[Testing an algorithm to identify disabilities using current health and social healthcare database: the experience of the Agency for Health Protection of the Metropolitan Area of Milan].

the definition of standardized tools, such as the selection from several available healthcare data provided by service suppliers, can be helpful in obtaining reliable data on the prevalence of disability in the population.
