Abstract

In South Korea, few researches have been conducted into the incidence of injury diseases and into their demographic and sociologic characteristics. This research has estimated and analyzed the results of an questionnaire investigation carried out by the Korea medical panel (2008) and the social economic costs. In particular, an estimation has been conducted of social costs for each type of accident, injury and intoxication and of medical use for the injuries. For the future, it is necessary to develop concrete programs customized for age, education level, economic income and to continually implement injury prevention education, with a view to reducing the injury incidence and medical expenses; and also, individuals' participation in and social and national efforts are required for an efficient operation of the health insurance, for the purpose of reducing social and/or economic costs for injuries in South Korea.

우리나라에서는 손상 질환에 대한 발생률 및 인구사회학적 특성에 관한 연구는 찾기 어려운 실정이어서 본 연구는 한국의료패널(2008)의 설문조사 자료와 사회 경제적비용을 추계하여 분석하였다. 특히, 사고 손상 중독 유형별 사회적 비용과 의료이용 형태에 따른 사회적 비용을 추계하였다. 향후, 손상 발생률 감소와 의료비 감소를 위한 연령, 교육, 경제소득. 사고 발생장소 등에 맞는 구체적인 예방프로그램을 개발하고 또한 지속적인 손상예방 교육이 필요하고, 우리나라 손상의 사회경제적비용을 줄이기 위한 건강보험의 효율적 운영과 개인의 참여와 사회적, 국가적 노력이 필요하다.
