병원은 다양한 의료서비스를 제공하기 위해 의료기관 별 운영 전략에 따라 각기 다른 방식으로 운영된다. 특히 종합의료시설은 중증도가 높은 환자를 대상으로 수술이나 입원 등의 의료서비스를 효율적으로 제공하고자 그에 따른 운영 전략이 상이하다. 이러한 병원의 운영방식에 의해 결정되는 건축 역시, 건립 시기, 유형, 중증도에 따른 병원의 규모 등에 따라 시설 수준의 차이가 나타나며 이는 최근 정부에서 요구되는 제도 및 정책의 수용 여부를 결정짓는 중요한 요인이 되기도 한다. 최근 의료법은 기존 의료시설뿐만 아니라 신규 의료시설에 대한 설치 및 운영기준이 강화 추세에 있고, 서울시 또한 공공의료 확충을 위해 감염관리시설이나 필수의료시설 설치를 위한 용적률 인센티브 정책을 추진 중이다. 병원 운영 환경이 상이함에 따라 종합의료시설 설치 및 운영에 대한 인센티브제도의 적용 기준을 일괄적으로 적용하기에는 어렵다. 그러나 공익을 위해서 종합의료시설 인센티브제도를 지속 가능하게 운영하기 위한 객관적이고 합리적인 기준은 반드시 필요하다. 공공의료 기능 확충을 위한 서울시 종합의료시설 지구단위계획 수립·운영 기준은 공공과 민간이 모두 만족하는 의료환경 구축을 위해 매우 깊은 고민이 필요했다. 본 논설은 서울시 공공필요의료시설 확충 제도의 주요 내용과 공공필요의료시설 설치 및 운영 기준에 관해 소개하고자 한다. 특히 기준의 주요 내용을 정립하게 된 배경과 이유 등을 설명하여 본 제도의 의의를 정확히 전달하고 향후 보완해야 할 부분들을 검토하고자 한다.

This study analyzed how risk factors in management affect the management of working capital in general hospitals in Korea. The data used accounting information for three years (2016~2017 and 2018) of 271 general hospitals using the medical institution accounting information disclosure system. The independent variables were the working capital level and the cash conversion cycle, The dependent variables were operational risk and market risk, Control variables were selected as components of working capital(cash, accounts receivable, inventory assets, accounts payable). According to the study, the lower the operational risk, the higher the level of working capital hospitals in Korea. Working capital decisions were confirmed to be attributable to operating risks, cash, inventory assets and accounts payable. And the lower the market risk (Operating Margin), the higher the cash conversion cycle. Therefore, it is necessary to review appropriate management measures of operational risks, cash, inventory assets and accounts payable identified as operating capital determinants so that medical institutions can also have economic response capabilities in consideration of the specificity of their operations.

Many previous researchers tried to analysis relationship between financial index of hospitals such as revenue, expenses, and profit and hospital outcome such as number of inpatient and outpatient or, between that financial index and hospital size including number of hospital beds. However, these studies did not find exact relationship between financial index and hospital efficiency and productivity. Therefore, purpose of the study explores exact relationship between hospital financial outcome and hospital efficiency and productivity using adjusted inpatient days concept from American Hospital Association. Through the empirical analysis, the researchers find that hospital profit has the U-shape quadratic function to operation ratio. 66.9% of operation ratio is changing point and hospitals with 55.8% through 75.0% of operation ration have experience deficit situation. Considering the hospital circumstance, Korean hospitals would be to maintain general hospital type with various specialty departments.

As information and communications technology-based "smart hospitals" and "digital healthcare" have become a hot topic in the healthcare field, hospital mobile apps are gaining attention; but, the utilization rate is low due to lack of publicity, unstable systems, and late updates. In this situation, systematic research is needed to increase the utilization rate of hospital mobile apps, but related research has been rare. Therefore, this study integrates the information systems success model (ISSM) from the technical perspective and the expectation-confirmation model (ECM) from the cognitive perspective to demonstrate the influence mechanism on the continuous use intention of hospital mobile apps. For this purpose, an online survey was conducted among 181 Korean adults who have used hospital mobile apps. The results of the structual equation modeling showed that most of the quality factors have significant effects on expectation confirmation, perceived usefulness, and satisfaction. Additionally, expectation confirmation significantly affects perceived usefulness and satisfaction, and both perceived usefulness and satisfaction significantly affect the continuous use intention of hospital mobile apps. This study is of importance in that it integrates the ISSM and ECM and applies them to the context of using hospital mobile apps, which are underutilized in the healthcare field, and provides practical implications for increasing the utilization rate of hospital mobile apps and operating effective and efficient services through the findings.

