Recently, the frequency and magnitude of damages of school facilities due to various disasters are increasing, and similar accidents occur repeatedly every year, causing enormous damage to school classes. Furthermore, damage to school facilities will require considerable time and safety confirmation measures to restore disaster and normalize the class. In this regards, based on the questionnaire survey on the difficulties and improvement measures of the disaster recovery work of the school safety manager, we propose the application of in-kind compensation for damage to school facilities to ensure rapid disaster recovery, simplification of administrative procedures, and quality of restoration work.

Objectives : This study investigated the health care utilization patterns of workers' compensation insurance(WCI) pneumoconiosis patients with excessively long hospital stays. Methods : The discharge summary data of 3,094 WCI pneumoconiosis patients were analyzed. The study sample was divided into 3 groups based on the length of stay(LOS). Health care utilization patterns were compared among the groups with logistic regression analysis, and the LOS determinants were identified with linear regression analysis. Results : The average LOS of the 222 long stay group patients was 1,448 days. Patients in this group tended to use private general hospitals, were admitted through the emergency room and discharged without the consent of a doctor. Conclusions : Many of the long LOS patients will maintain their inpatient status for the rest of their lives. For quality of life and efficient use of health care resources, policy makers need to establish a policy that enables patients to receive outpatient care in appropriate living conditions outside the hospital.

Background: Pain medicine often requires medico-legal involvement, even though diagnosis and treatments have improved considerably. Multiple guidelines for pain physicians contain many recommendations regarding interventional treatment. Unfortunately, no definite treatment guidelines exist because there is no complete consensus among individual guidelines. Pain intervention procedures are widely practiced and highly associated with adverse events and complications. However, a comprehensive, systemic review of medical-dispute cases (MDCs) in Korea has not yet been reported. The purpose of this article is to analyze the frequency and type of medical dispute activity undertaken by pain specialists in Korea. Methods: Data on medical disputes cases were collected through the Korea Medical Association mutual aid and through a private medical malpractice liability insurance company. Data regarding the frequency and type of MDCs, along with brief case descriptions, were obtained. Results: Pain in the lumbar region made up a major proportion of MDCs and compensation costs. Infection, nerve injury, and diagnosis related cases were the most major contents of MDCs. Only a small proportion of cases involved patient death or unconsciousness, but compensation costs were the highest. Conclusions: More systemic guidelines and recommendations on interventional pain management are needed, especially those focused on medico-legal cases. Complications arising from pain management procedures and treatments may be avoided by physicians who have the required knowledge and expertise regarding anatomy and pain intervention procedures and know how to recognize procedural aberrations as soon as they occur.

본 연구는 산업재해 피험자의 고통을 수반하는 장애나 질병이 개인의 사회경제적 활동과 직접적인 관련이 있으며 현재의 건강과 일상생활 만족도에 영향을 미치는 주요 변수라는 관점에서 사회경제적, 사회적 활동에 대한 기초자료를 제공하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 본 연구의 목적은 산업재해서비스와 삶의 만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 연계하여 산재보험 수혜자의 경제적, 심리적 재활을 위한 기초자료를 제시하고, 고통과 삶의 만족도 간의 관계를 규명하는 것이다. 연구 결과, 산재보험 급여 수급자는 산재 통증으로 인해 산재 환자가 된 후 일상생활 만족도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 재활서비스와 의료상담 서비스 간에는 양(+)의 관계가 있었다. 산업재해 통증은 개인의 특성인 자존감을 저하시키며, 현재의 건강이 좋아져도 일상생활에 대한 만족도가 떨어진다. 산업재해 관련 서비스의 중요성은 재활 서비스와 의료 상담 서비스를 통해 일상생활의 만족도를 높인다는 점에서 알 수 있습니다. 또한 산업재해 이후 다양한 문제와 상황에 처한 환자에게 적합한 자존감 향상을 위해 지속적으로 노력한 결과 재활서비스 및 건강에 대한 만족도가 향상될 수 있음을 간접적으로 확인하였다.

ADR has recently been expanded, making it possible to solve traffic accident disputes, which is a matter of urgency for parties to avoid. This point serves as an important procedural element. Such disputes are an area that requires a quick resolution. To try to solve any dispute that occurs in the complex environment of modern times one-by-one through litigation does not make sense. It gives an undue burden on the judicial body and the investigation agency. Like litigation, today's arbitration system, should have effective conflict resolution. The arbitration of automobile traffic accident disputes can be seen as roughly adjusted through the insurance company, the Dispute Coordinating Committee, and the Crime Victims Protection Act. It consists of experts mainly, and the resolution of automobile traffic accident disputes can be resolved through the Sajonsa and workers insurance company. However, adjustments to failure incident mostly need attention. Most of a company's compensation insurance indemnity needs to be processed in practice. In addition, a vicious cycle of litigation and delay period is repeated if a lawyer is appointed. There are unreasonable adjustment systems in the midst of these. Avoiding traffic accidents allows parties to resolve disputes better. Arbitration of disputes in automobile traffic accidents handled by arbitration institutions is desirable. It is determined that the handling of a case by a village attorney is efficient.
