Through diversification of 4th industries and transportation and globalization, tourism was developed for medical purposes, not limited to touring tourist attractions. The trend of medical tourism in Korea is shifting from large and medium-sized hospitals to professional medical services in one area of small hospitals rather than professional medical services. However, small hospitals lack medical coordinators and interpretation services, and tourists who visit Korea for treatment lack information on small hospitals. Therefore, a platform is needed to match small hospitals with medical tourists. In this study, using Platform as a Service (Paas) in cloud computing, clinic administrators can access the app to introduce information about their hospitals with simple manipulations. Tourists also want to propose a customized platform to select the right area for them to check information about small-scale hospitals and choose the treatment and tourist attractions they wants. In this study, using Platform as a Service (Paas) in cloud computing, clinic administrators can access the app to introduce information about their hospitals with simple manipulations.

전염병 발생의 잠재적 위험은 지구촌 사회의 시대를 맞이하여 심각하게 증가하였다. 그러나 여러 국가들의 다양한 정부기관에서 전염병에 대한 지방자치단체의 대응계획은 적절한 수준으로 준비되어 있지 않은 실정이다. 인류는 의료 및 공중보건에서 괄목할만한 성장을 이룩해왔다. 그러나 SARS는 아직도 막대한 인명손실을 야기시킬 수 있는 잠재력을 가진 매우 위험한 전염병으로 남아있다. 2002년 11월부터 2003년 7월까지 SARS는 전세계적으로 8,096건의 사례가 발생하였으며 774명의 사망자와 9.6%의 사망률을 결과하였다(WHO, 2004). 이는 대표적인 보건재난 중 하나이다. 중국이 전세계에서 발생한 총 SARS사례의 약 66%를 점유한 결과 이웃국가인 한국의 관광산업은 심각한 영향을 받게 되었다. 본 연구의 목적은 한국의 입국자 자료의 주요요소를 파악하고, SARS발생기간 동안 한국에 입국한 일본과 대만 관광객의 수요변화가 한국의 관광산업에 미친 경제적 영향을 분석하는 것이다. 본 연구의 결과로서 일본, 미국, 중국, 대만의 4개 국가 입국자들의 계절적, 장기적 추세를 파악할 수 있었으며 한국 관광산업에 대한 SARS의 직 간접적 영향을 분석할 수 있었다.

의료관광은 의료서비스와 관광을 동시에 제공받기 위해 해외로 방문하는 것을 의미한다. 즉, 의료서비스와 다양한 문화 활동, 레저, 쇼핑 등을 접목한 관광 활동이라고 할 수 있다. 이처럼 의료관광이란 단순한 의료서비스에 국한하지 않고 관광 서비스와 융합되어 새로운 수익을 창출하는 신 고부가가치 산업으로 많은 국가들이 해외 관광객 유치를 통해 자국의 관광산업을 육성하기 위하여 지속적인 노력을 기울이고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 우리나라의 의료관광산업 중 치과의료서비스에 있어서 경쟁력을 확보하기 위해서 치과의사의 진료, 병원의 시설, 치과의 스텝, 환자의 만족도 사이에 어떠한 연관성이 있는지를 살펴보고자 하였다. 그 결과 치과의사의 진료는 병원의 시설 치과의 스텝, 환자의 만족 모두에 긍정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다.
