초록

선진국을 중심으로 의료시장 개방 압력이 거세지고 있다. 아울러 일반인들도 건강정보에 대한 관심이 점차 증가되고 있다. 최근 건강(의료)정보 포털 사이트의 폭발적 증가를 가져왔으나 시대의 흐름에 적합한 양질의 의료정보 검증에 대한 연구는 미진한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 건강정보 웹사이트의 소비자 중요도와 만족도 면에서 사용성, 정보구조 및 내용, 그리고 상호작용성과 이와 관련하여 재방문 의향 여부를 측정하였다. 이를 위하여 정보시스템 품질평가에 유용한 도구로 평가되는, 수정된 기술수용모형을 기반으로 개발된 WebQual 모형을 이용하여 건강정보 웹사이트의 소비자 중심 품질 요인을 알아보고자 하였다. 본 연구 목적에 적합한 수정된 WebQual 품질 요인 48개의 문항으로 323명의 충청지역 거주자에 대한 건강정보 웹사이트 품질 요인을 조사 분석하였다. 조사 분석결과는 WebQual 품질 요인 중에서 소비자 중심의 품질요인으로 크게 사용성, 정보품질(정보체계, 정보내용), 상호작용성(개인화, 개인정보보호) 각각의 세부 주요 요인들을 도출하였으며 재방문성과의 관련 정도를 나타낼 수 있었다. 본 연구 결과를 통해 무한 경쟁 시대의 건강정보 웹사이트 구축에 유용한 시장 전략을 제공할 것으로 기대한다.
