On 1 January 1988 the Norwegian Air Ambulance Plan was put into effect. The operational base for the regional counties Oppland, parts of South Trøndelag, Møre and Romsdal and Hedmark was established in the township of Dombås. The base had a helicopter staffed with a specialist in emergency medicine. The operation of this base was evaluated for the period 1 February 1988 to 1 February 1989. 242 missions were undertaken. In 27 of 184 primary missions (15%) and in 11 of 32 secondary missions (33%) the service was judged to have given health benefit. It may have prevented the death of 13 patients. The service costs during the year were approximately NOK 10 million. The cost-benefit ratio is judged to be too high. In inland-Norway, with a widely scattered population, it is probably better to improve the quality of the emergency services offered by general practitioners and ordinary road ambulances than to use a helicopter staffed with a specialist in emergency medicine.
1988年1月1日，挪威空中救护计划开始实施。奥普兰郡、南特伦德拉格郡部分地区、默勒-鲁姆斯达尔郡和海德马克郡的区域行动基地设在东布斯镇。该基地配备了一架直升机，并配有一名急救医学专家。对该基地1988年2月1日至1989年2月1日期间的运作进行了评估。共执行了242次任务。在184次主要任务中的27次（15%）以及32次次要任务中的11次（33%）中，该服务被判定对健康有益。它可能挽救了13名患者的生命。该年度的服务成本约为1000万挪威克朗。成本效益比被判定过高。在内陆挪威，由于人口分布广泛，改善全科医生和普通公路救护车提供的急救服务质量可能比使用配备急救医学专家的直升机更好。
