Background: Appropriate physician workforce projection through reasonable discussions and decisions with a broad view on supply and demand of the workforce, thus, is very important for high-quality healthcare services. The study expects to provide preliminary research data on the workforce diagnosis standard model for Korean physician workforce policy decision through more flexible and objective physician workforce projection in reflection of diverse changes in healthcare policy and sociodemographic environments. Methods: A low flow rate through the causal map was developed, and an objective workforce demand projection from 2019 to 2040 was conducted. In addition, projections by scenarios under various situations were conducted with the low flow rate developed in the study. Lastly, the demand projection of the physician workforce by region of 17 cities and provinces was conducted. Results: First, demand of physicians in 2019 was 110,665, 113,450 in 2020, 129,496 in 2025, 146,837 in 2030, 163,719 in 2035, and 179,288 in 2040. Second, the scenario for the retirement of baby boomers led to a decrease in the growth rate due to time delay. Third, Seoul and Gyeonggi-do account for a high percentage of demand, a very high upward trend was identified in Gyeonggi-do, and as a result, the projection showed that the demand of the physician workforce in Gyeonggi-do would worsen over time. Conclusion: This study is meaningful in that rational and collective physician workforce supply and demand and its imbalance in workforce distribution were verified through various projections by scenarios and regions of Korea with System Dynamics.

Background: In Korea, the problem of physician workforce imbalances has been a debated issue for a long time. This study aimed to draw key lessons and policy implications to Korea by analyzing projection models of physician demand/supply among five countries. Methods: We adopted theoretical framework and analyzed detail indicators used in projection models of demand/supply comparatively among countries. A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed and Google Scholar with key search terms and it was complimented with hand searching of grey literature in Korean or English. Results: As a results, Korea has been used a supply-based traditional approach without taking various variables or environmental factors influencing on demand/supply into consideration. The projection models of USA and Netherlands which considered the diversity of variables and political issues is the most closest integrated approach. Based on the consensus of stakeholder, the evolved integrated forecasting approach which best suits our nation is needed to minimize a wasteful debate related to physician demand/supply. Also it is necessary to establish the national level statistics indices and database about physician workforce. In addition, physician workforce planning will be discussed periodically. Conclusion: We expect that this study will pave the way to seek reasonable and developmental strategies of physician workforce planning.

The study was conducted to project supply and demand of the nurses till year 2010 based on analysis of supply and demand of nurses up to year 1991. Results of the study will provide invaluable information for nurses manpower planning as well as overall health manpower planning for the 21th century. It is projected that nurses will be oversupplied based on the current prductivity which is undesirable situation if the quality of care is considered, and undersupplied based on the the medical law as well as optimal productivity. Thus, it is desirable to increase active supply of nurses. One of the ways of increasing active supply would be increasing the size of training and education. But, considering low employment rate of nurses which is about 59% better way of solving problems related to nurses shortage would be improvement in nurses' employment rate. According to simulation study done as part of this study, if nurses' employment rate goes up to 80%, there is no need for increasing the size of training to meet the demand at the level of medical law.

Purpose : this study was to project demand of home nursing care in Korea for contributing toward the distribution of home nursing care resource. Method : demand of home nursing care is projected according to income level and needed service level of each person. in addition, demand sufficiency of home nursing care is taken by estimating for supply level available. Result : home nursing care service is scarecely provided to people who belong to second area, that is, only $1.6{\sim}2.3%$ out of them are provided and also, supply system comes short of meeting demand of the other people(who belong to one, third area). Conclusion : therefore, for proper provision of home nursing care, different supply system and policy direction for establishment and expansion of home nursing care is to be developed.

