Abstract

In this research, we analyzed the efficiency of 20 public health centers of Gyeongnam Province during 2007-2009, so weakness of input and output factor were found. We used the CCR, BCC model of Data Envelopment Analysis as a method of evaluation, made a choice human resource as the input variable, made a selection the performance of public health care center, ward as the output variable. The results of this study show that the efficiency of 20 public health centers have got better because Government and Gyeongnam have provided administrative, financial support. It is expected that this research can give good information for effective management of public health centers.

본 연구는 경남지역 20개 보건소를 대상으로 2007-2009년 까지 3년 동안의 효율성을 분석한 후, 그 결과를 토대로 비효율 보건소의 투입 및 산출변수의 목표량을 규명함으로써 운영의 효율성 제고에 실질적인 도움을 주기 위한 목적으로 수행하였다. 효율성 평가방법으로 자료포락분석(Data Envelopment Analysis: DEA)의 CCR, BCC 모형을 이용하여 보건소 전체 효율성과 사업 영역별 효율성을 평가하였다. 투입변수로는 인력(의료직, 간호 및 기술직, 사무직)을, 산출변수로는 보건소 사업(진료실적, 구강보건, 예방접종, 노인보건, 모자보건, 방문보건)을 선정하였다. 분석 결과, 기술효율성(TE)의 경우 2007년 평균은 0.912, 2008년 0.877, 2009년 0.917이었으며, 순수기술효율성(PTE)의 2007년 평균은 0.961, 2008년 0.946, 2009년 0.964, 그리고 규모의 효율성(SE)의 2007년 평균은 0.944, 2008년 0.925, 2009년 0.952로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 경남지역 보건소의 효율성이 전반적으로 높은 수준임을 알 수 있는데, 이는 국가 및 경상남도에서 그동안 보건소의 공공 보건사업을 활성화하기 위해 지속적으로 행정적, 재정적 지원을 추진한 결과로 보인다. 본 연구의 결과는 향후 경남지역 공공보건사업의 체계적인 기획, 수행 및 평가체계의 구축은 물론, 전국의 다른 지역 보건소에 대해서도 효율성 제고를 위한 유용한 시사점을 줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
