Abstract

|
|
Moon Jae-in Care can be seen as a 2.0 version of Roh Moo-Hyun Care. Just as Roh Care failed to achieve its coverage rate goal and30% share of public beds, Moon Care also failed to achieve its expected goal. The reason is that it followed Roh Care’s failed strategy.
Failure to control non-covered services has led to a long way to achieve a 70% coverage rate and induced the expansion of voluntaryindemnity insurance, resulting in increased public burden. The universal coverage of non-covered services caused an immediatebacklash from doctors. And Moon government also failed to control the private insurance market. The expansion of publicly ownedbeds has not become realized and has not obtained public support. Above all, it failed to overcome the resistance of doctors andfailed to obtain consent from budget power groups in the cabinet for public investment. It was also insufficient to win the supportof civic groups. Communication with interested groups failed and the role of private health care providers was neglected. The nextgovernment should also continue to strengthen health care coverage, but it should prioritize preventing medical poor and create aconsensus with both medical providers and consumers for the control of non-covered services. Ahead of the super-aged society, theestablishment of linkage between medical services and long-term care and visiting health care or welfare services is an importanttask. All public and private provisions and resources should be utilized in the view of a comprehensive public health perspective, andpublic investment should be input in sectors where public medical institutions can perform more effective functions. The nextgovernment, which will be launched in 2022, should design a new paradigm for health care in the face of a period of transformation,such as the coming super-aged society in 2026 and the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and recognize that the capabilities of the healthcare system represent the nation’s overall capacity.
