The study aims to examine the determinants that affect satisfaction, revisit intention, and recommendation intention with foreign tourists who visited Korea despite the threat of COVID-19. This study employs the survey data collected by the Korea Tourism Organization from 8,135 foreign tourists who visited Korea in 2020. As the survey data contains a mixture of continuous and categorical variables, decision tree analysis can ensure analytical validity for the research. According to the analytical results, the determinants affecting satisfaction are the purpose of the visit and acceptance of self-quarantine during their stay. The factors influencing revisit intention are the purpose of the visit, frequency of the visit, and acceptance of self-quarantine during their stay. The determinants affecting recommendation intention are the purpose of the visit, length of stay, and gender. Based on the results of this analysis, this study not only explains the relationship between these determinants and tourism satisfaction, revisit intention, and recommendation intention, but also suggests implications for revitalizing tourism activities.

문제: 본원의 외래 상황은 진료의가 짧은 시간 내에 많은 환자를 진료해야 하고, 진료 환자 모두에게 충분히 만족하도록 설명해주는 것은 매우 어려운 실정이었다. 2007년의 의료기관 본 평가에 앞서 병원 자체 평가 결과 외래환자의 설명 만족도는 57점으로 저조하였다. 목적: "이해하기 쉽게 설명하는 서울대학교 병원" 이라는 슬로건 하에 설명간호사 제도를 운영하기 시작하여, 설명간호사실 운영 활성화를 통한 외래 환자 만족도를 향상시키고자 한다. 의료기관: 서울시 종로구에 소재한 대학병원 질 향상 활동: 설명간호사실 방문율 증가 및 one-stop service care을 실현할 수 있는 방안을 모색하였고, 검사 시행 이유, 귀가 후 주의사항 검사 결과, 검사일정 외래 진료 안내 브로셔 및 표준화된 교육 자료를 개발하였다. 또한 설명간호사의 역할 및 업무의 확립을 위한 업무기술서를 개발 및 설명간호사실 환경을 개선하였다. 개선효과: 설명간호사실의 방문율이 내과는 2배, 신경과는 3배 정도 증가하였다. 표준화된 교육 자료 개발로 설명 요구도를 충족시켰고, '환자의 알 권리'와 '설명을 들을 권리'를 보장하였다. 업무기술서 개발로 설명간호사의 업무 및 역할을 확립하였으며 설명간호사실의 환경 개선으로 개인 신상 비밀을 보호받을 권리를 보장하였다. 외래 설명만족도가 2007년 57점에서 2008년 74점으로 향상되었다. 설명간호사실 자체 설문조사에서도 97%가 만족한다고 답하였고, 100% 모두 재방문 의사를 보였다. one-stop service care를 제공함으로써 외래가 복잡하다는 부정적인 이미지를 긍정적인 이미지로 변화시켰다.

Purpose: This is a comparative study using secondary data from the Korean national long term care (LTC) insurance. Methods: Visiting nursing (VN) service users (n=666) and non-users (n=4,375) were extracted and compared in terms of medical expenditures, length of hospitalization, and annual number of ambulatory care visits to investigate effects of VN services in LTC. Results: Total health care expenditures were compared between the two groups and it was found that VN service users spent about $ 1700 than non-users for their medical costs between 2009 and 2011. The average length of in-hospital stay for VN service users was 19.4 days shorter than that of non-users. However, using VN services did not significantly influence the annual number of ambulatory care visits. Conclusion: The study has found that VN services are effective ways of providing community-based LTC services. We recommend LTC policy makers to further utilize VN services to deliver cost effective health care services.

'한국방문의 해'를 기점으로 출간된 여행안내서를 보면, 한국알림지와 가이드 북의 중간형태를 띤 책이 주종을 이룬다. 외래 여행자들에게 숙박업소와 음식점 등 주제를 세분화한 안내서가 필요하지만 출판사에서는 복잡한 제작과정을 이유로 미루고 있다. 아직까지도 잘 만든 여행안내서 한권이 아쉬운 상황이다.

본 연구는 행정자료인 건강보험 및 의료급여비용 청구자료를 이용하여 고혈압 환자의 투약 순응도를 분석하였으며, 투약순응도에 영향을 미치는 요인에 대하여 조사한 결과 아래와 같다. 연구대상자의 투약일수를 살펴보면 6개월 동안 148일(80%) 이상 혈압강하제를 처방받은 환자는 13.0%에 불과하였다. 고혈압상병(주.부상병)으로 외래를 방문한 평균 횟수는 4.3일, 방문한 기관수는 평균 1.1곳이었고, 한곳의 의료기관만을 이용한 환자가 전체의 94.9%로 나타났다. 당뇨병을 동반상병으로 가지고 있는 환자가 11.6%로 가장 많았고 고혈압 환자의 23.3%가 동반상병을 가지고 있었다. 연구 대상자 특성별 투약순응도를 비교해 보면, 남성, 건강보험 가입자, 종합전문을 주이용기관으로 이용하는 환자, 동반상병을 가지고 있는 환자에서 투약 순응도가 높았다. 65-74세까지 투약 순응도가 증가하다가 그 후 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 고혈압 환자의 투약 순응도에 영향을 미치는 요인 조사 결과 남성, 55-64세, 건강보험 가입자가 투약순응도가 높게 나타났다. 외래방문횟수가 증가할수록 투약 순응도가 증가하였다. 종합전문, 종합병원, 보건기관을 주 이용기관으로 방문하는 환자와 심장질환, 당뇨병을 동반상병으로 가지고 있는 환자에서 투약순응도가 높았다.