본 연구는 국민영양관리를 위한 전문 인력 중장기 수급전망을 통하여 영양사 인력수급정책에 필요한 기초 자료와 정책방향을 제시하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위하여 영양사의 면허등록인력, 사망자, 해외이주자, 취업직종 등 공급실태를 조사 분석하였다. 이 분석결과를 토대로 영양사 인력의 중장기 수급추계와 정책방향을 제시하였다. 영양사의 실태분석을 위해서 보건복지가족부의 영양사 면허등록인력, 행정안전부의 주민등록자료 및 건강보험공단의 건강보험 자격 자료를 수집하여 분석하였고, 영양사 인력 공급 추계방법으로는 기초추계유형 하에서 유입유출방법과 인구학적인 방법을 사용하였고, 수요추계방법으로는 인구, 국민총생산액 (GDP) 그리고 외국의 기준을 적용하는 비 (ratio)의 방법을 적용하였다. 본 연구결과에 따르면, 2025년까지 영양사 수급불균형정도와 방향은 영양사 수요추계방법에 따라 다소 다르게 전망된다. 먼저 인구 비 (ratio)를 적용한 수요추계에서 단순인구를 적용한 수요 추계치는 우리나라와 같이 저출산 현상이 지속되는 국가에서는 향후 국민건강영양수요의 변화를 반영하지 못하기 때문에 적절하지 않다고 판단된다. 따라서 인구 비를 적용해야 하는 경우 연령별 가중치가 적용된 보정된 인구수를 적용하는 것이 타당하다. 이 방법에 의한 수요추계치와 공급추계치를 비교하면 수요에 비해서 공급이 다소 많아서 2010년에 1,634명에서 2025년에 2,076명으로 영양사가 공급과잉 될 것으로 전망되지만, 수급 불균형 규모가 10%내외에 있기 때문에 큰 문제가 되지 않을 것으로 전망된다. 뿐만 아니라 향후 소득증가에 따른 건강수준 향상에 대한 요구와 만성질환자 증가 등에 따른 식이영양의 중요성으로 영양사 수요는 증가하리라 판단되기 때문에 수급불균형은 큰 문제가 되지 않을 것으로 판단된다. 국내총생산 (GDP)의 비 (ratio)를 적용한 방법과 관련하여, 국내총생산이 원화 (￦)와 달러화 ($)로 표시된 것에 따라 수급불균형의 규모가 다소 달라지는 것으로 나타났다. 원화로 표시된 국내총생산의 비를 적용하여 추계한 수요와 비교하면 10% 내외의 수급불균형이 발생하고, 달러화로 표시된 국내총생산의 비를 적용한 수요추계치와 비교하면 영양사 공급과잉규모가 증가하다가 2020년 이후 부터 공급과잉의 규모가 감소한다. 국내총생산 (GDP)을 적용한 수요추계치와 공급추계치를 비교하면 전반적으로 공급과잉현상이 나타날 것으로 전망되지만, 노령화 및 만성질환자의 증가에 따른 식이영양의 수요의 증가로 영양사의 수요가 증가할 것으로 판단되어 국내총생산의 비를 적용한 시나리오 하에서도 영양사의 수급불균형은 크게 문제가 되지 않을 것으로 판단된다. 외국의 영양사 비를 적용한 시나리오와 관련하여, 공급추계치를 미국의 영양사 기준을 적용하여 추계한 우리나라 영양사 수요추계치와 비교하면, 시나리오에 상관없이 우리나라 영양사 수요는 2025년까지 공급과잉으로 전망된다. 그러나 유럽의 영양사 기준을 적용했을 때는 시나리오에 따라 수급전망이 달라진다. 유럽의 '시나리오 1'을 기준으로 하면 공급과잉 현상이 발생하지만 '시나리오 2'를 기준으로 하면 공급부족현상이 발생한다. 외국의 기준을 적용한 수급추계결과에 대해서는 국가 간 영양사의 역할 및 기능 등이 다소 다를 수 있기 때문에 신중하게 접근해야 한다. 우리나라 영양사인력은 다소 과잉공급이 전망되지만 노령화 및 만성질환자의 증가에 따른 식이영양 수요의 증가와 병원 분야의 임상영양사의 수요의 증가로 영양사의 수요가 증가할 것으로 판단되어 영양사 공급과잉은 큰 문제가 될 것으로 보이지는 않는다. 그러나 우리나라의 영양사 자격요건은 지나치게 열려있으며 이는 영양사인력의 자질에도 영향을 미치고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 향후 영양사 면허자격과 합격요건을 강화하여 영양사 배출 인력의 자질 향상과 적정수급을 유지하는 방향의 정책이 요구된다.

