Abstract

The possibility and the result of the meeting between immigrant's health problems and the health services system are conditioned by legal bonds and by the ability of the system to meet different cultures and values. In the present work we outline the Italian legislation about immigration to search those critical points that may help to understand some features of immigration in Italy. We describe the foreigner's health problems, according the present documentary evidence, and we outline adequate answers.
