Recently, it is not too much to say that the world of hospital architecture in Korea is in a time of transition that undergo big changes. Each hospital .pursues their transformation not only for patiences' changing demands on medical services but to cope with rapid environmental changes that pouring like boundless competition, opening tendency and to get an advantage of competition to attract patiences with other hospitals. It is because national expectations and standards on medical services have risen and they are not satisfied with hospitals that run for doctors and medical care that served technically any more. With rising interests in health, it is emphasized not the functions of hospitals to prevent diseases but the purpose of treatment and securing other facilities according to rising economical incomes except medical facilities.

This study attempts to grasp outpatients' demands for interior space of outpatients departments through evaluating them. Six departments in H general hospital such as surgery, orthopedics, neurosurgery, plastic surgery, obstetrics, and urology, were evaluated. Evaluating items were consisted of ones related to spatial layout, furniture, interior climate, color and finishes, and dressing room of each waiting area, doctor's room and treatment room in six departments. The subjects were 210 outpatients who were using one of six departments. The results were ; 1) The outpatients evaluated very high interior space of waiting areas in six departments. 2) They evaluated doctor's rooms to be relatively high. However, visual privacy in there was not enough met. 3) The treatment room was also evaluated relatively high. However, furniture and equipment arrangement, consideration for patients and a dressing room were evaluated relatively low. 4) The outpatients' evaluation was significantly different by their gender and age. The male evaluated them higher than the female. Also, the older patients evaluated them higher than the younger. 5) The outpatients responded that ventilation, comfort interior, and space arrangement were very important elements in healthcare facility design.

Introduction : 최근 의료기관 내 진료비 정산으로 인한 전산화사업이 적극 추진되면서 각 의료기관은 생성된 자료의 목적과는 무관하게 대량의 자료를 지니고 있으면서도 병원경영과 관련하게 자료를 활용하고 있지 못하다．Objectives : 병원 입원환자의 데이터를 분석하여 입원환자의 이탈요인을 파악하여 이탈을 방지하고 지속적인 의료서비스를 제공할 수 있도록 하고자 한다. Method : 본 연구는 일개병원을 퇴원환자를 대상으로 2006년 1월 1일~2007년 12월 31일 동안의 퇴원환자 데이터를 기반으로 연구되었다. 퇴원환자 38,359명의 병원데이터 베이스를 기반으로 동일 연구기간 외래 누적데이터 375,659건의 외래환자 데이터와 비교하여 퇴원환자 중 재입원 예약 및 외래진료 예약 부도여부를 비교하는 후향적 연구를 수행하였다. 2008년 1월 1일 기준 재입원 예약 및 외래진료 예약부도 발생여부를 기준으로 계속진료환자 그릅과 이탈환자그룹을 생성하였다. 중복을 제거한 총 대상은 3,503명이였다. Discussion :본 연구에서 얻어진 결과를 기초로 퇴원환자의 이탈률이 높은 환자그룹을 집중 관리하여 이탈을 방지하고 관심을 갖고 향후 잠재적 이탈 고객을 다시 유입할 수 있는 많은 방안들이 마련되어야 할 것이다.

Also, evaluating spaces are waiting area, doctor's room, treatment room, nurse station, and resting and dressing area for nurses in outpatient department. The results are ; 1) The space layout type of outpatient area in general hospital which each department consists of waiting area, doctors offices, treatment room and etc. was evaluated positively by nurses. 2) The waiting area and doctor's room was evaluated relatively positive, the treatment room was more negatively than these two rooms. But nurse related spaces such as nurse station and resting and dressing room were evaluated relatively negative. 3) In aspects of interior elements, furniture, and color and finishes were rated to be relatively positive. However, air conditions were rated negatively. 4) The finishes and dressing area in treatment room were rated relatively low. This would be a basic data for planning the outpatient area of general hospital.

this study is aiming to obtain an index and a standard assessment which will help in forecasting circulation (critical movement-line) & behavior of pediatric out-patients for each sickness for future children's hospitals construction planning. The study above was based on the analytical results of ordinary disease types of child patients and the circulation of pediatric out-patients by each sickness, along with the comparison study on relationship between these analytical results and hospital facilities.

Background: In January 2018, revised elderly fixed outpatient copayment for the elderly were implemented. When people ages 65 years and older receive outpatient treatment at clinic-level medical institutions (clinic, dental clinic, Korean medicine clinic), with medical expenses exceeding 15,000 won but not exceeding 25,000 won, their copayment rates have decreased differentially from 30%. This study aimed to examine the changes of health utilization of elderly after revised elderly fixed outpatient copayment. Methods: We used Korea health panel data from 2016 to 2018. The time period is divided into before and after the revised elderly fixed outpatient copayment. We conducted Poisson segmented regression to estimate the changes in outpatient utilization and inpatient utilization and conducted segmented regression to estimate the changes in medical expenses. Results: Immediately after the revised policy, the number of clinic and Korean medicine outpatient visits of medical expenses under 15,000 won decreased. But the number of clinic outpatient visits in the range of 15,000 to 20,000 won and Korean medicine clinic in the range of 20,000 to 25,000 won increased. Copayment in outpatient temporarily decreased. The inpatient admission rates and total medical expenses temporarily decreased but increased again. Conclusion: We confirmed the temporary increase in outpatient utilization in the medical expense segment with reduced copayment rates. And a temporary decrease in medical expenses followed by an increase again. To reduce the burden of medical expense among elderly in the long run, efforts to establish chronic disease management policies aimed at preventing disease occurrence and deterioration in advance need to continue.

본 연구는 병원을 이용하는 외래환자들의 불만족요인과 만족요인들을 조사하여 보다 높은 고객만족 경영을 위한 기초자료를 제시하고자 하였다. 연구대상은 대전에 소재하는 일개의 종합병원 외래환자를 대상으로 2011년 10월 24일 1일간 설문조사를 실시하였다. 자료 수집은 총 160부의 설문지를 배포하여 144부를 통계분석자료로 이용하였다. 연구결과 행정지원부문의 특성 중 전반적 만족도와 타인추천 의향에 대하여 가장 많은 영향을 미치는 요인은 접수 수납 절차의 신속 간편성인 편리성으로 나타났으며 검사실 외래 진료대기실의 쾌적성도 공통으로 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 이상과 같은 결과 고객을 만족시킬 수 있는 고객지향적 병원경영시스템을 구축 운영한다면 병원의 경쟁력은 향상되고 병원의 지속가능성은 높아질 것이며 고객만족경영이라는 경영목표도 달성될 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.
