Abstract

|
This paper analysed the RBRVS for a doctor’s consultation by measuring the time consumed in outpatient consultation, and compared the time among medical doctors, dentist, and oriental medical doctors. The time used in consultation could be a proxy for measuring RBRVS for medical services because it is the only common factor we observe in three different clinical settings. The results show that the optimal RBRVS for consultation is 183.22 for medical doctor, 99.12 for dentist, and 236.17 for oriental medical doctor. This implies the current fee schedule for consultation should be revised as 10,740 Won for a visit to medical doctor, 5,808 Won for dentist, and 13,832 Won for oriental medical doctor.
