Purpose: This study is descriptive survey research on the analysis of nurses' perception of the 4th industrial revolution and the importance and performance of future core nursing competencies in a tertiary hospital located in Seoul. Methods: Data were collected from 149 nurses with more than a year of work experience and analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, and Importance Performance Analysis(IPA) with the IBM SPSS/WIN 25.0 program. Results: The nurses' perception of the 4th industrial revolution was 3.23±0.71 out of 5 points. The importance of future core nursing competencies was 4.31±0.48, and the performance of it was 3.47±0.54. The analysis results of IPA showed that A (area of continuous maintenance) included critical thinking, problem-solving skills, teamwork and collaboration, evidence-based practice, communication, quality improvement and safety, professionalism, self-regulation and self-management, and personal literacy. The specific competencies were not included in B (area of priority improvement). Creativity, informatics, healthcare policy, leadership, research ability, and continuing education were included in C (area of progressive improvement). Knowledge and patient-centered care, ability to manage resources as well as professional, legal, and ethical responsibility were included in D (area of overinvestment). Conclusion: The nurses seemed not to be fully prepared for the 4th industrial revolution. However, they were well aware of the importance of the future core nursing competencies. Therefore, if nurses increase the performance of core competencies in order of priority according to the IPA results, they will be able to independently lead the changing nursing field.

Purposes: This research is conducted to identify main features and trends of mission, vision and core values in Korean tertiary general hospitals by using text-mining. Methodology: For the study, 45 mission, 112 vision and 190 core values are collected from 45 tertiary general hospitals' homepages in 2022 and use word frequency analysis and Leyword co-occurrence analysis. Findings: In the tertiary general hospitals' mission, there are high frequency words such as 'health', 'humanity', 'medical treatment', 'education', 'research', 'happiness', 'love', 'best', 'spirit', and mission mainly includes the content of contributing humanity's health and happiness with these words. In case of vision, high frequency words are 'hospital', 'medical treatment', 'research', 'lead', 'trust', 'centered', 'patient', 'best', 'future'. By using these words in vision, it represents the definition and characteristics of vision such as ideal organizations in the future, goals and targets. As a result of the Leyword co-occurrence analysis, vision includes the content of 'high-tech medical treatment', 'special care for patients', 'leading education and research', 'the highest trust with customer', 'creative talents training'. -astly, the high frequency word-pairs in core values are 'social distribution', 'innovation pursuit', 'cooperation and harmony', and it defines standards of behavior for organizations. Practical Implication: To correct the problems of vision, mission and core values from findings, firstly, it needs for Korean tertiary general hospitals to use the words that can explain organization's identity and differentiate others in their mission. Secondly, considering strengthening the role of hospitals in their community and the importance of members in organizations, it is necessary to establish vision with considering community and members to activate vision effectively. Thirdly, because there are no specific guidelines of establishing mission, vision and core values for healthcare organizations, this research concepts and results could be utilized when other organizations establish mission, vision and core values.

