의료관광은 21세기 새로운 고부가가치 관광산업이라고 할 수 있다. 각 국가마다 다양하고 차별화된 의료관광 상품개발로 의료관광산업은 더욱더 활성화 될 것이다. 이러한 의료관광에 대한 관심이 증가함에 따라 의료관광상품을 개발하고 홍보하기 위해서는 관광객의 수요와 관심분야를 정확하게 분석하고 제공할 의료관광 상품을 준비해야 한다. 정부는 의료관광산업을 고부가가치 창출을 통한 국가경제발전과 Global Healthcare산업 전문가 육성 등을 통한 고용창출에 대한 기대효과가 큰 산업으로 보고, 의료관광 분야의 지원정책을 확대하여 의료관광 출입국 제도 개선, 의료관광객을 위한 원스톱 서비스 제도, 의료관광인력 양성제도 등을 도입하였다. 하지만 외국인 환자와 의료관광 유치업자와의 분쟁이 발생하고 있으며, 외국인 환자와 의료인의 의료사고분쟁, 외국인 환자를 대상으로 하는 여행업 종사자들과의 분쟁 등이 발생하고 있다. 본 논문은 의료관광과 관련하여 유치업자를 중심으로 발생하는 분쟁에 대한 유형을 검토하고 그에 대한 해결방안을 검토를 시도하였다. 이를 통해 의료관광 유치업자는 중개된 급부를 알선할 의무와 동시에 상당한 주의를 가지고 그 사무를 처리하여야 할 책임이 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 중개계약 성립 후에 적극적으로 중개결과에 이르기까지 소극적으로 대처하여 분쟁이 발생할 경우에는 그에 대한 책임에서 벗어나기 어렵다. 또한 의료관광 중개계약에서 유치업자는 외국인환자에게 급부의 내용에 설명의무와 조언의무를 부담하는 것을 알아야 한다. 외국인환자와 보건산업진흥원 "외국인환자 의료분쟁 해결을 위한 중재제도 안내"를 보면, 외국인환자가 진료계약서 작성할 때 외국인환자에게 의료사고로 인한 분쟁이 발생할 경우 우선적으로 "의료사고 피해구제 및 의료분쟁 조정 등에 관한 법률"에 따라 분쟁을 해결할 수 있는 방안을 마련하고 있다. 하지만 이러한 방법이 외국인환자를 보호하는데 충분한 것인지에 대한 논의는 좀 더 다양한 관점에서의 논의가 필요하다고 생각한다. 의료관광을 활성화시키기 위해서는 다양한 상품을 개발하는 것도 매우 중요하지만, 그와 관련한 분쟁이 발생할 경우 그에 대한 대처 방안도 사전에 마련해 두어야 할 것이다. 그렇게 함으로써 우수한 의료기술뿐만 아니라 외국인 의료관광객에게 신뢰를 바탕으로 더 커다란 발전을 할 수 있으리라 기대한다.

이 연구는 중국 대학생들의 한국 의료관광 융합서비스 이용에 대한 선호와 만족에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 파악하여 중국 의료관광객 유치를 위한 방안을 마련하는데 필요한 기초자료를 제공하기 위한 것이다. 이 연구를 위하여 구조화된 설문지를 개발하여 2015년 5월 1일부터 15일 사이에 중국 국제대학생 175명을 대상으로 자료를 수집하였다. 한국 의료 서비스에 대한 기대와 평가를 비교하기 위하여 t-검정을 실시하였다. 한국 의료관광 서비스 이용에 대한 만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 파악하기 위하여 선형회귀모형을 추정하였다. 다양한 회귀모형을 추정하였으며, 그 중에서 간결하면서 한국 의료서비스에 대한 만족도의 변량을 비교적 잘 설명해주는 최선의 모델을 선정하였다. 회귀모형 추정 결과 기술, 의료관광서비스의 질, 의료비용은 한국 의료서비스 이용에 대한 만족도와 유의하게 연관되어 있었다. 이 연구결과에 따르면, 중국 대학생들을 대상으로 한국의 의료서비스에 대한 이해를 높일 수 있는 전략이 필요하다. 중국 의료관광객 유치 활성화를 위해서는 기술수준의 제고, 의료서비스의 질 향상, 합리적인 비용의 설정도 중요하다.

The volume of transfer passengers now faces a crisis because the number of Chinese and Japanese passengers, the majority of transfer through Korea, is decreasing. This paper is analyzing the their air travel behaviors as well as characteristics of their transfer behaviors at airport. According to the research, it is suggested that transfer passengers perceive the importance of duty-free stores but their satisfaction of using duty-free stores during their transfer at Icheon airport was proven to be low. Considering the characteristics of transfer service quality at Incheon airport, waiting time of transfer is important but not satisfactory for them. Moreover, information of free transfer tour to city downtown and paid-in transfer tour for medical tourism is not known very well among North East Asian passengers. Thus, it is necessary to do detailed research of North East Asian transfer passengers, who have transferred through Incheon airport more than twice a year, to find out their exact needs of transfer tour in Korea.

Current medical tourism is focused on the services of large hospitals and it is hard to find ways to attract the users. Users collect information for medical tourism through various paths in order to receive the medical consultations and customized tour services. To expand medical tourism to small and medium sized hospitals, it is necessary to have the customized medical consultations, tours and interpreter services, which are the key elements of medical tourism. This study suggests ways to provide the services based on information on medical consultations, tours and interpreter services that users had experienced directly, and also based on the platform for the essential items integrated from users, hospitals and guides' viewpoints. With information on hospitals that provide medical consultations and guides who are able to provide professional services in translation, interpretation and customized tour, users may accumulate and share the information about hospitals and customized tours verified by other users from the integrated platform. To match the contents provided by hospitals and guides with information experienced by users into a system, this study suggests the construction plan for the service model that can match the experience information between users and hospitals, between users and guides and between hospitals and guides systematically by operating the data in the universal container.

의료관광은 최첨단 의료 시설과 기술로 외국인을 유치해 단순히 시술이나 치료를 하는 것 뿐만 아니라 휴양이나 레저, 문화 활동을 관광과 연계하는 산업으로 21세기 건강 추구형 라이프 스타일 변화에 따라 블루오션으로 떠오르는 산업 분야 이다. 의료와 관광의 목적을 동시에 들고 입국하는 중국인들이 많다. 하지만, 의료관광에 대한 시스템이 제대로 지원되지 않고, 중국인을 위한 의료 보험혜택이 전혀 되지 않기 때문에 이러한 중국인들을 위해 안전한 병원과 가이드를 연결하고, 중국인들에게 제대로 된 정보가 제공될 시스템 개발이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 병원과 중국인 관광객, 중개인 간의 효과적인 연결방법에 대한 의료관광 서비스 시스템을 제안하고자 한다.

The degree of satisfaction was evaluated as quite satisfaction of 87.5 %, full satisfaction of 12.5 % showing that a whole number of the patients treated with thread-embedding therapy showed relative satisfaction. This evaluation is, however, a short term survey which should lead to a further term study. For the evaluation of side effects of thread-embedding therapy, 75 % of patients answered as pain occurred during the therapy, 62.5 % as edema, 50 % as hypodermal bleeding. Conclusion : First of all, there should be more constructive promotion and support for medical tour of oriental medicines, ultimately leading to promoting better clusters of oriental medicines.
