2009년 1월 1일부터 3월 31일까지 신규 개원한 295개 의원급 의료기관을 대상으로 의료기관 행정인력이 있을 때와 없을 때에 따른 진료비 청구에 미치는 요인을 파악한 결과, 지역별로는 경인대권이 54.9% 가장 높은 분포를 보였으며, 진료과목별로는 일반의 29.8%로 높았으며, 행정인력이 많은 진료과도 일반의로 35.5%로 높게 나타났다. 행정인력이 있는 경우 단순청구오류건의 수정 및 이의신청횟수, 보완청구, 누락청구의 횟수도 높은 것으로 확인되며, 행정인력이 있는 경우 삭감된 부분에 대한 회수율일이 행정인력이 없는 경우보다 높은 것으로 확인되었다.이 상의 결과로 볼 때 행정인력은 병원행정 업무를 지속적인 교육과 의료인과의 소통을 통해 합리적인 청구방법 모색이 필요하다. 또한 병원행정인은 환자와 의료인과의 가교 역할을 담당하고 의료기관과 정부 등 관련기관과의 매개자로써 적절한 역할을 통해 의원급 의료기관의 경영의 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.

Physicians of specialty in radiology, clinical pathology, anatomical pathology, and anesthesiology considered that patients from other hospitals and medical facilities would be referred often to them and that less competition seemed to be expected in their specialty (30.8%). In contrast, general practitioners anticipated that larger population would increase the medical demand(62.5%). 28.6% of medical practitioners who graduated medical schools in other are than Taegu and 22.0% of medical practitioners who were trained in hospitals of other area than Taegu were influenced to choose Taegu by their spouses. In consideration of above findings, we may conclude that long term and rational manpower policies should be implemented to solve the problem of geographical maldistribution of physicians as well as short term physician-inducing policies, and they have to be incorporated with equitable community development.

Conclusion: This study revealed that pediatricians and urologists are attending more to the educational places and knowing much about the recent information on enuresis when compared to other primary care physicians, regarding the diagnostic age and treatment modality of enuresis.

The study subjects were 457 western doctors and 161 oriental doctors practicing at local clinics in Daegu City. Results : For the professionalism scale, the score for belief in service to the public of western doctors was significantly higher than that of oriental doctors (p<0.05) whereas the scores for sense of calling to the field and feeling of autonomy were higher in oriental doctors (p<0.01).

This study analyzes the efficiency of oriental hospitals using DEA(Data Envelopment Analysis). The input variables include the numbers of doctors, nurses, medical technicians, and beds. The output variable iscomprised of the sales account. The analysis tools used are EnPas and IBM SPSS Statistics 19. As a result of efficiency analysis, the private hospitals(establishment), less than 10 years in operation(operating period), containing less than 50 beds (number of the beds), located in the metropolitan area(location) showed high efficiency in the BCC(Banker, Charnes & Cooper) model, but indicated relatively low efficiency in CCR(Charnes, Cooper & Rhodes) model. This contradictory result is caused by inefficiencies in hospital size. The logistic regression analysis conducted to analyze the variables that affect the efficiency of oriental hospitals found that the efficiency decreased by 0.955 with each increase of 1 bed in the hospital.
