The effect of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan on the healthcare supply in the Italian provinces

The monitoring of the economic, social and environmental phenomena on which National Recovery and Resilience Plan funds represents a challenge for the policy makers. The integration between data at provincial level on the characteristics of the provinces and the open data on the NRRP funds represents an important monitoring support resource for public decision makers. The data available in the Italian government platform allows us to quantify the NRRP financing by unique project code and local project code, being able to trace the amount allocated to the provinces and individual municipalities for the NRRP missions. The scope of this work is to analyse the effect of NRRP funds on the healthcare supply in the Italian provinces estimating an econometric model in order to obtain a parameter to evaluate the impact of NRRP contributions to the access to the healthcare facilities.
