초록
Patient safety becomes a major health policy issue since the Institute of Medicine report, To Err is Hu- man. Patient Safety Act shall come into operation on the 29th of July 2016 in Korea. This law empha- sizes the importance of shared learning based on voluntary, confidential, and non-punitive reporting of patient safety incidents at the national level. In addition patient safety indicators and standards will be introduced after enforcing this law. Recently several policies around patient safety issues (for exam- ple, limiting resident duty hour and expanding the coverage of telemedicine) are under debate. With this change in healthcare policy environment, more technology assessment activities in the field of pa- tient safety will be needed. In this context producing and synthesizing evidence for patient safety prac- tices will be one of very important areas for health technology assessment (HTA) in Korea. Patient safety issues come not only from traditional clinical areas (e.g., adverse drug events, surgical complica- tions) and emerging clinical areas (e.g., provider fatigue, information transfer), but also from non- medical approach (e.g., information technology, human factors research). But little is known about many patient safety technologies. This may be attributed to several factors; the relatively weak infra- structure for patient safety HTA; the rapid introduction of patient safety technologies; differences in HTA methodology between typical biomedical technologies and patient safety technologies. Increased government funding for supporting patient safety research in Korea will contribute to more patient safety HTA, leading to evidence-based policy making for patient safety.
Abstract
Patient safety becomes a major health policy issue since the Institute of Medicine report, To Err is Hu- man. Patient Safety Act shall come into operation on the 29th of July 2016 in Korea. This law empha- sizes the importance of shared learning based on voluntary, confidential, and non-punitive reporting of patient safety incidents at the national level. In addition patient safety indicators and standards will be introduced after enforcing this law. Recently several policies around patient safety issues (for exam- ple, limiting resident duty hour and expanding the coverage of telemedicine) are under debate. With this change in healthcare policy environment, more technology assessment activities in the field of pa- tient safety will be needed. In this context producing and synthesizing evidence for patient safety prac- tices will be one of very important areas for health technology assessment (HTA) in Korea. Patient safety issues come not only from traditional clinical areas (e.g., adverse drug events, surgical complica- tions) and emerging clinical areas (e.g., provider fatigue, information transfer), but also from non- medical approach (e.g., information technology, human factors research). But little is known about many patient safety technologies. This may be attributed to several factors; the relatively weak infra- structure for patient safety HTA; the rapid introduction of patient safety technologies; differences in HTA methodology between typical biomedical technologies and patient safety technologies. Increased government funding for supporting patient safety research in Korea will contribute to more patient safety HTA, leading to evidence-based policy making for patient safety.
