Decentralised Body/Entity/Organization

Hi Christopher.
I live in Mexico City so I just picked up the phone and called them.

The "O.D." (which is part of their official title) stands for "Organismo Decentralizado".
I'm not sure how you wish to translate "organismo" but I've given you some options.
Cheers

Muchas gracias, María:-)
agree Lory Lizama : Descentralised Body, or else, you could leave it that way, since it is part of the Hospital name
