title: Standardization of the nationwide health examination in Korea.
abstract: The Korea Medical Insurance Corporation has held the periodic Health Examination for the public servants and teachers from 1977 as a nationwide health preventive task. But the Health Examination result is not computerized rather than paperwork, so the use of the Health Examination is limited and the results of Health Examination can not be stored or interchangeable between hospitals or health examination centers in this system. So we planed the Standardization of the Nationwide Health Examination project and developed the Health Examination computer program in 1996. The object of standardized program is to contribute to cost-effective analysis of each item or other studies about the factors influences development of diseases. And now, an Exhibition work for the standardization is being held with the Health Examination computer program. At the ending of the Exhibition work, we will evaluation and revision the computerized program for standardization process.
