Abstract

Objectives:The purpose of this study is to reexamine current oriental medical treatment fees based on valuation of input resources which are the treating time, the treatment’s difficulty, and the material cost. Methods:This study obtained the following results by reviewing the answers given by 172 oriental medical doctors from March 1 to April 15, 2006. To investigate material cost, we took inventory of treatment materials used by 2 oriental hospitals. Results:The current system does not reflect well enough the treating time and treatment’s difficulty. Considering current oriental treatment fees, material costs are too much of doctors’ fees. Especially, Wang-ssuk-dduem, which is another form of moxibustion treatment, was spent as much as 74.6% on materials cost. Conclusions:The findings suggest the current oriental treatment fees should be revised to reflect the actual input resources into oriental medical doctor activities and to avoid a distortion of physicians’ behavior.
