  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the current status of claim management process of general contractors in South Korea. As the claim management becomes more important nowadays, maintaining the process for claim management systematically and consistently becomes more important as well. To improve the claim management process, it is necessary to diagnose the current status of claim management process so companies establish their targets for improvement. This study develops a survey to identify the current status of claim management process that major general contractors in South Korea have. Questions in the survey are classified into four categories including entitlement check, potential claim event check, time bar check, and tasks for substantiation. By conducting a series of statistical analyses with 94 survey data collected from employees working in the general contractor companies in South Korea, this study examines and analyzes their claim management process in terms of the several categories. It is expected that the results contribute to diagnosing how practitioners maintain their claim management, which will help them establish the direction of management enhancement.

  • 본 연구는 사회구성주의 시각에서 보건복지사무소와 사회복지사무소에 참여한 직원들의 보건복지 협력경험을 벤슨의 균형모델(Benson, 1975)과 바이크의 센스메이킹 이론(Weick, 1995)으로 분석함으로써 업무환경과 실무자의 역할을 구상하는데 함의를 얻고자 함에 그 목적이 있다. 두 시범사업의 각 네 지역을 선정하여 총 27명의 직원을 대상으로 반구조화된 면접을 실시한 결과, 양 분야 실무자들이 통합서비스 업무를 담당할 수 있는 구조적 관계적 환경을 초기에 구성하여 직역간 벽을 허물 수 있는 계기를 마련하는 것이 중요하다는 것이 부각되었다. 이러한 연구결과는 향후 이용자 중심 사회서비스 설계에 있어 보건 복지간 협력이 보다 중요해지고 관련된 정책구상이 불가피하다는 점에서 시사하는 바가 클 것으로 본다.

  • The purpose of this study was to develop a home health care model in the public health system and to test the effectiveness of the model. Seven com-munity health practitioners in Yon- Cheon county. Kyunggi province, carried out home health care service for this research. The subjects of the home health care were a total of 111 community residents with chronic health problems and risk-prone infants and children; 29 persons with hypertension, 18 persons with diabetes, 12 persons with neurologic problems, 12 elderly, and 40 infants and children. During the period of study, from December, 1993 to March, 1995, a demonstrative home health care model was developed in the Yon-Cheon County community health centers with the cooperation of the Yon-Cheon Medical Center and Yon-Cheon Public Health Center for the first six months. A home care practice manual and recording system for home visits were also co-developed by the researchers and community health practitioners. Four workshops and monthly conferences were held for this purpose. Actual home care practice took place for two months, and on-going evaluation and replanning accompanied this process. The result of the evaluation of home care service were as follows. 1) For persons with hypertension, diabetes, neurologic problems, there was significant improvement in knowledge of disease and care, but no significant difference was seen in health behavior or symptoms after home care service. 2) No significant difference was seen in level of self esteem or depression after reminiscence therapy among 12 elderly subjects. 3) There were significant differences in satis-faction toward child rearing and parental sup-port, but no significant difference In education needs for parental role after home care service among parents of infants and children. 4) There was significant improvement in the quality of life among the subjects after the home care service. 5) Subjects responded that they were highly satisfied with the home care service given by the community health practitioners. Although, the actual implementation period was very short, and not all of the evaluation outcomes showed significant improvement, the home health care model of community health practitioners was, in general, positively evaluated. Through this re-search, the possibility of community health practitioners working as active home care personnel in the public health care system is supported. Further research with an expanded area and subjects for a longer period is recommended. Cost effectiveness research is also needed.

