title: [Elderly People and their lack of self-sufficiency: a socio-economic health challenge].
abstract: Due to the current population ageing in developed countries, the number of seriously disabled elderly people is on the rise, with a remarkable impact on health and socio-health public expenditure. In order to face such situation, governments should take two parallel roads: 1. adopting new models of health care offers through organizational schemes aimed at achieving not only effectiveness but also efficiency and compliance; 2. adopting new funding patterns, capable of fostering private resources through fiscal incentives.
