The National Health Insurance (NHI) has been the main body of health care system in Korea for the last 30 years since the NHI was founded. However, the inefficient management and strong regulations of the NHI have hindered the development of health care industry. The establishment of the MB government, whose interest lies on economic growth rather than equity, is expected to help the health care services gain a momentum. The essential measures that can step up public health care services overall are the following: the introduction of competition within NHI, the activation of private health care insurance, and the allowance of for-profit hospital. The private-public mix with market mechanism would level up the health care service for the public.

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to analyze the demand and supply of advanced practice nurses and suggest alternative benefit strategies in the Korean national health insurance. Methods: A revised demand & supply model was used to estimate the excess supply of APNs, and policy making process and key actors in the Korean health insurance were considered to develop a political approach to the APN issue. Results: The social demand for APNs is currently estimated to be less than 50% of its supply and the APN education program fell into difficulties in recruits. No reimbursement mechanism for APN's services in the national health insurance has given no economic incentive to hospital managers who have monopsony power in nursing labor market, which has caused the demand shortage of APNs in hospital industry. Payment for APN's services recognized as one of the most significant strategies to booster the social demand for APN's services should be carefully designed and implemented in the national health insurance. In line with this, key actors in health insurance policy decision-making include government, national assembly, labor unions, NGOs, civic groups, medical associations, and academia. Conclusion: The basic researches for APN's activities and cost-effectiveness analysis in clinical settings are required to support the strategies aforementioned. Constructing a policy network among key actors is able to make the payment strategy feasible, which will increase the socal demand for APNs.

본 연구는 FTA 확산시대에 한중FTA에 있어 문제가 될 수 있는 수출보험제도에 대해 양국 수출기업의 만족도를 살펴보았다. 본 연구를 통해 한국과 중국의 수출보험제도에 대한 특징을 살펴보고 이를 바탕으로 양국 수출보험제도 이용자들의 만족도를 조사하였다. 수출신용보험제도에 대한 만족도를 살펴보았다. 신용에 대한 인식(3.53), 수출지역에 대한 인식(3.38), 위험관리방법에 대한 인식(3.29), 시장변화에 대한 인식(3.14), 보험사고에 대한 인식(3.24), 규제에 대한 인식(3.03)은 수출보험제도에 대해 긍 정적인 만족도를 보였으나, 제품불량에 대한 인식(2.97)은 비교적 만족하지 못하고 있었다. 한국과 중국의 수출제도의 차별성이 존재하기에 직접적 비교는 어렵다는 한계는 가지고 있으나, 본 연구를 통해 다양한 수출보험 상품의 필요성을 제시할 수 있으며, 한국과 중국의 수출기업들은 대체적으로 수출보험상품에 만족도가 높은 것으로 나타났다.

한국(韓國)의 의료보험제도(醫療保險制度)는 일본제도(日本制度)를 거울삼아 서둘러 적용대상자(適用對象者)를 확대하여 1989년 전국민의료보험(全國民醫療保險)을 달성하였으나 제도(制度)와 효율적(效率的) 운영(運營)을 위한 장치가 결여되어 있고 직장(職場), 공교(公敎), 지역의보간(地域醫保間)에 형평문제(衡平問題) 제기되는 등 구조적인 과제를 안고 있다. 앞으로 제도(制度)의 개혁추진(改革推進) 노력으로 이 분야의 정책수립(政策樹立)과 집행(執行) 에 있어서 경직성을 줄이고 비용효과적(費用效果的)인 의료이용(醫療利用)을 도모해 나가지 못할 경우 낭비요인(浪費要因)이 점점 더 크게 불어나 국민의료비(國民醫療費)가 계속적으로 급속히 증대될 전망이다. 이와 같은 제도(制度)의 질적개선(質的改善)의 필요성에 비추어 최근 네덜란드가 시도하고 있는 제도개혁(制度改革)은 우리에게 여러가지 귀중한 교훈을 던져주고 있다고 판단된다. 네덜란드의 개혁안은 시장경쟁원리(市場競爭原理)를 폭넓게 수용하여 제도(制度)의 능률(能率)을 높이고 의료비(醫療費)를 절감하려는 취지를 담고 있다. 특히 의보가입자(醫保加入者)가 보험자(保險者)를 선택할 수 있고 또한 보험자(保險者)가 의료기관(醫療機關)을 선택할 수 있도록 관계(關係) 집단간(集團間) 상호경쟁(相互競爭)을 유도함으로써 효율(效率)을 증진시켜 나가겠다는 정책방향이 뚜렷히 제시되고 있어 우리의 주목을 끌고 있다.

Backgrounds: Escalating pharmaceutical expenditure has threatened the sustainability of National Health Insurance system in Korea. Generic medicines allow patients to access safe, effective, high-quality medicines at low cost, thus insurers could achieve significant financial savings by promotion of generics, if they are priced much lower than the originator. The purpose of this study was to review generic pricing as well as promotion policies in other countries and assess the implication of those policies. Methods: We reviewed the main measures adopted by the developed countries such as Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, United Kingdom, especially in countries where governments are the largest third-party payers or insurance finance resource is the national health insurance. Results: The foreign countries's experience with generic medicine policy shows that demand-side policies such as physician budgets, international nonproprietary name prescribing, generics substitution, patients co-payment as well as supply-side policies relating to pricing and reimbursement seems to play a critical role in developing the generic medicines market. Conclusion: Various strategy should be implemented to promote generic drug use.

The research examines how interactions of financial literacy and peer effect indicators impact financial market participation of Vietnamese investors. In this research, financial literacy indicator is constructed from two levels, namely, basic financial literacy and advanced financial literacy. An empirical study was carried out by investigating 387 individuals who are currently working in finance-related areas such as banking, insurance and real estate industries. The findings indicate that individuals with higher level of financial literacy, specifically those with advanced financial literacy level, tend to participate in financial market. However, individuals with basic financial literacy level tend to walk away from financial market because the nexus between basic financial literacy and financial market participation is found negative statistically significant. The findings also suggest that peer effect and perceived financial literacy have a positive significant relationship with financial market participation. These findings remain robust after endogenous problem is addressed by employing instrument variable (IV) method, especially Ivprobit regression. Hence, these findings recommend that policy-makers should design and develop financial literacy programs, specifically at sophisticated level, to adapt and overtake the trend in financial innovation development. This should be done, not only on individual, but also national scale to ensure greater financial market participation.

The purpose of this study is to grasp the ripple effect of food industry, which is rising as the prominent industry of the future and has a high forward & backward ripple effect, on domestic economy and other industries through Industrial Input-Output Analysis and suggest the export connection method for the development of food industry in the future. As an analysis result, it was found that the effect on product inducement and employment inducement was very high. Like that, it is necessary to establish export connection strategy to escape from narrow domestic market and advance into world market in order to develop food industry, which has a high ripple effect on domestic market. For the export connection of food industry, it is possible to enlarge overseas market demand of domestic food industry by providing domestic food companies with export-concerned information such as overseas export market information and food market information, advertising world market for domestic food industry actively through the globalization of Korea food, securing food processing technology, removing export unavailability risk through the export insurance policy and advertizing the safety of food industry through the reinforcement of food safety control standard and penalty standard.
