra\u00edz de las acusaciones de que estos hospitales promocionaban servicios de maternidad entre ciudadanas extranjeras que deseaban dar a luz en Estados Unidos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Las investigaciones tienen su origen en una campa\u00f1a de marketing internacional m\u00e1s amplia que tambi\u00e9n promocionaba los servicios de maternidad del Harlingen Medical Center, seg\u00fan las versiones archivadas de la p\u00e1gina web \u00abHave My Baby in Texas\u00bb revisadas por el Rio Grande Valley Business Journal<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n

\"Greg
Greg Abbott<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

La nueva orden de Abbott ampl\u00eda ahora la respuesta del estado m\u00e1s all\u00e1 del Valle del R\u00edo Grande, al ordenar a varias agencias estatales que investiguen las pr\u00e1cticas de turismo de maternidad en todo el sector sanitario de Texas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abTexas no tolerar\u00e1 que se abuse de nuestras leyes de inmigraci\u00f3n por parte de personas que viajan a Estados Unidos de forma ilegal o bajo falsos pretextos para dar a luz y garantizar la ciudadan\u00eda a sus hijos\u00bb, declar\u00f3 Abbott el mi\u00e9rcoles en un comunicado en el que anunciaba la orden. \u00abLa ciudadan\u00eda estadounidense no est\u00e1 en venta, y Texas pondr\u00e1 fin a las pr\u00e1cticas de quienes pretenden lucrarse con el turismo de maternidad\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El decreto ejecutivo ordena a la Comisi\u00f3n de Salud y Servicios Sociales de Texas, a la Oficina del Inspector General de Salud y Servicios Sociales de Texas, al Colegio de M\u00e9dicos de Texas, al Colegio de Enfermer\u00eda de Texas y al Departamento de Licencias y Regulaci\u00f3n de Texas que investiguen las pr\u00e1cticas de turismo de maternidad en el sector sanitario de Texas y que tomen medidas coercitivas contra los proveedores autorizados que anuncien, faciliten o participen de cualquier otra forma en dicha pr\u00e1ctica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Se ordena a las agencias que tomen medidas contra las personas o entidades autorizadas que anuncien, soliciten, practiquen, colaboren, presten servicios o participen de cualquier otra forma en el turismo de maternidad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Entre las posibles sanciones se incluyen la revocaci\u00f3n o suspensi\u00f3n de licencias, la prohibici\u00f3n de participar en contratos p\u00fablicos, la denegaci\u00f3n de prestaciones estatales o la adopci\u00f3n de otras medidas coercitivas autorizadas por la legislaci\u00f3n estatal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La orden tambi\u00e9n autoriza a los organismos, con la aprobaci\u00f3n del gobernador, a coordinarse con los fiscales federales mediante el intercambio de informaci\u00f3n, la remisi\u00f3n de posibles infracciones de la legislaci\u00f3n federal y la colaboraci\u00f3n en las investigaciones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El 7 de julio, Abbott orden\u00f3 por primera vez a la Comisi\u00f3n de Salud y Servicios Sociales de Texas que investigara el Mission Regional Medical Center tras conocerse que el hospital anunciaba \u00abpaquetes de parto en el sur de Texas\u00bb a mujeres embarazadas de otros pa\u00edses que deseaban obtener la ciudadan\u00eda estadounidense para sus hijos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seg\u00fan una investigaci\u00f3n posterior del Rio Grande Valley Business Journal, se descubri\u00f3 que las versiones archivadas de la p\u00e1gina web \u00abHave My Baby in Texas\u00bb tambi\u00e9n promocionaban los servicios de maternidad del Knapp Medical Center de Weslaco y del Harlingen Medical Center. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Desde entonces, Abbott ha ampliado la investigaci\u00f3n estatal para incluir al Knapp Medical Center, mientras que el nuevo decreto ejecutivo establece un marco m\u00e1s amplio a nivel estatal para investigar casos similares que afecten a otros proveedores de asistencia sanitaria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El Mission Regional Medical Center hab\u00eda declarado anteriormente que \u00abno apoya ni facilita ninguna actividad ilegal\u00bb y que cumple con todas las leyes federales y estatales aplicables. El hospital afirm\u00f3 que hab\u00eda retirado los materiales de promoci\u00f3n de la unidad de maternidad para evitar \u00abcualquier malentendido involuntario\u00bb y se comprometi\u00f3 a cooperar con las autoridades estatales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Abbott tambi\u00e9n ha afirmado que tiene la intenci\u00f3n de colaborar con la Asamblea Legislativa de Texas durante su pr\u00f3xima sesi\u00f3n para reforzar la legislaci\u00f3n estatal destinada a acabar con el turismo de maternidad en Texas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El decreto ejecutivo entr\u00f3 en vigor inmediatamente tras su presentaci\u00f3n ante la Secretar\u00eda de Estado de Texas el martes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