The change of society has brought about various health problems which have become to demand comprehensive health services not only for individuals but also for families and communities as the unit. To meet the societal needs W Hospital in a rural Korea established a Department of Community Health Nursing Services and provided nursing services to patients under a early discharge program. This study is to evaluate the community health nursing services carried out the department in general, and has following specific objectives : 1. To learn attitude of the consumers and the "referees" toward early discharge program. 2. To find out attitude toward home care and cure services. 3. To find out the consumers and the "Referees" attitude toward the 15 selected home cue and cure activities by public health nurse. 4. To investigate possibility of charging fee for the 15 selected home care and cure activities by public health nurse. Three different study population were chosen: namely the consumer, the "referee" I and II. Excluding families moved out and not able to be contacted, the total families (77) referred to the department during the study period of September 1974 - December 1975 are defined as the consumer. Thirty seven nurses among 81 nurses who have been working in W Hospital since the inception of the Community Health Nursing Service Program were randomly selected. Thirty two nurses were defined as the "referee"I, because 5 questionnaires were not able to be collected. Twenty four doctors out of 37 who have been working since the Community Health Nursing Service Program started, and who were able to contact were called as the "referee" II. Data collection method employed for the consumers was direct interviewing with preposed interview schedules, and for the "referees"questionnaire method was utilized. x$^2$test and 100-percentage were employed in analyzing the data. The study findings are follows: 1. Attitude toward early discharge: Above 85% of the consumers and the "referees" approved the early discharge: Above 85% of the consumers and the "referees" approved the early discharge program. 2. Attitude toward the home care and cure services: Above 75% of the consumers and the "referees" showed positive attitude toward the home care and cure services by public health nurses. 3. Attitude toward 15 selected home care and curative activities by public health nurses: On the average more than 50% of the consumers and the "referees" expressed an affirmative attitude to perform 15 selected home care and cure services by public health nurses. 4. Attitude toward charging fee for 15 selected home care and curative activities by public health nurses: Above 85% of the consumers thought that they would pay for the services. Only 12.8% of the consumers and 5% of the "referees" what to have the services for nothing. Based upon the findings of this study; That is, the home care and cure services to be given by public health nurse were positively responded by the consumers and the pro-fissionable, one can conclude that the services provided by the Department of Community Health Nursing Service of W Hospital have been well accepted, and that early discharge program of hospital is believed to be a means to lessen the expenses of patients from hospitalization and to promote recovery from illness. It is recommended that hospital centered cure services should be reconsidered and scrutinized to meet community health needs. NOTE : "referees" are nurses and doctors who refer the early discharged Patient to the Department of Community Health Nursing Service.

Objectives: The Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS), which analyzes and uses electronic health records (EHR) for medical care, pursues patient-centered medical care. It is necessary to establish the CDSS in Korean medical services for objectification and standardization. For this purpose, analyses were performed on the points to be followed for CDSS implementation with a focus on herbal medicine prescription. Methods: To establish the CDSS in the prescription of Traditional Korean Medicine, the current prescription practices of Traditional Korean Medicine doctors were analyzed. We also analyzed whether the prescription support function of the electronic chart was implemented. A questionnaire survey was conducted querying Traditional Korean Medicine doctors working at Traditional Korean Medicine clinics and hospitals, to investigate their desired CDSS functions, and their perceived effects on herbal medicine prescription. The implementation of the CDSS among the audit software developers used by the Korean medical doctors was examined. Results: On average, 41.2% of Traditional Korean Medicine doctors working in Traditional Korean Medicine clinics manipulated 1 to 4 herbs, and 31.2% adjusted 4 to 7 herbs. On average, 52.5% of Traditional Korean Medicine doctors working in Traditional Korean Medicine hospitals adjusted 1 to 4 herbs, and 35.5% adjusted 4 to 7 herbs. Questioning the desired prescription support function in the electronic medical record system, the Traditional Korean Medicine doctors working at Korean medicine clinics desired information on 'medicine name, meridian entry, flavor of medicinals, nature of medicinals, efficacy,' 'herb combination information' and 'search engine by efficacy of prescription.' The doctors also desired compounding contraindications (eighteen antagonisms, nineteen incompatibilities) and other contraindicatory prescriptions, 'medicine information' and 'prescription analysis information through basic constitution analyses.' The implementation of prescription support function varied by clinics and hospitals. Conclusion: In order to implement and utilize the CDSS in a medical service, clinical information must be generated and managed in a standardized form. For this purpose, standardization of terminology, coding of prescriptions using a combination of herbal medicines, and unification such as the preparation method and the weights and measures should be integrated.

