현재의 보건의료체계에서는 모든 것이 급박하게 변화하고 있으며 또 구체적인 자료를 요구한다. 컴퓨터의 보급과 함께 이러한 변화에 능동적으로 대처하기 위해 간호학에서도 표준화된 대규모 데이터베이스의 개발이 필수적이다. Nursing Minimum Data Set (NMDS)은 간호학분야에서 개발된 최초의 표준화된 대규모 데이터 베이스로서, 간호가 일어나는 모든 상황에서 반드시 수집되어야 할 핵심적인 간호요소를 포함하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 NMDS 개발의 역사적인 배경, 목적, 요소, 그리고 간호계의 세계적인 동향과 관련하여 NMDS가 이루어야 할 방향, 그리고 NMDS를 완성하기 위해 선행되어 할 문제로 표준화된 분류체계에 대해 논의하였다. 그리고 미국이외에도 몇몇나라에서 NNDS나 혹은 유사한 데이터베이스가 개발 중이거나 이미 수집되고 있는 나라들이 있으므로 이들에 대한 비교와 분석도 제시하였다. 그리고 보다 최근에 개발된 데이터 베이스로 주로 행정적인 목적을 위해 개발된 Nursing Management Minimum Data Set (NMMDS)을 소개하였다. 즉 NMDS가 임상적인 자료의 수집에 초점을 맞춘 데 비해, NMMD는 효과적인 간호관리에 필수적인 요소들을 포함시켰다. 그래서 간호행정가들이 의사결정에 필요한 재정적자원, 환경적자원, 간호자원에 대한 정보를 수집할 수 있게 고안되었다. 이러한 데이터 베이스들은 관계형 데이터베이스로 서로 연결되어야 하며, 다른 학문분야와도 연계되어 활용되어져야 할 것이다. 만약 이러한 대규모 데이터베이스 들이 한국에서도 개발되고 사용되어 진다면 환자간호에 더욱 비용 효과적인 관리가 가능하게 될 것이다. 마지막으로 우리나라에서 NMDS나 NMMDS 같은 대규모데이터 베이스의 개발이 시급히 요청됨을 강조하였다.

This study investigates the distribution characteristics of medical services in Korea. For the purpose this paper examines the spatial discordance between the provisions of the medical services and the need for them, and analyzes the spatial distribution patterns of medical service in both inter- and intra-regional levels. Disclosed is a severe regional disparity problem in the provision of medical facilities at both inter-regional and intra-regional levels. In recent years people's interest gets increased more in the social well-being of the community, and the resulting strong request makes it desirable to restructure the healthcare service system. This study has thus attempted to draw out the distribution function of the medical facilities, based on the examination of the real data. A particular attention has been paid to whether there exists any hierarchical structure in their size distribution. Quite remarkably, no appreciable hierarchical structure has been observed in the scale of the medical facilities in Korea, in sharp contrast to of the three-level hierarchical structure assumed in the three-level referral system adopted widely. Remarkably, it is revealed that medical facilities in Korea are described by scale-invariant distribution functions. Instead, scale-invariant power-law behavior has been found in the size distribution, which is expected to be rather generic and applicable to other countries as well.

Many countries have tried to reform financing systems toward UHC and paid attention to the function of strategic purchasing. This study was performed to examine theoretical foundations and the function of strategic purchasing. And we examined the functions of strategic purchasing in Korea based on the framework proposed by Preker(2005). For this purpose, we reviewed literature related to purchasing. we defined the strategic purchasing as strategic activities to provide health care services people need within a given budget, which is carried out by certain organizations, purchasing organizations. These activities include selecting appropriate providers, designing and operating the payment system, setting the price, and determining the target populations and their needs etc. The relationships among government, purchasers and healthcare providers can be explained by the principal-agent theory. In addition to Preker's framework, we emphasized the importance of the infrastructure such as decision making support systems, information systems, health care resource management systems, or expenditure monitoring systems. The National Health Insurance Service and the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service play major roles in performing strategic purchasing.

Dengue virus transmission is a viral infection disease between humans and Aedes mosquitoes. Dengue is ubiquitous throughout the tropics and subtropical zones, where 1/3 of the global population live. The weather in Korea is also changing to subtropical weather, resulting in increased vulnerable Korean population to dengue virus transmission. It is important to control and prevent the dengue risk with track-recording & monitoring system. It is also required to have the control system to treat and monitor dengue patients with various cases such as regions, ages, genders according to the track-record of the disease. In this paper, we developed a Dengue Control & Prevention System, which can monitor and control dengue outbreaks in real-time with in-vitro diagnostic devices. Dengue Control & Prevention System is composed of in-vitro diagnostic device, which is a fluorescent immunoassay, and real-time monitoring system. In the future, we expect that our Dengue Control & Prevention System can be upgraded to have various disease information from Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency for government policies and diseases control in Korea.
