Abstract

Recently, the business environment of healthcare has changed rapidly due to the entering the mobile era, the intensifying global competition, and the explosion of healthcare needs. Despite of necessity in expanding new IT-based medical services and investing IT resources to respond environmental changes, the small and medium sized hospitals could not realize these requirements due to the limited management resources. CHISSMH is designed and presented in this research to provide high valued clouding medical services with reasonable price. CHISMH is designed and presented in this research to provide high valued medical services with reasonable price through cloud computing. CHISME is designed to maximize resource pooling and sharing through the visualization. By doing so, Cloud Service provider could minimize maintenance cost of cloud data center, provide high level services with reasonable pay-per-use price. By doing so, Cloud Service provider could minimize maintenance cost of cloud data center, and could provide high level services with reasonable pay-per-use price. CHISME is expected to be base framework of cloud HIS services and be diffusion factor of cloud HIS services Operational experience in CHISSMH with 15 hospitals is analyzed and presented as well.

본 연구는 모바일 시대의 진입, 글로벌 경쟁격화, 및 의료서비스 요구사항의 확대 등, 의료경영환경의 급격한 변화에 부응하기 위해 새로운 IT 기반 의료서비스가 필수적임에도 불구하고 이를 실현하고 있지 못한 중소형 규모 병원에 클라우드 기반 의료서비스를 제공할 수 있는 '중소형 병원의 클라우드 병원정보시스템(CHISSMH, Cloud Hospital Information System for Small Medium Hospitals)'의 아키텍처와 서비스 모델을 제시하였다. 스마트폰 시대에 진입하면서 개인단위의 클라우드 서비스는 일반화되었지만 비즈니스 단위의 서비스, 특히 병원정보시스템에 대한 클라우드 서비스의 도입은 초기단계이기에 이를 활성화하고자하는 차원에서 CHISSMH의 아키텍처를 개발하여 제시하였다. 특히 본 연구는 병원산업계에 클라우딩 서비스 도입 활성화를 위해 사용자관점이 아닌 서비스 제공자 관점에서 이에 대한 해결책을 제시하였다. 즉, 서비스 제공자가 고품질 및 합리적 가격의 클라우드 의료 서비스를 제공한다면 비록 일부 저해요인이 존재하더라도 도입이 활성화될 것으로 기대한다. 이를 위해 CHISSMH는 하드웨어뿐만 아니라 애플리케이션까지 가상화를 시도하여 자원공용화(Resource Pooling)를 추구함으로써 운영비용의 최소화를 통해 합리적 가격의 서비스를 제공할 수 있는 기술 기반 아키텍처와 서비스 모델을 제시하였다. 또한 CHISSMH이 15개 중소병원을 대상으로 서비스한 자료를 분석하여 CHISSMH의 합리성과 유용성을 제시하였으며, 전통적 소유형 HIS와 비교하여 44.5%의 IT 서비스 비용이 절감되는 것으로 나타났다.
