Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of Medicaid case management (CM) performed by Medicaid case managers on health management and to examine the overall health care utilization with high risk Medicaid beneficiaries. The subjects involved in this research were 113 Medicaid beneficiaries who were recipients CM in Y-gu between October 1st, 2012 and March 31th, 2013. The results show that there were significant differences in 'recognition of own disease', 'understanding of Medicaid policy', 'medication' and 'healthy lifestyle'. Also there were significant differences in 'appropriateness of health utilization', 'number of medical institutions', 'level of social isolation' and 'general health status'. In addition, significant differences were found in Medicaid days, outpatient days, medication days and Medicaid costs. It was found that the Medicaid CM had a positive effect on health care utilization. The study suggests the need of strengthening and diversifying Medicaid CM as well as supporting the management and monitoring after the termination of Medicaid CM.

본 연구의 목적은 의료급여관리사가 수행한 의료급여 사례관리가 고위험군 의료급여 수급권자의 건강관리 및 전반적 의료이용에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위함이다. 2012년 10월 1일부터 2013년 3월 31일까지 Y구에서 의료급여 사례관리를 제공받은 대상자 중 113명의 조사 자료를 연구대상으로 하였다. 의료급여 사례관리 제공 전과 제공 후 자신의 질병상태 이해, 의료급여제도 이해, 약물복용과 생활습관관리에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 또한 전반적 의료이용의 적정성, 이용 기관수, 사회적 고립도 및 건강상태도 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 실급여일수, 외래내원일수와 기관부담금도 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보여 고위험군 의료급여 사례관리 대상자의 전반적 의료이용에 긍정적인 효과를 나타냈다. 향후 의료급여 사례관리 사업의 다양화, 사후관리 및 모니터링 프로그램의 강화가 필요하다.
