Homeopathy and complementary medicine in Tuscany, Italy: integration  
in the public health system
Elio Rossi, Sonia Baccetti, Fabio Firenzuoli and Katia Belvedere

The healthcare programmes of the Region of Tuscany, Italy have  
contained references to various types of non-conventional medicine  
since 1996, and the last three Regional Health Plans have includes a  
chapter on non-conventional medicine that arguably represent the  
greatest degree of integration of such therapies in the public health  
care system achieved thus far in Italy. The Plan aims to guarantee  
definitive integration in the Regional Health Service of types of non- 
conventional medicine which are supported by a sufficient level of  
scientific evidence to allow them to be defined as forms of  
complementary medicine (acupuncture, herbal medicine, homeopathy and  
manual medicine). Moreover, in 2007 the Regional council of Tuscany,  
for the first time in Italy, approved a regional law disciplining the  
pratice of complementary medicines on the part of doctors, dentists,  
Veterinarians and pharmacists.