  • Objectives: The aim of this study was to describe general practitioners (GPs)' opinions and practices of preventive care and patients' opinions, attitudes, and behaviors towards prevention. Methods: The data stemmed from a cross-sectional national survey on prevention conducted in Switzerland from 2015 to 2016. In total, 170 randomly drawn GPs and 1154 of their patients participated. The GPs answered an online questionnaire and the patients answered a questionnaire administrated by fieldworkers present at their practices. Results: Both patients and GPs agreed that delivering preventive care is the dedicated role of a GP. It appeared that beyond classical topics of prevention such as cardiovascular risk factors, other prevention areas (e.g., cannabis consumption, immunization, occupational risks) were scarcely covered by GPs and reported as little-known by patients. In addition, GPs seemed to use a selective approach to prevention, responding to the clinical context, rather than a systematic approach to health promotion. The results also highlight possibilities to improve prevention in family medicine through options such as more supportive tools and public advertising, more time and more delegated tasks and, finally, a more recognized role. Conclusions: Despite an unfavorable context of prevention within the healthcare system, preventive care in family medicine is reasonably good in Switzerland. However, some limitations appear regarding the topics and the circumstances of preventive care delivery. A global effort is needed to implement necessary changes, and the responsibility should be broadened to other stakeholders.

  • Background: This retrospective study investigated the incidence rate of accidental foreign body aspiration and ingestion according to patient sex, age, and dental department. This study aimed to verify whether the incidence rate is higher in geriatric than in younger patients and whether it is different among dental departments. Methods: Accidental foreign body aspiration and ingestion cases were collected from electronic health records and the safety report system of Yonsei University Dental Hospital from January 2011 to December 2017. The collected data included patients' age, sex, medical conditions, treatment procedures, and foreign objects that were accidentally aspirated or ingested. The incidence rate was calculated as the number of accidental foreign body aspirations and ingestions relative to the total number of patient visits. Differences depending on the patients' sex, age, and dental department were statistically identified. Results: There were 2 aspiration and 37 ingestion cases during the 7-year analysis period. The male to female incidence ratio was 2.8:1. The incidence rate increased with age and increased rapidly among those aged 80 years or older. Seven of the 37 patients with accidental foreign body ingestion had intellectual disability, Lou Gehrig's disease, dystonia, or oral and maxillofacial cancer. The incidence rate was highest in the Predoctoral Student Clinic and the Department of Prosthodontics. The most frequently swallowed objects were fixed dental prostheses and dental implant components. Conclusion: The incidence rate of accidental foreign body aspiration and ingestion differed according to patient sex, age, and dental department. Dental practitioners must identify high-risk patients and apply various methods to prevent accidental foreign body aspiration and ingestion in dental clinics. Inexperienced practitioners should be particularly careful.

  • The code of the International Classification of Disease(ICD) is seriously questioned on its effectiveness in identifing an independent disease entity from similar conditions at general practitioner's offices. This study has attempted to show individual coding variations in ICD for similar ambulatory care conditions. It has been assumed that a following outpatient visit is regarded as the sane kind of visit owing to the same disease if a visit to the different source of care would be mad within an interval of less than two days. The 'D' health insurance association was selected for this analysis. The 'D' association had 153,298 members and made claims of 642,605 outpatient care in 1990. Out of the total outpatient claims, 8.6%(55,102 claims) were counted as the same disease which could meet the above assumption. Percent of conditions classified as the 10 leading causes of frequent visits which were matched accurately to the subsequent ICD diagnostic code found to be 15.8% on the average. The URI was noted for the highest concurrence rate of 20.4%. This proportion was even decreased to 11.6% on the case of chronic disease. Despite the fact that the assumption underlying the definition of the above same disease is rather rough and inappropriate, this study reveals that the code of ICD currently in use has weaknesses in seperating a certain independent disease from similar conditions at the outpatient setting. Thus, efforts need to be elaborated to meet the need of a new system of classification for conditions and diseases encountering at ambulatory care.

