본 연구는 노인장기요양보험제도 도입 전후 의료기관 가정간호사업소 수 및 이용량 변화를 파악하고자 하였다. 건강보험심사평가원으로부터 노인장기요양보험제도 도입 직전 1년(2007.7.1~2008.6.30)과 제도도입 후 혼란기인 6개월 후 1년(2009.1.1-12.30)간 의료기관 가정간호 기본방문료(AN100)가 청구된 자료를 받아 분석하였다. 노인장기요양보험제도 도입 후, 약 40개 의료기관 가정간호사업소가 문을 닫았고, 사업소가 한 곳도 없는 시군구가 전체 시군구 중 53%에서 59%로 증가하였다. 또한, 노인의 의료기관 가정간호 이용은 물론(이용자수 13.4% 감소, 방문건수 20.9% 감소), 비노인의 이용도 감소하였다(이용자수 3.5% 감소, 방문건수 3.9% 감소). 비노인의 가정간호 이용감소는 가정방문 간호사업소의 감소로 가정간호에 대한 접근이 낮아져 나타난 결과로 유추할 수 있다. 가정간호사업소 당 총 수입액은 2009년 1년간 평균 121,850천원으로 최소 인력인 가정전문간호사 2인의 인건비를 감안하면 수익이 크지 않은 것으로 확인되었다. 이 연구결과를 통해 노인의 의료기관 가정 간호 이용감소는 노인장기요양보험 방문간호로 대체된다고 하더라도, 비노인의 가정간호 접근성을 높이기 위해서는 의료기관 가정간호사업소를 확대할 필요가 있다.

Background: External-cause mortality is an important public health issue worldwide. Considering its significance to workers' health and inequalities across industries, we aimed to describe the state of external-cause mortality and investigate its difference by industry in Republic of Korea based on data for 2018. Methods: Data obtained from the Statistics Korea and Korean Employment Information System were used. External causes of death were divided into three categories (suicide, transport accident, and others), and death occurred during employment period or within 90 days after unemployment was regarded as workers' death. We calculated age- and sex-standardized mortalities per 100,000, standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) compared to the general population and total workers, and mortality rate ratios (RRs) across industries using information and communication as a reference. Correlation analyses between income, education, and mortality were conducted. Results: Age- and sex-standardized external-cause mortality per 100,000 in all workers was 29.4 (suicide: 16.2, transport accident: 6.6, others: 6.6). Compared to the general population, all external-cause and suicide SMRs were significantly lower; however, there was no significant difference in transport accidents. When compared to total workers, wholesale, transportation, and business facilities management showed higher SMR for suicide, and agriculture, forestry, and fishing, mining and quarrying, construction, transportation and storage, and public administration and defense showed higher SMR for transport accidents. A moderate to strong negative correlation was observed between education level and mortality (both age- and sex-standardized mortality rates and SMR compared to the general population). Conclusion: Inequalities in external-cause mortalities from suicide, transport accidents, and other causes were found. For reducing the differences, improved policies are needed for industries with higher mortalities.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the mediating effect of informatization level between characteristics of introducing information system and organizational performance in hospital settings, and to provide suggestions to improve the performance level of strategic information system of hospitals. In order to achieve study purpose, a causal path model was developed and empirically tested. Data were collected from 746 managers of 92 hospitals keeping information system in Busan, Ulsan and Kyungnam Province using self-administered structured questionnaire. Major results of this study were as follows; The results of the path analysis showed that organizational characteristics variables except informatization strength within health industry had significant effects on informatization level, and had indirect effects on organizational performance mediated by informatization level. On the other hand, informatization level, especially revelation capability among informatization level variables, was found to have significant direct effect on organizational performance. These results of empirical test imply that informatization level variables are both important affecting factors on organizational performance and mediating factors between organizational characteristics and organizational performance. Therefore, in order to increase organizational performance, measures improving informatization level should be developed and carried out continuously. And, especially, focusing on building and strengthening revelation capability is crucial to those efforts.
