  • 본 연구에서는 임의시간 환산계수(Conversion Factor, CF)와 관련하여 거의 유일한 이론적 연구인 Weiss 모형을 자세히 검토하고, 그 문제점을 보완한 수정 Weiss 모형을 제안하였다. 아울러 강우의 특성을 반영하지 못하는 이들 모형의 한계를 극복하는 시도의 하나로서 강우의 시간분포 특성을 고려허여 CF를 추정하고 이를 실제 관측 자료에 근거한 CF와 비교하였다. 그 결과 수정 Weiss 모형을 근거로 산정한 CF 값은 강우 시간분포의 형태에 따라 다양한 값으로 나타났다. 특히, 중앙으로 집중된 강우 시간분포 형태에 대한 이론적인 CF 값이 실측 자료에 근거한 국내 외 CF 값들과 매우 유사한 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • Objectives : This paper analysed the alternative methods of calculating conversion factor for oriental medicine in the National Health Insurance and estimated the conversion factor(reimbursing price level) of the oriental medical services, based on health insurance claims data and macro economic data. Methods : Comparing cost accounting method, SGR model, and index model to estimate conversion factor in the national health insurance, six empirical models were derived depending on the scope of revenue considered in financial indicators. Classifications of data and sources used in the analysis were identified as officially released by the government. Results and Conclusion : Cost accounting analysis and SGR model showed a two digit decrease in the physician fee schedule of oriental medical services in the national health insurance, while index model indicated a positive increase in the fee reimbursed. As expected, SGR model measured an overall trend of health expenditures rather than an individual financial status of medical institutions, and index model properly estimated the level of payments to oriental medical doctors. Upon a declining share of health expenditures on oriental medicine, a global budget system fixed to a flat rate of total budget could be an opportunity as well as a challenge.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a resource-based relative value scale (RBRVS) and its conversion factor for advanced nursing practices carried out by critical care nurse practitioners (CCNP) in intensive care units. Methods: The methodology was developed by calculating CCNP's RBRVS for 32 advanced nursing services based on CCNP's workload and time spent in the context of national health insurance. A cost analysis was performed to estimate the conversion factor of CCNP's RBRVS. The share of CCNP's contribution to fee-for-service in intensive care units was also analyzed. Results: Calculation of the RBRVS of 32 advanced nursing practices showed a range of points from 100.0 to 1,181.4 and an average of 296.1 points. The relevant conversion factor for advanced nursing practices in CCNP were estimated at 37.3-48.4 won. The contribution rate of CCNP's advanced nursing practices in the relative value scale of the national health insurance was estimated at 0.1-31.3%. Conclusion: Measuring the economic value of advanced nursing services will be a basis for esta-blishing a reimbursement system for CCNP's practices and thus encourage a social demand for advanced nurse practitioners.

  • For the Evaluation of X-ray image intensifier, we measured radiation dose at input of I. I., brightness and fluorescence at output of I. I. by using X-ray exposure meter, optometer and fluorescence meter for the relative conversion factor. Especially, by using fluorescence meter, we could easily get relative conversion factor without having regulated machine by JIS. Since using, the quality of image intensifier is going down. Consequently, it needs continuous quality maintenance.

  • The allocation of margin of safety (MOS) at a uniform rate to all areas of the unit watershed makes it very difficult to keep the load allotment stable in the area for lack of reduction measures like forest land. This study developed an equation to calculate margin of safety differentially according to the regional characteristics. The equation was formulated on the basis of the regional characteristic factors such as a load contribution factor for land use type and a site conversion factor for the unit watershed. The load contribution factor represents a contribution of loads from a particular land use. The site conversion factor was derived from the site conversion ratio of a unit watershed. Margin of safety for the non-point pollution load in the land use sector decreased by 20~25% in three river basins. The margin of safety in the unit watersheds with low site occupation ratios decreased in high rate, while in the unit watersheds with large urban area decreased in low rate. With the application of the differential margin of safety considering regional characteristics, not only the reduction of pollution loads can become lighter but also it can be easier to develop plans for Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) even where the reduction measures are not available.

