Method: The subjects were the home care service recipients aged 65 and older in 172 hospital-based, home care agencies registered in Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service in January, 2007. The data were collected using a questionnaire from March 16 to April 15, 2007. The questionnaire return rate was 43.8%. Result: The hospital-based home care agencies were able to visit 66.5% of the national administrative districts. Of the home care service recipients, over 50% were 65 years old and older. About 43% of the agencies reported that over 50% of their patients would be subject to the long-term care insurance.

Objectives: This study was conducted to prepare basic data to propose the necessity and utilization of oral welfare products in the welfare services of the long-term care insurance system, focusing on facility workers working in elderly facilities. Methods: The analysis was conducted on 144 workers working at some local elderly facilities. The questionnaire was constructed by classifying the use of oral welfare tools into 6 questions and the necessity and demand for oral welfare devices into 13 questions. Frequency analysis and technical analysis were performed for data analysis, and one-way ANOVA was performed for differences in the necessity and demand for oral welfare equipment. The statistical significance level was p<0.05. Results: As a result of examining the awareness of the necessity and demand for oral welfare equipment among workers in elderly facilities, the awareness of the necessity of including oral welfare equipment in the items of welfare equipment in the current long-term care insurance system was high at 4.15 points. As a result of analyzing the correlation between awareness of care products and the need and demand for oral welfare equipment, it was confirmed that there was a statistically significant positive correlation (p<0.01). Conclusions: In the long-term care insurance system for the elderly, oral welfare products need to be considered for welfare equipment services. The provision of oral welfare products within the long-term care insurance system for the elderly can provide opportunities and services to select various self-care tools. In addition, it is expected that it will be possible to promote changes in the long-term care insurance system for the elderly and to improve the system in a variety of positive ways.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to provide information on the extent and variations of elderly residents' nursing care needs, and provision of nursing care across long term care facilities. Methods: A nationwide survey was conducted on nurse managers from 1,041 long term care facilities, by e-mail or fax, from August 16 to September 30 in 2017. A self-reported questionnaire consisting of 5 domains was used to collect data. Results: Facilities with more than 30 residents were more likely to need skilled nursing services and to obtain the nursing staff such as a registered nurse and a nurse's aide. Awareness and satisfaction of hospital-based home nursing care was high in all facilities. In addition, there are some differences in nurse managers' perceptions of the level of healthcare resources and required action by facility size. Nurse managers of senior congregate housings were more likely to have considerable difficulty in dealing with healthcare needs of residents and recognizing the healthcare resource shortage. A majority of nurse managers agreed on the need to employ a registered nurse. Conclusion: This study confirmed that it is essential to increase nurse staffing level and to reform the long term care insurance for enhancing the accessibility of healthcare services, especially for the residents in small long term care facilities. There is also a need to provide diverse education and training opportunities for nursing staff working in long term care facilities.

본 논문은 기초생활보장수급자를 대상으로 장기요양서비스 이용 여부가 의료 이용에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위한 서술적 연구이다. 연구 대상은 장기요양 1등급 판정을 받은 기초생활보장수급자 5,834명을 대상으로 하였다. 기초생활보장수급자의 의료 이용에 미치는 영향을 다중회귀분석으로 분석한 결과 2007-2009년 총 진료비 변화량을 설명하는 $R^2$은 22.6%이었으며, 장기요양 서비스 이용자에 비해 미이용자는 8,297,329원 증가하였다(${\beta}=.29$, p< .001). 입원일 변화량의 $R^2$은 22.4%이었으며, 서비스 이용자에 비해 미이용자는 119.013일 증가하였다(${\beta}=.33$, p< .001). 총 진료비와 입원일 변화량에 영향을 미치는 요인은 장기요양서비스 이용 여부, 수발자 여부, 2009년 일상생활수행능력, 간호처치, 재활기능이 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 장기요양 서비스 미이용자의 의료 이용이 높게 나타남에 따라 미이용자에 대한 적정 의료와 요양서비스 이용을 지원할 수 있는 정책 마련이 필요로 된다.

노인장기요양보험에서 가장 중요한 이슈는 급여대상자의 희망, 건강 및 기능상태에 따라 어떤 급여를 제공할 것인가 이다. 이를 해결하고자 노인장기요양보험의 보험자인 국민건강보험 공단은 급여대상자에게 '표준장기요양이용계획서'를 제공하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 표준장기요양이용계획 작성의 효율화 방안을 마련하고자 노인장기요양보험 3차 시범사업 표준이용계획 자료를 활용하여 노인장기요양급여 권고모형을 개발하였다. 모형개발에는 데이터마이닝의 의사결정나무모형, 로지스틱회귀모형, 앙상블 모형의 배깅과 부스팅 기법을 사용하였고, 이 중 실무자가 이해하기 쉬운 의사결정나무를 채택하여 권고모형을 설명 하였다. 본 연구는 노인장기요양보험 제도의 이용계획 수립의 객관성 및 과학성을 확보하고 이용계획 업무를 효율화하는 데에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

Purpose: To develop the patient classification system based on the resource utilization for reimbursement of long-term care hospitals in Korea. Method: Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service (HIRA) conducted a survey in July 2006 that included 2,899 patients from 35 long-term care hospitals. To calculate resource utilization, we measured care time of direct care staff (physicians, nursing personnel, physical and occupational therapists, social workers). The survey of patient characteristics included ADL, cognitive and behavioral status, diseases and treatments. Major category criteria was developed by modified delphi method from 9 experts. Each category was divided into 2-3 groups by ADL using tree regression. Relative resource use was expressed as a case mix index (CMI) calculated as a proportion of mean resource use. Result: This patient classification system composed of 6 major categories (ultra high medical care, high medical care, medium medical care, behavioral problem, impaired cognition and reduced physical function) and 11 subgroups by ADL score. The differences of CMI between groups were statistically significant (p<.0001). Homogeneity of groups was examined by total coefficient of variation (CV) of CMI. The range of CV was 29.68-40.77%. Conclusions: This patient classification system is feasible for reimbursement of long-term care hospitals.

Background: This article reviewed the current status of home-based physical therapy infrastructure in long term care insurance and then solved the problem. Method: We used two forms of data that were acquired from ⅰ) the Ministry of Health & Welfare and the Family and National Health Insurance Corporation, ⅱ) a home-visiting health care program, and ⅲ) evaluation data from the Korea Health Industry Development Institute. The home-based physical therapy program was then analyzed. Results: The role and concept of home-based physical therapy was not clearly established. There were few home-based physical therapy programs in the community. The manpower of home-based physical therapists in the home-visiting health care program was very low. The role between home-visiting nurses (caregivers) and home-based physical therapists was mixed. Research and promotion regarding home-based physical therapy was poor. Conclusion: To establish a system of legal, long-term care insurance, we must increase the manpower of home-based physical therapists and the amount of research pertaining to the demand for home-based physical therapy.
