Le disuguaglianze di salute tra le regioni italiane. Quale relazione con il PIL procapite?

The evidence of health inequalities within geographical areas in the belonging to the same country or geographical area, is one of the biggest failures of today's society: higher rates of morbidity and mortality have been reported among lower socio-economic groups in many European countries. Despite numerous contribution in literature, still remains an uncertainty about the relationship between socio-economic and health conditions, about their mutual interdependence and about the implications for health policy. The aim of this work is to propose an indicator of health constructed for Italian Regions that highlights the existing differences between the regions surveyed, and to verify the existing relationship between such indicator and the disposable income of families.
