Abstract
|
|
|
BACKGROUND : This study aimed to derive implications by comparing and analyzing foreign cases in relation to support for treatment of severe diseases, and by examining institutionalization plans discussed in Korea.
METHODS : In analyzing domestic and foreign policy trends related to treatment support for severe diseases, the scope of
investigation of target diseases and support systems was set, and foreign cases were organized according to institutional/
financial indicators. Domestic cases mainly referred to the contents of the review of the current 21st National Assembly.
Descriptive statistical analysis and testing were conducted using SPSS.
RESULTS : Foreign cases were divided into countries that operate special support systems and other countries, and a total of 18 domestic cases were reviewed for institutionalization measures. In Korea, the key issues are ‘whether the special support system is redundant and efficient’ and ‘financing methods’.
CONCLUSION : In the future, it is necessary to precede the process of identifying the patient's burden of treatment for severe diseases and the current status of support through the existing system, and more precisely estimating the required finances until reimbursement.
