Abstract

On Aug 4, 2017, the new legislation of 'Act on Hospice & Palliative Care and Patient Determination of Life Sustaining Treatments' was enforced. Compared with articles about the hospice & palliative care of 'National Cancer Act', it should be helpful to update the change points.

2016년 2월 3일에 제정된 "호스피스 완화의료 및 임종과정에 있는 환자의 연명의료결정에 관한 법률(이하, 연명의료결정법)"이 2017년 8월 4일에 시행되면서, 2011년부터 "암관리법"에 의해 추진되던 호스피스 완화의료(이하, 호스피스)가 새로운 법에 근거하여 추진되게 되었다. 이에 연명의료결정법의 호스피스에 대한 내용을 암관리법에서의 내용과 비교하여 주요 변경사항에 대해 살펴보아 새로운 정책의 내용과 방향에 대하여 숙지하여, 제도 시행에 참여하도록 해야 한다.