This study identified the impacts of organizational commitment on medical service reduction rates by lifestyles of medical institution workers with a medium of environmental factors in a medical institution, and it conducted a survey targeting 300 medical institution workers in Jeolla-do, South Korea. The results are as follows. First, there was a significant difference in an organizational commitment by sociodemographic characteristics based on age, academic career, gender, marital status, occupational description, monthly earnings, the years of employment, and the type of hospital. Second, there was a significant difference in environmental factors by sociodemographic characteristics based on marital status, the years of employment, and the type of hospital. Third, there was a significant difference in the inpatient reduction rate based on the occupational description, years of employment, and the type of hospital. In the outpatient reduction rate, a significant difference was shown based on age, marital status, occupational description, the years of employment, and the type of hospital. Fourth, when analyzing the relationship between organizational commitment, environmental factors, and the reduction rate, there was a significant positive correlation between inpatient reduction rate and outpatient reduction rate. Fifth, when analyzing the impacts on the inpatient reduction rate by deploying organizational commitment and environmental factors at the same time, it was shown that the environmental factors mediated partially in organizational commitment and inpatient reduction rate. In the case of outpatient reduction rate, it was shown that the environmental factors mediated completely in organizational commitment and outpatient reduction rate. The present study is aimed to contribute to providing the baseline data for an efficient operational plan and effective workforce management of medical institutions.

This study focused on the fact that medical images that are issued at different hospitals may affect image quality on PACS when different software is used. A university hospital image was copied to the DICOM file and registered on the PACS of the university hospital B. The capacity and image quality of the software used in the university hospital were evaluated by SNR, CNR and histogram. As the compression ratio increased, SNR and CNR tended to decrease. Note that Lossless Compression decreased the data size by half compared to No Compression, but SNR and CNR did not change. As a result of the histogram analysis, the information loss due to the underflow phenomenon was conspicuous. When moving to another hospital, No compression or lossless compression method should be used. In conclusion, it is useful to use the lossless compression method, considering waiting time and economic efficiency in uploading.

Recurrence is the most common complication after shoulder instability surgery, and the main causes of the postoperative recurrence of instability are trauma, misdiagnosis, and technical errors. The risk factors of recurrence may be classified as patient related, anatomical or technical. Causes of failure should be thoroughly evaluated by meticulous history taking, physical examination, and imaging studies, and followed by proper treatment of pathologic lesions. Nonoperative treatment should be considered initially in cases of recurred instability after shoulder instability surgery, but if this fails, repeated recurrence is prevented by performing appropriate anatomical reconstruction of ruptured Bankart lesions, capsular laxities, glenoid deficiencies and humeral head bone defects.

The objective of this study is to provide high-quality medical service, by understanding the characteristics and death risk factors of patients at V long-term care hospital, that has established and operated the cooperative treatment system in connection with a public institution, the S veterans hospital. A follow-up survey targeting a total of 850 discharged patients was conducted for the year 2017. Average age of patients was 79.2 years, with 86.4% belonging to the 70 years or over group. The men of national merit were 75.4%, which was more than three times higher than general patients. Hospitalization for 180 days or more was 46.4%, which was higher than general long-term care hospitals (37%). The major death risk factors were age and the number of hospitalized days. Our data indicate that transfer to S veterans hospital results in providing quicker treatment and higher effectiveness of the numerous recovery therapies. We therefore propose that the cooperative treatment system should be expansively operated to increase the quality of happy life, by alleviating the health of patients with chronic diseases in a long-term care hospital.