Purpose : This study was to develop a strategy for modeling future workforce projections to serve as a basis for analyzing annual supply of and demand for physical therapists across the South Korea into 2030. Methods : In-and-out movement model was used to project the supply of physical therapists. The demand was projected according to the demand-based method which consists of four-stages such as estimation of the utilization rate of the base year, forecasting of health care utilization of the target years, forecasting of the requirements of clinical physical therapists and non-clinical physical therapists based on the projected physical therapists. Results : Based on the current productivity standards, there will be oversupply of 39,007 to 40,875 physical therapists under the demand scenario of average rate in 2030, undersupply of 44,663 to 49,885 under the demand scenario of logistic model, oversupply of 16,378 to 19,100 under the demand scenario of logarithm, and oversupply of 18,185 to 20,839 under the demand scenario of auto-regressive moving average (ARIMA) model in 2030. Conclusion : The result of this projection suggests that the direction and degree of supply of and demand for physical therapists varied depending on physical therapists productivity and utilization growth scenarios. However, the need for introduction of a professional physical therapist system and the need to provide long-term care rehabilitation services are actively being discussed in entering the aging society. If community rehabilitation programs for rehabilitation of disabled people and the elderly are activated, the demand of physical therapists will increase, especially for elderly people. Therefore, healthcare policy should focus on establishing rehabilitation service infrastructure suitable for an aging society, providing high-quality physical therapy services, and effective utilization of physical therapists.

Korea is expected to become a super-aged society by 2050. Given an aging population and the increasing pressure for the early retirement, a sufficient social safety net for elderly population becomes important. The Korean government introduced public reverse mortgage program in 2007, which is a product for aging seniors and the elderly, The number of reverse mortgage subscribers has also steadily grown. The demand continues to grow, but the reverse mortgage over a long period of time is a highly uncertain and risky product in the position of guarantee or lending institution. Thus, suitable demand prediction of the reverse mortgage subscribers is necessary for stable and sustainable operation. This study uses a Bass diffusion model to forecast the long-term demand for reverse mortgage and provides insight into reverse mortgage by forecasting demand for stability and substantiality of the loan product. We represent the projections of new subscribers on the basis of the data obtained from Korea Housing Finance Corporation. Results show that potential market size of Korean reverse mortgage reaches approximately 760,000-1,160,000 households by 2020. We validate the results by comparing the estimate of the cumulative number of subscribers with that found in literature.

The purpose of this study is to project the supply and demand for nurses till the year 2012 and to make recommendations for establishment of proper policies regarding them. To predict the supply of nurses. a baseline projection and demographic methods were employed. The derivative demand was used to forecast the demand of nurses. The results of this study provide us with valuable information on nursing manpower planning for the 21th century. Specifically. results indicate that there will be an oversupply of nurses in the near future based on the current productivity. Based on the medical law. there will be an undersupply of nurses till 2002 but an oversupply after that. Thus. the active supply of nurses must be decreased. One way to achieve this would be decreasing the size of training and education. Thus. we recommend that the number of entrances to 4 year programs will be reduced 20% in 2004. and a reduction of 20% by 2005 in 3 year programs. The results of this study suggest the following: First. a manpower bank for nurses who are trying to reenter the market must be established. Second, improvement of education and retraining is needed for the quality control of nurses. Further studies should take into consideration the above factors.

The purposes of this study which was conducted by applying three projection formulae to the data from admission quota for paramedic of the Ministry of Education & Human Resources Development the number of ambulances the number of emergency medical centers of the Ministry of Health & Welfare and rate of successful candidates of annual report of the National Health Personnel Licensing Examination Board were to find out demand and supply of paramedic from 2002 to 2045 and to expand scope of practice of paramedic in Korea. The conclusions from this study were summarized as follows; (1) The simple formulae derived from the projection formula of the Economic Planning Board were applied under the present Emergency Medical Services Act including qualifying over 3-years experienced EMT-Basic for paramedic examinee, stationing paramedic or EMT-Basic or physician or nurse per ambulance, stationing paramedic or EMT-Basic per emergency medical center and under the amended Emergency Medical Services Act including qualifying only paramedic graduate for paramedic examinee, stationing 4.5 paramedics per ambulance, stationing 10 to 2 paramedics per emergency medical center. (2) It was estimated that on the American basis of 5.6 EMTs per 10,000 in 1996, the number of paramedics under the present act will reach the basis before 2020, the number of paramedics under the amended act will reach the basis about 2040. (3) It was estimated that on the basis of 22,000 paramedics demanded from the number of ambulances, the number of emergency medical centers in 2001, the number of paramedics under the present act will reach the basis before 2015, the number of paramedics under the amended act will reach the basis about 2030. (4) There was relationship between requirements for emergency medical centers scope of practice of paramedic in the act and demand-supply of paramedic, this necessitates surveys, studies, amendment of the act, legalization for expanded scope of practice of paramedic including EMD, instructor, teacher of safety. (5) This study which includes only expanded scope of practice of paramedic and projection for paramedic in the act needs complementary studies such as decision-making process in health manpower policy and so on.
