Eduardo Read Estrella

Eduardo Read Estrella is a businessman and the owner of KHERSUN S.A., a company involved in providing health-related services in the Dominican Republic. He has recently been implicated in a corruption investigation linked to the National Health Insurance (Senasa), where reports suggest his company was receiving approximately 65 million pesos monthly from 2021 to 2025. Investigations have highlighted significant issues at the facilities operated by his company, including a lack of specialists and inadequate equipment. Additionally, Read is associated with another company, DELESTE SRL, which was established in 2021 and is purportedly focusing on healthcare expansion in tourism areas, although the reality indicates a concentration in rural regions.
