Abstract
Access to healthcare services is critical to good health, yet residents of internal areas face a variety of access barriers. The obstacles faced by health care providers and patients in rural areas are vastly different from those in urban areas. This might be caused by economic factors, cultural and social differences, educational shortcomings, lack of recognition by legislators and the sheer isolation of living in internal areas all conspire to create health care disparities and impede people living in internal areas in their struggle to lead normal healthy lives. Italy’s indicators of health system outcomes and quality are consistently good. This is despite levels of health spending below other high-income countries like Germany, France, and other EU nations. However, Italy is lagging in some areas, like long-term care and prevention of non-communicable diseases. Based on available analyses, further progress is called for to promote appropriateness of care, address geographic imbalances in health care use and prevent the spread of risk factors including chronic diseases and regular health issues. To eradicate these issues, it is essential to develop a system that will help internal areas patients by using contemporary technologies. The improved system could assist patients also without the presence in the same place of a doctor that will generate corresponding prescriptions, which authenticated by physicians will be stored in the database.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