세계적으로 노인인구 급증으로 병용약물이 늘어나고, 의료기술의 발달에 따라 다양한 질병 상태의 해소를 위한 약물사용이 늘어나고 있어, 약물의 효과적이고 안전한 사용을 위해 약사의 전문지식에 대한 기대 및 요구는 점차 높아지고 있다. 이에 우리나라는 지난 2009년부터 기존 4년 교육이 아닌 6년제로 약학대학의 학제를 개편하였으며, 고도화된 약료서비스의 제공을 위해 준비된 전문인력을 배출하고 있다. 그러나 현행 국민건강보험 급여체계는 여전히 전통적 약사의 역할인 조제를 중심으로 산정되어, 약사가 제공하거나 제공 가능한 서비스와, 실제로 지급되는 보상급여 간 극심한 간극이 존재하고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 약료서비스 지불보상제도의 국제적 동향을 비교분석하여, 현행 한국의 지불보상체계에 시사점을 주고자 하였다. 한국과 일본, 영국 및 미국의 약사서비스 지불보상정책 및 관련 문헌을 검토한 결과, 일본, 영국 및 미국의 시스템은 환자중심의 약료서비스에 대해 제도적으로 구체적이고 다양한 지불수단을 마련하여 보상하고 있으나, 한국의 약국 서비스는 상대적으로 조제관련 행위만 보상하는 정도에 그치고 있어, 국내 약료서비스의 발전을 구조적으로 저해하는 결과를 낳고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로, 안전한 약물사용을 위한 환자중심 약료서비스의 제공을 위해서는 국내 지불보상체계가 인정하는 약료서비스의 범위를 확대하고 관련 서비스의 종류를 다양화하여 국내 약사급여제도를 개선시켜나갈 필요가 있다.

It has been forty years since the implementation of National Health Insurance (NHI) in South Korea. Following the 1977 legislature mandating medical insurance for employees and dependents in firms with more than 500 employees, South Korea expanded its health insurance to urban residents in 1989. Resultantly, total expenses of the National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) have greatly increased from 4.5 billion won in 1977 to 50.89 trillion won in 2016. With multiple insurers merging into the NHI system in 2000, a single-payer healthcare system emerged, along with separation policy of prescribing and dispensing. Following such reform, an emerging financial crisis required injections from the National Health Promotion Fund. Forty years following the introduction of the NHI system, both praise and criticism have been drawn. In just 12 years, the NHI achieved the fastest health population coverage in the world. Current medical expenditure is not high relative to the rest of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. The quality of acute care in Korea is one of the best in the world. There is no sign of delayed diagnosis and/or treatment for most diseases. However, the NHI has been under-insured, requiring high-levels of out-of-pocket money from patients and often causing catastrophic medical expenses. Furthermore, the current environmental circumstances of the NHI are threatening its sustainability. Low birth rate decline, as well as slow economic growth, will make sustainment of the current healthcare system difficult in the near future. An aging population will increase the amount of medical expenditure required, especially with the baby-boomer generation of those born between 1955 and 1965. Meanwhile, there is always the problem of unification for the Korean Peninsula, and what role the health insurance system will have to play when it occurs. In the presidential election, health insurance is a main issue; however, there is greater focus on expansion and expenditure than revenue. Many aspects of Korea's NHI system (1977) were modeled after the German (1883) and Japanese (1922) systems. Such systems were created during an era where infections disease control was most urgent and thus, in the current non-communicable disease (NCD) era, must be redesigned. The Korean system, which is already forty years old, must be redesigned completely. Although health insurance benefit expansion is necessary, financial measures, as well as moral hazard control measures, must also be considered. Ultimately, there are three aspects that we must consider when attempting redesign of the system. First, the health security system must be reformed. NHI and Medical Aid must be amalgamated into one system for increased effectiveness and efficiency of the system. Within the single insurer system of the NHI must be an internal market for maximum efficiency. The NHIS must be separated into regions so that regional organizers have greater responsibility over their actions. Although insurance must continue to be imposed nationally, risk-adjustment must be distributed regionally and assessed by different regional systems. Second, as a solution for the decreasing flow of insurance revenue, low premium level must be increased to an appropriate level. Likewise, the national reserve fund (No. 36, National Health Insurance Act) must be enlarged for re-unification preparation. Third, there must be revolutionary reform of benefit package. The current system built a focus on communicable diseases which is inappropriate in this NCD era. Medical benefits must not be one-time events but provide chronic disease management. Chronic care models, accountable care organization, patient-centered medical homes, and other systems that introduce various benefit packages for beneficiaries must be implemented. The reimbursement system of medical costs should be introduced to various systems for different types of care, as is the case with part C (Medicare Advantage Program) of America's Medicare system that substitutes part A and part B. Pay for performance must be expanded so that there is not only improvement in quality of care but also medical costs. Moreover, beneficiaries of the NHI system must be aware of the amount of their expenditure through a deductible payment system so that spending can be profiled and monitored. The Moon Jae-in Government has announced its plans to expand the NHI system; however, it is important that a discussion forum is created so that more accurate analysis of the NHI, its environments, and current status of health care system, can take place for reforming NHI.

