Healthcare funding and policy in Emilia-Romagna

Overview

The Emilia-Romagna region has implemented several healthcare-related financial adjustments and investments. Following a decision to raise daily tariffs for hospice services, the regional government announced a broader allocation of funds for 2026.

These investments include 40 million euros dedicated to strengthening the mental health network, with 33.7 million euros specifically designated for the ‘Fondo per l’autonomia possibile – Salute mentale’. This fund supports socio-sanitary interventions, autism spectrum disorders, and the transition of individuals from psychiatric hospitals.

Furthermore, the regional council allocated 600,000 euros to provide high-specialty medical treatments for non-EU citizens, specifically targeting minors from regions affected by war or extreme poverty. This program covers critical fields such as cardiology, oncology, and pediatric surgery.
