This study examined the effects of referral requirements for insurance patients which have been enforced since July 1, 1989 when medical insurance coverage was extended to the whole population except beneficiaries of medical assistance program. The requirements are mainly aimed at discouraging the use of tertiary care hospitals by imposing restrictions on the patient's choice of a medical service facility. The expectation is that such change in the pattern of medical care utilization would produce several desirable effects including increased efficiency in patient care and balanced development of various types of medical service facilities. In this study, these effects were assessed by the change in the number of out-patient visits and bed-days per illness episode and the share of each type of facility in the volume of services and the amount of expenditures after the implementation of the new referral system. The data for analysis were obtained from the claims to the insurance for government and school employees. The sample was drawn from the claims for the patients treated during the first six months of 1989, prior to the enforcement of referral requirements, and those of the patients treated during the first six months of 1990, after the enforcement. The 1989 sample included 299,824 claims (3.6% of total) and the 1990 sample included 332,131 (3.7% of total). The data were processed to make the unit of analysis an illness episode instead of an insurance claim. The facilities and types of care utilized for a given illness episode are defined to make up the pathway of medical care utilization. This pathway was conceived of as a Markov Chain process for further analysis. The conclusion emerged from the analysis is that the enforcement of referral requirements resulted in less use of tertiary care hospitals, and thereby decreased the volume of services and the amount of insurance expenses per illness episode. However, there are a few points that have to be taken into account in relation to the conclusion. The new referral system is likely to increase the use of medical services not covered by insurance, so that its impact on national health expenditures would be different from that on insurance expenditures. The extension of insurance coverage must have inereased patient load for all types of medical service organizations, and this increase may be partly responsible for producing the effects attributed to the new referral system. For example, excessive patient load for tertiary care hospitals may lead to the transfer of their patients to other types of facilities. Another point is that the data for this study correspond to very early phase of the new system. But both patients and medical care providers would adapt themselves to the new system to avoid or overcome its disadvantages for them, so as that its effects could change over time. Therefore, it is still necessary to closely monitor the impact of the referral requirements.

The purpose of the study is exploring the relationship among patient perceived quality of dental care, satisfaction, and royalty in dental clinics and hospitals. The observation of the study is outpatient visiting dental clinics and hospitals located in Seoul and Kyung-Gi Do area, and surveyed the outpatients. The contents of the survey are consisted with questions including quality of care perceived by the patients, costumer satisfaction, and royalty, and measurement for each question is using five point Likert scale. According to result of bi-variate analysis, there was the significant relationship among specialized care, value of the care, and kindness in quality of dental services, level of care in dentists significantly influenced on costumer satisfaction and costumer royalty, and there was the significant relationship between costumer satisfaction and royalty. According to result of regression analysis on the costumer satisfaction, the costumer satisfaction positively related with the convenience of facility, specialized care, value of care, patient age, number of visit, and spend time for treatment, and housewives and self-employees were likely to satisfy on care than regular employees. By result of full regression model and reduced model on costumer royalty, satisfaction could explain 86% on the costumer royalty such as re-visit and promoting other people, and increase of explain power is not significant when other independent variables joined model (full model). Considering efficiency of model, costumer royalty could be explained by satisfaction only rather than other independent variables used. Finally, This study shows that the social-demographic variables of patient influenced the patient satisfaction, and the patient satisfaction influenced patient royalty directly.

본 연구에서는 갈락토오즈의 현장검사(point-of-care testing, POCT)를 위한 일회용 갈락토오즈 바이오센서 개발에 관해 논하고자 한다. Galactose oxidase(GAO)와 horseradish peroxidase(HRP) 두 효소를 0.05 M phosphate 완충용액에 용해시킨 후 스크린 프린팅(screen printing) 방법으로 제작한 전극위에 고정화하여 센서를 제작하였다. 이렇게 제작된 센서를 이용하여 $100{\mu}L$ 이하의 시료를 이용하여 갈락토오즈를 90초 이내에 측정하였다. 전극에서의 반응을 최적화하기 위하여 GAO 효소가 가장 우수한 활성을 나타내는 pH 7.0 완충용액을 이용하여 GAO와 HRP 효소를 1:1로 고정화하고, 1mM 1,1'-ferrocene-dimethanol 전자전달매개체를 도입하여 센서를 제작하였다. 유리 탄소전극의 경우 100 mV (vs Ag/AgCl), 스크린 프린트된 전극의 경우 -100 mV(vs Ag/AgCl)의 인가전압을 적용하였다. 본 연구에 의해 개발된 센서는 $0{\sim}400{\mu}M$의 갈락토오즈 농도에 대하여 우수한 직선성($r^2$ = 0.997, S/N = 3)을 나타내었고 낮은 인가전압을 적용하여 갈락토오즈를 측정하므로, ascorbic acid, uric acid 그리고 acetaminophen과 같은 방해물질의 영향을 최소화 할 수 있었다. 또한 갈락토오즈 표준 용액에 대하여 만족할 만한 재현성을 나타내었다(CV = 5%).
