Results Through calculation, the Gini coefficient of the allocation in fiscal subsidies, medical bed allocation and health personnel was lower than 0.2, showing that there was equity in the policy for different regions, and the health department of Gansu Province didn′t adopt different policies for different geographical position. Comprehensive analysis of Theil index showed that Theil index of financial assistance and medical institutions in the health resources of Gansu Province was 0.111 7, which was the highest, but the allocation of beds was the most unfair, with the Theil index 0.093 3. On the whole, compared with the whole country, the allocation of financial subsidies, the number of beds and number of health personnel in Gansu Province medical institutions was fair, which was consistent with the research conclusion of the Gini coefficient.
