Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the degree of satisfaction with indirect medical oversight programs and its determinants.
Methods: Gumi 119 rescuers participated in indirect medical oversight programs, including Emergency Medical Services (EMS) record review, weekly visiting education, and monthly EMS conference from March 2012 to February 2013. Data were collected using a mail survey with a selfadministered questionnaire. The degree of satisfaction with the programs was categorized according to two groups (1=satisfied, 2=unsatisfied). Then the Mann-Whitney U test and Fisher`s exact test were performed in order to find statistically significant factors influencing satisfaction.
Results: Cronbach ¥áof questionnaires was 0.869. Among the 59 questionnaires, 55(93.2%) were returned. No differences in sex, age, career, EMS record review, monthly conference, linkage with direct medical direction, and improvement of confidence in ER medical team were observed between the two groups. Qualification, weekly visiting program, and improvement in reliability to hospital showed statistical significance (p=0.017, 0.040 and 0.001, respectively).
Conclusion: The level of qualification of 119 rescuers and weekly visiting education at the fire department by doctors has had a significant influence on satisfaction with indirect medical oversight.
