|
The knowledge on oriental medicine has become an important factor of medical records administrators in successfully accomplishing their jobs with the emerging oriental medicine demands. The study was planned to confirm the condition and need on oriental medicine education of medical records administrators working in oriental medicine hospitals.
This study surveyed all 55 medical records administrators registered in the Korean Society of Medical Records Administrators who were working in oriental medicine hospitals and collected 54 responses (98.2%). The survey contents contained previous education experience and satisfaction on oriental medicine, the need of oriental medicine education.
Medical records administrators who received previous education on oriental medicine were about 30% of the total. Most of them were trained by a part of the policy of the oriental medicine hospital for average 10-19 hours. And the satisfaction level was not high. The highest reason for the need of education on oriental medicine was the increase of joint treatment of western-oriental medicine. Many respondents agreed that oriental medicine terminology, classification of diseases in oriental medicine, management of oriental medical records should be included as compulsory courses in college curriculum.
The oriental medicine sector is a ‘blue ocean’ market and the demand for medical records administrators will surely be increased in the near future. This is why the subjects on oriental medicine should be included in the license examination and the college curriculum for the medical records administrator.
