Humanitas Gavazzeni is a multi-

specialty hospital, accredited by the

Servizio Sanitario Nazionale for

outpatient and hospitalization. Its well

organized in departments with a validrelated list of specialists for each

disease that can be treated at the

facility

Despite this organization, the website

doesnt mention any waiting list togive a kind of indication of timetable

for the services supplied.

Checking out once again

the waiting lists of theprovided services at the

hospital, any of them can

be found. The only data

provided is a past annual

forecast of year 2011.

Bergamo is a real time interface whichconnects as a network of public facilitiesin Bergamo, their waiting lists for theservices supplied and the chance for

patients to make comparison among thesestructures.
