Background: This study uses the relevance index to understand the condition of regional medical service use for cardiovascular surgery and to identify the medical service use imbalance between regions. Methods: This study calculated the relevance index of 16 metropolitan cities and provinces using resident registration address data from the Ministry of Government Administration and Home Affairs and the 2010-2014 health insurance, medical care assistance, and medical benefits claims data from the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service. We identified developments over the 5-year time period and analyzed the level of regional imbalance regarding cardiovascular surgery through the relative comparison of relevance indexes between cardiovascular and other types of surgery. Results: The relevance index was high in large cities such as Seoul, Daegu, and Gwangju, but low in regions that were geographically far from the capital area, such as the Gangwon and Jeju areas. Relevance indexes also fell as the years passed. Cardiovascular surgery has a relatively low relevance index compared to key types of surgery of other fields, such as neurosurgery and colorectal surgery. Conclusion: This study identified medical service use imbalance between regions for cardiovascular surgery. Results of this study demonstrate the need for political intervention to enhance the accessibility of necessary special treatment, such as cardiovascular surgery.

현재 우리나라의 재가간호서비스는 보건소의 맞춤형 방문건강관리사업과 의료기관 가정간호사업, 그리고 노인장기요양보험의 방문간호서비스의 독립성과 전문성을 인정하면서, 각 영역간의 연계를 통해 사업의 중복성을 최소화하는 연계방안이 필요한 상황이다. 이에 본 연구는 재가간호서비스의 연계방안을 도출하기 위해 전문가들의 의견을 바탕으로 합의를 이끌어내는 델파이 기법을 활용하였다. 그 결과 제도적 차원의 연계와 의료적 차원의 연계라는 두 영역 안의 총 24개 항목이 연계방안으로 도출되었다. 재가간호서비스의 연계방안으로 도출된 24개의 항목은 재가간호사업 체계의 개선과 제공되는 서비스 질의 향상, 대상자의 만족도 증대 효과를 가져 올 수 있을 것으로 기대되며, 서비스의 중복을 최소화할 수 있는 방안을 모색함으로서 국가적 차원에서 복지 및 국민 건강관리의 효율성을 증대할 것으로 보인다. 이를 통해 궁극적으로 국민의료비의 절감과 더불어 재가간호서비스 증진에 기여할 것으로 여겨진다.

Methods: Of persons who underwent health screening and were classified as having health risks after periodic health screening by NHI in 2003, persons who took the follow-up management service were selected as case group and persons who took no service were selected as control group. The DW database of NHI was used to explore the effect of the follow-up management service on the modification of health status and lifestyle. Chi-square tests were conducted with SAS 9.1 to examine the differences of health promotion effect between case vs. control group. Results: It was shown that of lifestyle behaviors, only exercise was significantly improved for case group compared with control group as the effect of the follow-up management service by NHI (2.98%p) (p<.0001). Further, morbidity rate for control group was 2% higher than that of case group (p <.0001), which indicates that persons who received the follow-up management service better maintained their health significantly than persons who did not. Conclusions: The present study shows that the appropriate follow-up management services need to be provided for maximizing potential effect of periodic health screening by NHI.

Currently, it is not easy for most domestic public libraries to collect and provide reliable health information services on their own. Health information is distributed or professional, making it inconvenient for users to use. Based on the implications derived from the case study, the Library Health Information Integration Service Model was proposed as a specialized information service. The model consists of a composition shared by librarians, health and medical experts, and users, focusing on library websites that provide integrated health information integration services, and has the following features. First, it provides health and medical information on a specialized subject. Second, it provides integrated health and medical information services provided in various ways. Third, librarians and health and medical experts work together to provide information services. Fourth, users can freely use health information integration services online and offline. The model presented in this study means that libraries can play a leading role in health information integration services to increase the utilization rate of public libraries and further contribute to librarians serving as experts in health information services.
