Statistical analysis was performed using descriptive statistics and Chi-square, Mann-Whitney test and Z-test and by SPSS 22 software. Results: The number of dispatches with average age of 41 years (SD=22/78) before health evolution plan has been 209 cases and after evolution plan it has reached 279 cases with average age of 43 years (SD=22/38). The results showed that there is a significant difference between before and after health evolution plan based on non- existence of specialist and also need to operation room (p<0.05). also, the results revealed that there is no significant difference between before and after evolution plan based on specialist presence, empty bed, department or respective service, tendency to private hospital, the patient financial problem, time of getting admission and time of admission registration (p<0.05). Conclusion: Health evolution plan has been successful in the field of specialist existence in cities while, in the field of reducing dispatches from cities to center of province has not performed successfully.
