최근 필수의료에 대한 접근성 문제가 중요한 사회적 현안이 되고 있다. 정부는 필수의료 제공체계를 강화하기 위해 '필수의료 정책 패키지'를 종합적 대안으로 제시하고 2028년까지 10조 원 이상의 재원을 투입하겠다고 천명하였다. 의료체계의 틀을 바꾸는 중요한 내용을 담고 있는 만큼, 정책 추진 시 고려해야 할 몇 가지 논점을 제시하고자 한다. 첫째, 의사인력양성시스템 설계 시 정쟁화를 막는 기전이 강구되어야 한다. 둘째, 전공의 의존도를 줄이고 전문의 중심 병원으로 전환하는 것은 전공의 양성비용을 사회가 부담하는 한편, 전문의 서비스에 대한 대가로 고비용을 지불한다는 것을 의미한다. 이러한 변화로 인한 비용을 사회가 지불할 용의가 있는지를 숙고하고 적절하게 예산이 마련되어야 한다. 셋째, 세부 정책수단들 중 공유형 진료체계나 지역네트워크사업 등은 개념적 논의 수준에 있기 때문에 다양한 쟁점들이 내실 있게 검토되어야 하며, 국내 의료체계의 여건에 적합하도록 중장기적으로 검토해갈 필요가 있다.

Due to the increasing interest in wellness aroused by the aging population and the pursuing feature of active old age, Korean elderly set importance on long life with their healthy condition. Following the change in the paradigm of the medical delivery system from hospital-oriented, treatment-oriented to personal-centered and self-care, Service design application of Smart Healthcare for the elderly became valuable. Smart Healthcare is a healthcare service provided through the fusion of ICT technologies including mobile/wearable devices, IoT, big data, and information technology, and it is utilized to prevent diseases managing abundant health information and living habits. As a methodology for delivering such Smart Healthcare to the elderly, Service design can be adopted. Therefore, this study would like to present the perquisites of Smart Healthcare design for the elderly through analyzing the results from in-depth interview methods between the elderly and medical staff. As a result of this study, guidelines for Service design application of health vulnerability management for the elderly utilizing smart phones were presented. Therefore, this study presented four prerequisites composed of 'high level of supplementation and ethical decision making', 'improvement of inequality in accessibility and experience', 'resolving problems in policy implementation' and 'user-friendliness' for the Smart Healthcare service design for the elderly. Overall, Service design is expected to play an innovative role in improving the quality of life for the elderly through the process of collecting and delivering information on Smart Healthcare centered on the experience of the elderly.

최근 고령 사회에서는 지역사회중심의료로의 전환에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 이에 일반 노인과 취약계층 노인 각각에 대해 기능중심의 건강상태를 파악하고, 이를 기반으로 의료서비스 이용 경험 및 요구 인식에 대해 살펴보는 것은 필요하다. 본 연구는 2016년 11월부터 12월까지 서울시 일개지역에 거주하는 65세 이상 노인을 방문하여 구조화된 설문을 통해 노인의 건강기능 상태와 의료서비스 이용 행태를 파악하였다. 취약계층 노인은 일반 노인보다 인지기능, 영양, 통증, 낙상 등에서 기능적 건강상태 저하를 더 많이 경험하는 것으로 나타났다. 인지기능, 영양과 같은 기능적 건강문제를 경험한 일반 노인은 취약계층보다 유의하게 의료서비스를 이용하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 취약계층 노인은 통증 건강문제 영역에 있어서는 일반 노인보다 의료서비스 이용의 필요성을 더 유의하게 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 지역사회 노인을 대상으로 공공 서비스 확대의 방향과 범위를 설정함에 있어, 일반 노인과 취약계층 노인 간에는 차별화된 정책이 설정되어야 함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 취약계층의 의료접근성 향상을 위해서는 경제적 장벽으로 인해 필요한 의료이용의 장애가 초래되지 않도록 공공의료기관의 적극적인 지원이 이루어져야 하겠다.

Purpose: This study tries to comprehend older adults' perspectives of community supports and health services in a South Korean city and identify important sociodemographic and health characteristics that affect their perspectives. Methods: 166 older adults were involved in this cross-sectional study. Questions on background characteristics and community supports and health services criteria (categorized as service accessibility, offer of services, voluntary support, or emergency care planning) based upon the WHO's Age-Friendly Cities Guide were used. The data were analyzed using paired and independent t-tests, one-way ANOVA, and hierarchical multiple regression analyses. Results: emergency care planning was rated as the most important by the participants (mean age=76.24 years, 22.9% male), while its current level of performance was lowly appraised (p<.001). The rated importance for each category differed based on individual characteristics. Depression (p=.016), older age (p=.012), and restricted network type (p=.039) were significantly related to ascribing a higher degree of importance to community services. Conclusion: Community initiatives are warranted to optimize emergency care for older adults. This planning must be based on the unique characteristics of older adults in coordination with supportive resources. In addition, comprehensive assessments are warranted before implementing action plans to ensure that the multi-dimensional problems of older adults are incorporated.

On September 12, 2018, President Jae-In Moon announced the Comprehensive Plan for Lifelong Care for People with Developmental Disabilities, with representatives from the associated government branches (Ministry of Health and Welfare, Ministry of Education, and Ministry of Employment and Labor) in attendance. The goals of this plan are to provide health, medical, rehabilitative, special education, and social welfare services according to the life-stages of the affected individuals; to reduce parental pressure; to promote social interventions; and to enhance community-level participation in order to create a 'welfare society in harmony.' However, in order for the plan to succeed, additional efforts must be made in the following areas. First, an epidemiological survey is needed to understand the scale, prevalence, and incidence of developmental disabilities and to establish an evidence base to support policy development. Second, accurate definitions of developmental disabilities must be established in order to avoid policy discrimination based on impairment type and age. Third, personal evaluations to assess disabled individuals' unmet needs and customized service designs to deliver those needs are required. Fourth, the plan must fulfill the goals of accessibility and fairness that the government intends to provide. Fifth, the government should consider an integrated financial support system and to propose a detailed plan for monetary distributions. Finally, an integrated system that links health, medical, employment, educational, and welfare services must be constructed.

Native and acetylated soybean protein with acetylation percentage of $25\%$ were incubated with glucose to induce Maillard reaction. Acetylation of ${\varepsilon}$-amino group of lysine residues changed the conformation of soybean protein. The direct uv spectrum of native and acetylated soybean protein showed conformational changes with accessibility of tyrosine and tryptophan residues increased. Acetylation suppressed Maillard reaction between soybean protein and glucose. Acetylated soybean protein showed improved water sorption, fat binding, foam formation, and emulsion activity of the protein, but depressed brown pigment development and trypsin digestion. Thus aceylation prevented deterioration of certain functional characteristics that occurred during storage, besides causing functional characteristics to be improved on its own.
