Healthcare services in Italy’s Campania region are facing scrutiny over resource management, funding disparities, and accessibility. 

In the provinces of Salerno and Naples, diabetic patients face new costs of approximately 19 euros for essential medical visits starting November 1. The Campania Diabetes Association has criticized the regional government for failing to redistribute approximately 850,000 euros in unspent funds from the Caserta and Avellino districts, noting that such funds could cover over 47,000 check-ups. Regional data indicates significant spending disparities, with per capita expenditure in Caserta and Avellino averaging 240 euros, compared to less than 100 euros in Salerno and Naples.

Concurrently, the Cisl Napoli trade union has launched a campaign to address long medical waiting lists in the Naples metropolitan area. The initiative assists vulnerable citizens in navigating legal pathways to access specialist visits and diagnostic exams. Additionally, medical professionals are addressing pharmaceutical waste, specifically regarding expensive monoclonal antibody therapies. Experts are advocating for precision medicine, such as nasal cytology, to ensure costly biological treatments are prescribed more accurately to protect both patient health and regional budgets.
