Abstract
|
|
|
|
The shortage of internal medicine residents depict the contradictions and perversions in Korean medical system. Internal medicine is the foundation of medicine and the fact it serves as the most essential medical services for the people adds severe gravity to the issue. The fundamental problem derives from the contradictions in health insurance system. In fact, the poor medical fee and the failure of medical delivery system are the core drawbacks to the current crisis. Unless above matters are addressed to draw a constructive resolution, it is an undeniable fact that this may become a serious threat to the national health system and people’s wellbeing.
