Disuguaglianze sociali, digital divide ed accesso ai servizi sanitari - After a short description of the main sociological approaches to social inequalities, the article proposes a co-relational reading of social inequalities in access to health services. Even if Italian healthcare system ensures universalistic and public access to care, social and regional disparities persist. The application of digital technologies to healthcare, if embedded in social complexity, can help in tackling obstacles to access.

Keywords: social inequalities; health divide; Italian healthcare system; access to care; digital divide; health literacy.
