1 European Health Forum Gastein 2009 Parallel Forum 3 Session 1 TACKLING HEALTH INEQUALITIES IN EUROPE EU POLICY & RESEARCH CLOSING THE GAP Regional strategies for tackling Health Inequalities Luigi Bertinato MD Director, External Affairs Office, Department of Health & Social Services, Veneto Region, Venice, ITALY
2 Background The process of political decentralization of health care systems and public health systems to the Regions in Europe moves alongside the current debate on the right of European citizens to equal access to health and social services in the 27 Member States; 25% of European countries have a population of <5 million inhabitants corresponding to many of the average sized European Regions. Three-quarters of MS have decentralized their public health systems; There is a need to harmonize public policies to cope with the free movement of citizens and patients in the EU, and to address new demographic trends, eg. the increasing ageing population, increasing poverty, and the rising influx of non-eu immigrants. L. Bertinato, Veneto Region

21 Regional Health & Social Plan for Social Inclusion 2008 Introduces the concept of an integrated Plan for Social Inclusion by overcoming sectorial interventions according to target population; Overcomes the call for bids logic by allocating finances according to predefined criteria, so that the project can refer to definite sources of financing; Evaluates, capitalizes and promotes the model expressed by the synergy between regional planning and local project development,, experimented thanks to financing made available (art.28 L. 328/00)
22 Regional Health & Social Plan for Social Inclusion 2008 Activates a process of integration of the various areas of intervention which promote locally based collaboration among different subjects; Guarantees in each provincial territory the development of a model of partnership and co-project development among public and non-profit organizations, in favour of the vulnerable groups; Prevents the fragmentation of financial resources among a plurality of beneficiaries and their inefficacy.

25 The contribution of the European Regions to reduce Inequalities: DECENTRALISATION in order to improve efficiency (by transferring responsibilities to providers) and ensuring that, if there are inequalities, they are acceptable (by choice or being local communities financially accountable after the central levelling of resources) Courtesy of Guillem López-Casasnovas 2009
26 Conclusions - 1 European Co-operation operation between Regions, Municipalities and Member States in the area of inequalities becomes urgent for the future of an enlarged Europe; Adapting common Regional Health & Social Care strategies to new demographic trends in the short-term term can help reduce widespread inequalities; Programmes to tackle health inequalities cannot wait; Access to health and social services for EU and non-eu immigrants is one of the major challenges in the fight to address inequalities;
27 Conclusions - 2 The crisis requires in the short term a better targeting of relatively more needed population with specific flexible policies which include public-private private partnership; Subsidiarity, governance and good management of specific policies to vulnerable populations can contribute to reducing health inequalities The Regions, mainly accross the borders, are in the frontline in the Health & Social sectors for anticipating methods of collaboration between European Member States in an enlarged Europe.