  • 본 연구는 경상북도 경주시 보건소에서 1995년 6월 10일부터 10월 17일까지, 성주군 보건소에서 8월 1일부터 9월 20일까지, 고령군 보건소에서 8월 5일부터 10월 17일까지 진료를 받은 환자 중에서 타 의료기관으로 의뢰된 환자 249명을 대상으로 설문조사를 통하여 보건소 이용자들의 타 의료기관으로의 진료의뢰 양상, 진료의뢰서 발급경위 및 보건소내 전문과목의 요구도를 파악하고자 실시되었다 환자 본인의 희망에 의해 진료의뢰서를 발급받은 경우와 의사의 판단에 의해 진료의뢰서를 발급받은 경우 모두를 포함하였으며 본인이 설문 조사에 응한 경우만을 분석대상으로 하였다. 자료수집 기간 중 3개 보건소의 전체적인 진료의뢰율은 보건소 이용자 13,652명 중 371명으로 2.7%였으며, 설문조사에 응한 249명 중 환자 본인의 희망에 의해 진료의뢰서를 발급받은 사람이 214명(85.9%)이었고, 의사의 판단에 의해 진료의뢰서를 발급받은 사람은 35명(14.1%)이었다. 환자 본인의 희망에 의해 진료의뢰서를 발급받은 사람 중에는 타 의료기관을 거치지 않고 바로 보건소를 방문한 사람이 98명 (45.9%)으로 가장 많았고, 개인의원을 들렀다가 보건소를 방문한 사람은 74명(34.6%), 평상시 진료는 개인의원에서 받고 있지만 진료의뢰서를 발급받기 위해 보건소를 방문한 사람이 42명(19.5%)인 것으로 나타났다. 대상자들이 보건소에 진료의뢰서를 발급받으러 온 이유로는 '보건소가 거리가 가까워서'가 74명(34.6%)으로 가장 많았고, '보건소에서는 진료의뢰서 발급을 잘 해주기 때문에'가 58명(27.1%), '개인의원에서 진료의뢰서를 발급해주지 않으려 해서'가 35명(16.4%) 그리고 '개인의원에서 진료를 받던 의사에게 진료의뢰서를 발급받기가 미안해서'가 30명(14.0%) 등의 순이었다. 진료의뢰된 환자들의 한국표준질병분류에 의한 질병별 분포는 진료의뢰된 환자 전체적으로는 근골격계 및 결합조직 질환이 43명(17.3%)으로 가장 많았고, 환자 본인이 진료의뢰서 발급을 원한 경우는 신경계 및 감각기 질환이 11.7%,의사가 판단하여 진료의뢰서를 발급한 경우에는 감염성 및 기생충성 질환이 11.4%로 전체 질병별 분포에 비해 상대적으로 높은 비율을 차지하였다. 진료의뢰 환자들의 진료의뢰서 발급 후 진료희망 의료기관은 환자 본인이 희망한 경우와 의사의 판단에 의해 진료의뢰한 경우 모두에서 종합병원 이상의 의료기관을 선호하였다. 보건소내 전문의 진료의 필요성에 대해서는 환자 본인의 희망에 의해 진료의뢰서를 발급받은 경우와 의사의 판단에 의해 진료의뢰서를 발급받은 경우에서 각각 161명(75.2%)과 26명(74.3%)이 전문의의 진료가 필요하다고 응답하였다. 전문의의 진료가 필요하다고 응답한 경우 필요한 전문과목의 종류는 내과 88명 (47.1%), 정형외과 19명(10.2%), 일반외과 병(9.1%) 순이었고, 보건소내 전문의의 진료 횟수는 상주 전문의를 원한 경우가 108명(57.8%)으로 가장 많았고, 1주일에 $2\sim3$회가 32명(17.1%), 1주일에 1회가 21명(11.2%), 1달에 1회가 17명(9.1%)순이었다. 이상의 결과로 보건소에서 진료의뢰서를 발급받은 사람의 대부분은 환자 본인이 원하여 진료의뢰서를 발급받고 있어 환자의뢰제도의 개선이 요망되며, 보건소에서 전문의 진료가 실시된다면 내과진료가 우선적으로 시행되고, 정형외과와 일반외과 등의 진료 요구가 높은 전문과목은 민간의료기관의 협조를 통하여 비상근 형태의 진료가 시행되는 것이 좋을 것으로 생각된다.

  • Biopsy is a critical method for disease diagnosis and treatment planning. It can be applied from simple inflammatory lesions to malignant tumors. But many general dental practitioners are unfamiliar with the basic knowledge and skills required for biopsy. Moreover, biopsy indications and contraindications for certain diseases may differ depending on the type of dental practice environment and the specialty of the dentist. Biopsy education can increase the choices a dentist has during disease diagnosis. Here we will discuss details on biopsy needed to the general dentist.
