Abstract: Health is a fundamental human right, and good health is an essential component of well-being; therefore, an ecient public health system is required to achieve well-being in society. This paper analyses the relationship between public health eciency and well-being considering a panel of 102 Italian provinces from 2000 to 2016. The results show that public health eciency enhances well-being in Italian provinces, especially in the North. The ndings could help policymakers adopt measures to strengthen the public health system, encourage private providers, and inspire countries worldwide.
