The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of multiple chronic diseases experience of frequent medical service user living in the rural area which can provide basic data on the chronic disease policy Methods: The participants of the study were multiple chronic patients with more than 4 chronic diseases among the highest 1% of all medical service users based on the National Health Insurance claims data of 2013. Patient and their doctors randomly selected, qualified researchers performed semi-structured in-depth interviews. 10 cases as ‘residents’ of the rural area and 3 cases of doctors were analyzed using the consensual qualitative research method. Results: The subject areas of the individual cases were extracted from thematic domain: the perception of cause of the disease, the local primary medical institution, and the disease management behavior, five key concepts were extracted to explain the disease experience characteristics of the chronic disease patients in the rural area. For cross cases it has been shown that the experience of multiple chronic illnesses is a trail of a tough life, being fixed through repetitive controlling body to work. In addition, the lack of medical goals and the visit to medical institutions as a leisure activity shows that there was a need to understand the nature of the disease experience in the organizational context of the healthcare infrastructure. Conclusion: Chronic diseases can’t be cured, and the improvement and deterioration of the condition are repeated throughout life, so a supportive primary health care is essential as well as self-management in rural area keywords: Multiple Chronic Conditions, Medical Overuse, Attitude to Health, Rural Health Services","PeriodicalId":436988,"journal":{"name":"The Korean Journal of Public Health","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127256918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: The study used Andersen model (1968) to examine healthcare utilization, and determinants including predisposing, enabling, need factors and health behaviors were analyzed. The data were from the 4th wave of Korea Health Panel (KHP) and the two-part model was applied to determine factors affecting outpatient healthcare utilization itself and the volume. Results: Subjective health status and chronic disease were common important affecting factors. Other factors like education level, marital status and health behaviors had partial influence on healthcare utilization. Income level showed a significant impact only for the employee group. On the other hand, economic participation showed a significant impact only for the self-employed group. The result implies that each group has different affecting factors as per one’s enrollment type, i.e. the type of labor in Korean setting. Conclusion: Based on the findings, this study suggests that each sub-group experiences different barriers to healthcare access. Thus, it is important for health policy makers to understand and take account of those differences when developing policies to enhance accessibility to healthcare. keywords: Healthcare Utilization, Enrolment Type, Healthcare Accessibility","PeriodicalId":436988,"journal":{"name":"The Korean Journal of Public Health","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122172981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
