Objective : In Oriental medicine, the concept of Preventive Treatment Disease(治未病, PTD) is intended toactively deal with changes in modern disease patterns due to increase in chronic diseases. In China, preventivehealth service program based on PTD Theory are being carried out aimed at improving and/or preventingpeople’s health.
Method : For the introduction of PTD program based preventive service in Korea for the promotion ofpeople’s health, I would like to consider its possibility by reviewing the PTD program being conducted inChina.
Results : China’s preventive health service programs based on PTD Theory started in 2008 for the purposeof promoting people’s health and reducing medical expenses by providing medical services tailored to individuals. Regarding the effects of PTD program based preventive health service, improvement of discomfortingsymptoms comprised 73.04% of responses. As to service items, health guidance, Traditional Chinese Medicinaldiagnosis, and preparation of health records were answered as being important. The importance of foodand internal medicines for preventing and/or curing PTD Theory are also recognized. Also, as to satisfactionlevel, 90.64% responded as being satisfied in the order of the level of service providers, their attitudes,service processes, items, costs, and environments.
Conclusion : As shown above, according to assessments on China’s PTD programs, the PTD Theory is beingapplied to actual public health programs with highly effective results. Hence, it can be seen that suchattempt could also be implemented in Korea as part of a scheme for promoting health by means of Koreanmedicine health promotion programs. However, further researches into concrete implementation schemeswill have to be developed in the future as medical systems are different in Korea from in China.
