The Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria de Getafe currently comprises Hospital Universitario de Getafe, Universidad Europea de Madrid, and Fundación para la Investigación Biomédica del Hospital Universitario de Getafe. It governs itself based on a model in which the Instituto de Investigación has no legal personality and Fundación para la Investigación Biomédica del Hospital Universitario de Getafe acts as a management structure.
Hospital Universitario de Getafe is the CORE of the Instituto, as set out in Royal Decree 339/2004 on the Certification of Institutes.
Fundación para la Investigación Biomédica del Hospital Universitario de Getafe acts as a single research management structure that is separate from the academic and care management structure.
