Abstract
Taking as its starting point the division of competences before and after the reform of Title V of the Italian Constitution, the essay surveys the main supranational experiences in health care federalism (particularly, in the European Union) and how different countries have tried to combine the principle of decentralisation and the guarantee of treatment uniformity for assisted citizens in the enjoyment of services. Turning to the Italian system, the essay investigates to which extent the Regions used the opportunities opened by the constitutional reform to adopt different models in providing health services, and which are – if they are currently determinable – the effects of fiscal federalism on the management of health care resources.
