Two years have passed since hospital accreditation was introduced in Korea by the Korean Institute of Healthcare Accreditation (KOIHA), which takes, as its mission, continuously improving healthcare quality and patient safety for the public. KOIHA also has a plan to impose on outcomes in management of patient care. With a view to enhance the practice of accreditation in terms of quality as well as quantity, and to help improve healthcare quality and patient safety in Korea, this paper reviews some issues on healthcare policies which are expected to be adopted in 2013 by the forthcoming government. A few suggestions are added.
