Alonso hadn't lied when he told Jovani that there were men heading in his direction. He just didn't know how quickly they would get there. He just that he personally wouldn't be there in enough time.
He called in a favor of a hospital that was close to the area. He would have to pay a pretty penny to get them to not say anything about the scene that they would be stepping into, but it was the best that he could do to get them on to the scene as quickly as possible.
Bribes existed exactly for this kind of problem. They were also one of the few situations in which Alonso would approve of them on his own outside of what Jovani directed.
Right now though, he needed to be the person who was in charge since the other man was busy with other important matters and couldn't be there to make the calls.
