The data was collected by pollsters using face to face technique. Crude risks were calculated in different social classes and in those with or without social security for history of health problems and access to diagnostic and therapeutic health care services on outpatient and the inpatient basis. Multivariable risks were revised in accordance with age, sex and chronic health problems. Results: In comparison to unemployed population, the health problems in last 15 days was 1.79 (1.17-2.75) times more common in upper social class and similar figures were also seen in middle social class and lower social class, being 1.51 (1.10 -2.06) and 1.44 (1.04-2.00), respectively. Moreover, reaching to diagnostic\ theraupetic health care services in last 15 days was 1.73 (1.08-1.46) times more common in upper social class and this value was 1.46 (1.03-2.06) in middle social class and 1.53 (1.07-2.20) in lower social class. The revised risks of having diagnostic and therapeutic health care were similar in different social classes. In comparison to those without any social security, it was found that those with social security reported having health problems 1.58 (1.17-2.13) times more, and this was also true for out-patient diagnostic\therapeutic medical care being 2.57 (1.75-3.78) and inpatient being 3.37 (2.11-5.40) times more.
