Abstract

The current accounting for the long term care facilities are enforced by either financial accounting stipulations of social welfare legal entity or the guiding principles of long term care insurance law. In addition, some facilities are not eligible to access to the Korea Health and Welfare information system and even don't have any obligation to report financial information. Thus financial position and performance of activities are not well known to the interested parties. This study investigated the way how to improve the current accounting stipulation of the long term care facilities. In conclusion, we should introduce the accounting standards based on the double entry system but on other aspect, also more simplified financial statement based on single entry system for smaller facilities. Also we should introduce three important appropriation accounts for the net income of institution which matches GAAP. For a successful plantation of accounting standards, it is necessary to establish provisions, government subsidy account, depreciations concept.

우리나라 장기요양기관은 노인복지법 적용 기관과 미적용 기관이 혼재되어 사회복지법인재무회계규칙이나 장기요양보험법의 지침을 따르고 있다. 그러나 시설정보시스템의 이용이 불가능한 경우도 있고 자료 제출의 강제적 의무도 없어 장기요양기관의 재무상태와 경영실태와 관련된 신뢰성있는 회계정보는 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 현재 회계 관련 규정의 문제점과 개선방향을 알아보고 회계기준 정립을 위한 방안을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서는 장기요양기관의 실태를 반영하여 단기적으로는 복식부기기준의 회계기준과 단식부기 기준의 두 가지 회계기준이 필요할 뿐 만 아니라 적정한 재무보고를 위해 회계원칙에 부합하는 세 가지의 이익처분항목을 도입하였다. 마지막으로 충당부채 계정의 도입과 국고보조금, 감가상각비 등에 대한 회계 기준을 도입하였다.
