Abstract

Il decentramento in ambito sanitario è da tempo considerato uno dei principali strumenti per far progredire i
sistemi sanitari e per rispondere alle esigenze di equità di accesso alle cure.
La dottrina ha identificato in questo trasferimento del potere decisionale “da pochi a molti” il presupposto della
valorizzazione del ruolo del management, in questo caso, massimamente responsabilizzato nella risposta agli utenti.
Per tale ragione nella definizione di una strategia di decentramento appare centrale il coinvolgimento proprio del management allo scopo di definire preventivamente il suo possibile contributo.
Obiettivo del presente lavoro è, pertanto, l’analisi del contributo del management nella definizione di una strategia di decentramento del SSN.
L’articolo approfondisce il caso della Repubblica di Tunisia come esempio significativo di Paese a medio-basso reddito.
