Outpatient visits
Access to national health care services requires a doctor’s prescription. The payment of “tickets” (cost to be paid by the patient as a participatory contribution to the national health service) and outpatient services, can be paid in cash (up to the maximum amount allowed by law), by check, bank card, or credit card, at the cash office from 8.20 a.m. onwards (and from 7.30 a.m. for physiotherapy services provided in the early hours of the morning).
Il progressivo innalzamento dell'aspettativa di vita della popolazione ha visto aumentare l'incidenza della patologie cardiovascolari degenerative legate all'invecchiamento. Tra queste le patologie valvolari, la malattia coronarica e lo scompenso cardiaco rappre-sentano le cause più comuni di ospedalizzazione dei pazienti anziani. La presenza di comorbilità severe, come l'insufficienza renale, il diabete, l'ipertensione e le affezioni polmonari, tipiche dell'età avanzata, associate spesso alla bassa frazione di eiezione, a precedente chirurgia cardiaca ed all'urgenza dell'intervento, possono influire in termini negativi sull'outcome dell'intervento.
