Methods: This study performs trend analysis and logistic regression analysis on the patient survey data produced by Korea Institute for Health and Social Affair. Results: The results show that the average annual increase rate of outpatients and inpatients from 1990 to 2010 was 9.1% and 0.6% respectively. The most frequently used medical facility type was primary care institutions in case of outpatients and secondary care hospitals in case of inpatients. The comparison on the differences in medical resource utilization behavior between hypertension patients and other disease patients was performed in terms of gender, facility type, and age group etc. Conclusions: The rate of increase in hypertension patients has declined, however, the increasing trend continues. The type of institution used was converged on the primary care facilities. The utilization rate showed a large variation among the geographical regions. Base on the results several political implications were discussed.