  • The Nile blue has been used as a photosensitizer with Arabinose as a reductant in photogalvanic cell for optimum conversion efficiency and storage capacity. Reduction cost of the photogalvanic cell for commercial utility. The generated photopotential and photocurrent are 816.0 mV and $330.0{\mu}A$ respectively. The maximum power of the cell is $269.30{\mu}W$ where as the observed power at power point is $91.28{\mu}W$. The observed conversion efficiency is 0.6095% and the fill factor 0.2566 has been experimentally found out at the power point of the photogalvanic cell, whereas the absolute value is 1.00. The photogalvanic cell so developed can work for 120.0 minutes in dark if it is irradiated for 200.0 minutes that is the storage capacity of photogalvanic cell is 60.00%. The effects of different parameters on the electrical output of the photogalvanic cell have been observed. A mechanism has also been proposed for the photogeneration of electrical energy.

  • ANSI는 교정용 팬텀으로 PMMA 평판형 팬텀을 제시하면서 이에 대한 선량당량환산 계수를 계산하는 방법을 제시하였다. PMMA 평판형 팬텀에 대한 광자의 선량당량환산계수는 ICRU조직 정육면체 팬텀에 대한 후방산란인자 및 선량당량환산계수와 PMMA 평판에 대한 후 방산란인자를 각각 구한 후 이를 이용하여 간접적으로 계산하도록 제시하였다. 그러나 중성자에 대한 PMMA 평판형 팬텀에서의 선량당량환산계수의 계산방법은 아직도 제시하지 못하고 있다. 이 연구에서는 ANSI가 제시한 광자에 대한 선량당량환산계수 계산방법을 중성자에 대해 적용하여 PMMA 평판에 대한 중성자의 선량당량환산계수를 최초로 계산하였다. 중성자에 대해 선질가중조직커마를 도입하여 ICRU 정육번체와 PMMA 평판에서 후방산간인자를 계산하였고 ICRU 정육면체에 대한 중성자의 선량당량환산계수를 계산한 후 이를 이용하여 PMMA 평판에서의 중성자에 대한 선량당량환산계수를 계산하였다. 그 결과 PMMA 평판에 대한 중성자의 선량당량환산계수는 대부분의 에너지 영역에서 ICRU 정육면체에 대한 중성자의 선량당량환산계수와 10% 이내의 차이를 보였으나 1eV. 1keV, 4 MeV에서는 $15{\sim}20%$, 정도 크게 나타났다.

  • We present modality conversion as an effective means for QoS management. We show that modality conversion, in combination with content scaling, would give a wider range of adaptation to support QoS at media level. Here, we consider modality conversion with respect to resource constraint and human factor. To represent modality conversion as well as content scaling, we present the overlapped content value (OCV) model that relates the content value of different modalities with resources. The specification of user preference on modality conversion is divided into qualitative and quantitative levels. The user preference is then integrated into the OCV model so that modality conversion correctly reflects the user's wishes. For the conversion of multiple contents, an optimization problem is formulated and solved by dynamic programming. The experiments show that the proposed approach is efficient to be applied in practice.

  • 본 연구에서는 1주기와 2 주기 모두 의료기관평가 대상이 된 병원의 Malmquist 지수를 구하고 지수변동의 원인을 분석하였다. 그 결과 평가대상이 된 병원의 Malmquist 방식에 의한 생산성 향상이 이루어졌음을 발견할 수 있었다. 의료기관평가점수와 생산성 변동과의 관계를 살펴본 결과 진료 및 운영체계 점수가 부문별성과 점수에 비해 높은 설명력을 가지고 있었다. 또한 생산성 향상이 큰 병원일수록 환산지수 하락 폭도 큰 것으로 나타났으며 이러한 결과는 병원의 종별, 그룹별, 지역별 모수 요인과도 독립적인 것으로 나타났다. 생산성 변동 폭이 큰 병원일수록 환산지수 하락 폭이 더 큰 것으로 나타나 수가계약의 한 요소로 생산성지표를 도입할 수 있는 가능성을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 정태적 효율성 보다는 다기간 생산성 변동을 반영한 환산지수 추정 모형과 지불제도 개편 시 다연도성과를 반영하는 메카니즘 개발이 검토되어야 한다는 점을 의미한다.
