Ente Ospedaliero Ospedali Galliera

What Ente Ospedaliero Ospedali Galliera does

Ente Ospedaliero Ospedali Galliera is a public hospital entity (ente ospedaliero pubblico) based in Genoa, Italy, founded in 1888 and operating under the Italian National Health Service (SSN). It was designated as an Ospedale di rilievo nazionale e di alta specializzazione (Hospital of national relevance and high specialization) by D.P.C.M. 14 luglio 1995, conferring protected national referral status. The institution serves the population of Genoa and the Liguria region, and acts as a national referral center for specialized services including hematopoietic stem cell transplantation coordination through the IBMDR (Italian Bone Marrow Donor Registry) which it hosts and manages.

The hospital operates a comprehensive service platform organized into six departments: Maternal-Child (obstetrics, neonatology, pediatrics, medical genetics), Medical (internal medicine, oncology, cardiology, neurology, dermatology, endocrinology, geriatrics, infectious diseases), Radiodiagnostics with Diagnostic and Therapeutic Services (nuclear medicine, neuroradiology, interventional vascular radiology, radiotherapy including stereotactic), Head-Neck (maxillofacial, plastic, otolaryngology, oncological ophthalmology, dentistry), Surgery including a Robotic Surgery Center (general, hepatobiliary-pancreatic, vascular, orthopedic, urology with ERAS protocol certification), and Time-Dependent Networks (emergency, intensive care, cardiology with cardiac unit, hemodynamics, neurology). The core technology is a comprehensive hospital information system supporting diagnostic, therapeutic, and administrative functions, with patient access through the regional CUP Liguria booking system and the regional Fascicolo Sanitario Elettronico electronic health record platform.

The business model is that of a publicly funded Italian hospital: services are delivered through the SSN with ticket-based copayments for outpatient services and free emergency care, revenue derives from regional health authority allocations (Regione Liguria) and patient service fees, and governance is exercised through institutional organs and a Collegio di Direzione with no private equity or venture capital ownership. Patient acquisition occurs via emergency walk-in, scheduled appointments through CUP Liguria, and regional physician referrals. The hospital communicates with patients through its official website, Facebook, and YouTube (Galliera News) for health education and community engagement.
