IL SERVIZIO SANITARIO NAZIONALE ITALIANO: PROFILI GENERALI.

The Italian National Health Service is considered by the WHO as one of he best in Europe, if not in the World, on the basis of three main indicators: the progress of the state of the population's health; the answer to the health's and clinic assistance expectatives of the citizens; and the guarantee of medical attention to the whole of the population. The Italian health services, at least in the European panorama, can be considered in an area of absolute excellence, specifically, considering the link between employed resources and the growth of the population's health.
