Abstract

In the present age of artificial intelligence and metaverse, research on the importance of data and the amount of data is actively being conducted. Among these data, medical data contains the most sensitive information of individuals, so research on data generation, storage, management, and disposal is urgently needed. This study analyzed the status of medical data management in the United States, Europe, and Korea, and identified and analyzed medical data management laws and implementation status through working-level staff working in medical sites. As a result of the analysis, about 70% of medical professionals were able to identify the absence of recognition and management of medical data. The survey subjects were limited to Gwangju and Jeollanam-do, and 237 medical workers were conducted. More than 54% of the awareness of medical record generation, storage, and management came out, but about 70% of the occupations except doctors, oriental doctors, and dentists did not recognize the medical record management method. As necessary for medical record management, cost and the need for professional managers were 91.4%. Through this study, it was confirmed that the expansion of legal education for medical workers, the enactment of related laws, and the need for sincere fostering of medical record managers were required.