목적: Critical pathway (CP)는 특정질환 표준화를 통해 적정한 진료 및 최소한의 표준진료를 행하여 진료의 질을 높이고 비용을 감소시켜 환자 및 의료진의 만족도를 높이기 위해 시도되고 있다. 본 연구는 위암수술 환자에서 CP를 개발 및 적용하고 이를 통해 치료결과의 향상을 이룰 수 있는지 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2003년 10월부터 2004년 8월까지 가톨릭대학교 의과대학 강남성모병원에서 위암으로 수술 받은 185명의 환자 중 타장기 원발암이 없고, 근치적절제술을 시행 받은 환자 117예에서, CP를 적용한 26예와 동기간 동안 CP를 적용하지 않은 환자 91예의 임상적 특성, 수술 후 경과, 진료비용, 입원기간 및 환자 91예의 임상적 특성, 수술 후 경과, 진료비용, 임원기간 및 환자 만족도 등을 비교하여 위암수술에서 CP의 유용성을 알아보았다. CP를 개발하기 위하여 진료, 간호, 원무, 영양과 등이 참여하는 팀을 구성하여 외래검사 흐름도, 수술 전, 후 처방지, 경과기록 등을 표준화한 프로토콜을 작성하였다. 결과: CP환자 26명 중 1명은 십이지장 단단부 누출로, 1명은 술 후 위정체로 인한 장기 입원 및 재수술이 불가피 하여 제외되어 최종 분석된 환자는 24명이었다. 24명의 환자 중 8명에서 재원기간의 지연으로 인한 변이가 발생하였는데 6명은 환자가 자의적으로 퇴원을 거부하여 수술후 $1\∼2$일이 지연되었으며, 1명은 술 후 위정체로 2일 지연되었고, 1명은 수술 후 중환자실 입원 및 관찰기간이 필요하여 4일간 지연되어 변이율(variance rate)은 8/26 ($30.8\%$)였다. 평균 재원기간은 CPrns은 11.3일($10\∼15$일)이었고, Non-CP군은 17.5일($9\∼68$일)로 CPrns이 약 6일 짧았다(P<0.05), 술 후 평균 재원기간의 경우 CP군과 Non-CP군 각각 8.3일($7\∼12$일), 10.3일($7\~68$일)로 차이가 있으나 통계적으로 유의하지는 않았다(P>0.05). 양 군에서의 재원기간 중 총 진료비는 CP군이 평균 4,863,685원, Non-CP군이 평균 6,292,200원으로 CP군의 진료비가 낮았으나, 일당 진료비는 CP군은 430,414원, Non-CP군에서 높았음을 알 수 있었다(P<0.05). 13가지 항목의 만족도 조사에서도 CP군이 Non-CP군에 비해 높았다(P<0.05). 결론: 저자들이 개발하여 위암수술 환자에 적용한 CP 프로그램은 재원기간을 줄이고 총 진료비를 감소시킨 반면 일일 진료비의 상승과 환자 및 의료진의 만족도를 높일 수 있었다. 향후 다기관이 참여하는 전향적인 연구를 통해 보다 적절한 표준진료지침을 개발하여 그 효용성을 객관화 시켜야 할 것으로 사료된다.
