Abstract

This study is conducted to improve the quality of healthcare services responding to COVID-19 by applying the public service quality management framework that is developed from ISO18091:2019 by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety of South Korea. The COVID-19 pandemic has been impacting the world since early 2020, and now in November 2020, it still has not been eliminated. The Korean medical institutions were able to prevent the spread of COVID-19 by agile test and strict cohort isolation. As a result, the so-called K-medical defense has achieved a positive reputation from around the world. In this study, we check and evaluate the current status of the COVID-19 response targeting some Korean hospitals by applying a quality control checklist based on the public service quality management framework. Status of 7 categories are analyzed based on the interview with 3 medical institutions. We also suggest improvements for better medical service quality in case of COVID-19 being prolonged.

본 연구는 ISO18091:2019 을 기반으로 행정안전부에서 개발한 공공서비스 품질관리 프레임워크를 의료기관의 COVID-19 대응 시스템에 적용하고 이를 통하여 관련 의료서비스 품질 개선을 위한 방안을 마련하기 위하여 수행되었다. 2020년에 초에 발생한 COVID-19 사태는 전 세계를 강타하고 있으며 2020년 11월 현시점까지 해결되고 있지 않은 중대한 사건이라고 할 수 있다. 한편, 우리나라의 의료기관들은 신속한 확진자 검사 및 철저한 격리를 통하여 COVID-19 바이러스의 전파를 막는 데 좋은 성과를 내고 있다. 그 결과로 소위 K-방역은 전 세계로부터 긍정적 명성을 얻고 있다. 본 연구에서는 공공서비스 품질관리 프레임워크를 기반으로 작성된 품질관리 체크리스트를 적용하여 국내 의료기관의 COVID-19 대응 관련 현황을 점검 및 평가하였다. 3개의 의료기관과의 인터뷰를 수행하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 7가지의 범주에 대한 현황을 분석할 수 있었다. 또한, COVID-19사태의 장기화에 대비한 관련 의료서비스 품질을 위한 개선점도 제안하였다.
