[Framework for evaluating the performance of local healthcare: international experiences and prospects for Italy.] / Framework per la valutazione della performance dell'assistenza sanitaria territoriale: esperienze internazionali e prospettive per l'Italia.

The Italian National healthcare service currently lacks a synthetic framework for measuring the primary care legislative reform established by the National recovery and resilience plan and the legislative reform, Decree number 77/2022. This paper explores the existing international and national literature on primary care' monitoring and evaluation systems with the purpose of drawing guidelines to build up a global and systematic framework. The 2022 World health organization framework is the most advanced reference point as a result of more than twenty years of theoretical and field research. Indeed, it can be regarded as the basic model to be adapted to the specificities of the current Italian legislation and organization.
