Geographical variation of unmet medical needs in Italy: a multivariate logistic regression analysis

Table 1 Percentages of individuals reporting any unmet medical need by macro-area

Macro-area	Regions	Percentage	SE	CI	CV
North-West	Piemonte, Valle d’Aosta, Lombardia, Liguria	4.9	0.27	(4.3; 5.4)	4.42
North-East	Autonomous Provinces of Bolzano and Trento, Veneto, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Emilia Romagna	4.6	0.24	(4.1; 5.0)	4.57
Centre	Toscana, Umbria, Marche, Lazio	6.2	0.31	(5.6; 6.8)	3.91
South	Abruzzo, Molise, Campania, Puglia, Basilicata, Calabria	10.6	0.4	(9.8; 11.4)	2.90
Islands	Sicilia, Sardegna	9.0	0.56	(7.9; 10.1)	3.18
ITALY		6.9	0.15	(6.6; 7.2)	3.68

Note: All results are weighted. SE = robust standard errors. CI= 95% confidence intervals. CV= coefficients of variation. For each macro-area, the CV is computed as the ratio of the standard deviation of the regional percentages of population with unmet needs to the mean percentage in the macro-area.
