| Popis: | The year 2020 marks the 112th year of the Korean Medical Association (KMA), which is a historic organization of medical experts. Since its foundation the KMA has contributed to the promotion of the health and medical care environment as well as the establishment and development of related policies. In times of health and medical care crises in the country, the KMA has always fought at the front lines. However, recent internal conflicts in the medical community have caused a lack of consistency and persistence in responding to or pursuing various health and medical policies. It weakens the KMA’s social status and influence, raising demands for its improvement. The first step for the betterment of the KMA is to analyze its critical situation. This study assumes that the internal conflicts are caused by the KMA’s governance. Through an analysis of how the KMA is currently governed, this study highlights the problems and suggests a direction for improvement. |
