Bo-Hyoung Jang 교수의 연구실은 저소득 및 중간소득국가에서 전통의료의 원격의료 및 건강보험이 통합된 보편적 건강보장 체계 내 활용 현황을 체계적으로 분석하는 데 초점을 맞추고 있습니다. 특히 한국과 대만의 건강보험 데이터를 기반으로 전통의료 이용 패턴의 차이를 비교 분석하며, 전통의료가 공식 의료 시스템에 통합된 후 질병 부담 측정 및 정책적 통합 가능성을 탐색하고 있습니다. 연구는 전통의료의 실증적 근거 확보와 보편적 건강보장 실현을 위한 정책 제언을 목표로 합니다.

This paper reports the findings from the first systematic review of the utilization of traditional medicine (TM) in primary health care (PHC) in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). PHC is an important component of health care and essential for achieving universal health coverage (UHC). For countries where there is a gap in PHC, TM plays a vital role. It is widely used and has the potential to increase the coverage of PHC and UHC. Hence in situations where TM is recognized in a considerable
According to the National Health Insurance database, about one fourth of the NHI beneficiaries of South Korea and Taiwan had TM use in 2011. Different TM utilization patterns existed between South Korea and Taiwan, which might be due to the differences in insurance coverage between the two countries.

Background. Korean medicine was incorporated into the Korean Classification of Diseases (KCD) 6 through the development of U codes (U20-U99). Studies of the burden of disease have used summary measures such as disability-adjusted life years. Although Korean medicine is included in the official health care system, studies of the burden of disease that include Korean medicine are lacking. Methods. A data-based approach was used with National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort data for
An analysis of the National Health Insurance database of South Korea and Taiwan revealed different utilization patterns of traditional medicine in adult patients with allergic rhinitis between the two countries. We believe these phenomena are due to the difference in the national healthcare systems in both countries.
