(MDB-AL) sent at least R $ 5.7 million to an Alagoas hospital that has contracts with companies linked to his relatives.
Dr. Clodolfo Rodrigues de Melo Regional Hospital is in a city controlled by the Bulhões family for nine years.
The health unit hires two companies that have two prime partner of the parliamentary among its partners. The deputy’s sister appears as a medical responsible for one of these companies.
Bulhões Jr.’s advisory, who is the MDB leader in the House, denies that the deputy has been active to benefit companies linked to his family.
“The report starts from the assumption that the deputy favored, through parliamentary amendments, companies that have two cousins between the partners. However, there is no demonstration of how the parliamentarian would have acted to benefit these contracted companies through bidding,” said the deputy’s team.
“It would only be possible to say that the deputy favored his relatives if there was proof that the bidding process was directed by his request,” added the parliamentarian’s advisory, assessing that it is “at least, an” incomplete report “”.
The hospital that received funds from Bulhões Jr. amendments hired, in 2017, the company Alves e Monteiro, which has between the two partners Maria Irene Alves Monteiro, a first degree cousin of the federal deputy.
Alves and Monteiro receives R $ 4.5 million annually for the hospital’s pediatric and gynecology services. Maria Irene did not answer the questions of Sheet.
The deputy’s sister, Christiane Bulhões, appears as the company’s medical manager in the contract signed in 2017 between Alves and Monteiro and the hospital. At the time, Christiane was the deputy mayor of the municipality. Christiane did not respond to the contact of the report.
The second company is Servosp, which has among its 12 partners Benício Bulhões, also cousin of Isnaldo Bulhões. In this case, it was R $ 3.5 million annually for coloproctology services.
The hospital had a total of $ 89.9 million in expenses last year.
Benício Bulhões says he became a servant partner of Servosp to be able to provide coloproctology services at the hospital.
“I can not say whether my relationship with the deputy influenced or not. When I went to work in Santana, the city and the region gained specialty that did not exist and no longer exists today,” he said. In February this year, the doctor stopped attending at the hospital.
The amounts paid to the two companies are in the transparency reports of insaúde, a social organization that manages the hospital. In its regulations for hiring services and purchase of goods, there is no need for bidding.
The federal deputy has other calls with the hospital. The director of institutional relations of the establishment is Fabiana Guimarães, wife of Renato Guimarães, employee in the cabinet of Isnaldo.
Renato was once director of the hospital, as was another employee of Isnaldo’s office, Claudemir Mota Junior. Neither responded to the questions of the Sheet.
Asked, Isnaldo Bulhões Jr.’s press office said that “Fabiana Ferraz is crowded in the area of institutional relations, not in the bidding or budgeting sectors.” “In this case, it would also be necessary to prove how she would have worked to benefit the companies mentioned,” he said.
The municipality hired the insation to manage the Dr. Clodolfo Rodrigues de Melo Hospital in 2017, when the mayor of Santana do Ipanema was Isnaldo Bulhões, father of the federal deputy. The insaúde did not answer the questions of the Sheet.
The parliamentarian’s father was succeeded in the city hall by his daughter, Christiane Bulhões, who remained at the post until last year. In 2024, who won the elections was Eduardo Bulhões, the deputy’s nephew. Renato Guimarães participated in the current mayor’s campaign.
The amount of R $ 5.7 million in hospital amendments takes into account the individual amendments of the federal deputy for medium and high complexity procedures, which in Santana do Ipanema can only be made at Dr. Clodolfo Rodrigues de Melo Hospital.
The funds were passed on in 2023 and 2024 to the municipality. Then the city made the transfers to the health unit.
Other transfers may have been made to the hospital. Since 2020, Isnaldo Bulhões Jr. has intended to, in all, R $ 11.2 million for the health of the municipality. In addition to the R $ 5.7 million sent directly to medium and high complexity procedures, another R $ 3.3 million went to primary care, which may or may not occur in the hospital, and R $ 2.4 million, for the purchase of equipment.
In addition, the health committee of the intended R $ 11.3 million for medium and high complexity procedures in Santana do Ipanema. Isnaldo is an alternate member of the Commission. Another R $ 22.8 million in rapporteur amendments had the same destination.
“It is important to highlight that the hospital in question is the only one of the Alagoas backlands that serves the 21 municipalities in the region with specialized procedures,” said the deputy.
In addition to local power in Santana do Ipanema, Isnaldo is an influential deputy in the House of Representatives. He leads the MDB, which has 44 deputies and is the fifth largest bench in the house, and is the rapporteur of the 2026 budget.
