Supply more resources such as Soonchunhyang University
The government offsets the ‘bed occupancy fee’
As of the 20th, there were only two beds (Seoul) left in the metropolitan area as of the 20th, where critically ill patients with novel coronavirus (Corona 19) infection can be admitted immediately. Of the remaining metropolitan cities, a total of nine beds remain in Ulsan, Gyeongnam and Jeju.
Many hospitals are in an emergency when the government ordered a high-level general hospital to insure 1% of authorized beds as corona 19 critically ill beds. However, Soonchunhyang University Bucheon Hospital and Soonchunhyang University Hospital Chungbuk National University supported a ‘base dedicated hospital’ that should secure more than double the beds for critically ill patients (more than 5-10% of approved beds).
Because Corona 19 critically ill beds require more space, the actual increase in Corona 19 critically ill beds is 2-4% of authorized beds. In the case of Soonchunhyang University Bucheon Hospital, construction is underway to convert 80 beds (20 in critical condition, 60 general) on the 3rd floor of the annex to 20 corona patients19 (9 in critical condition, 11 moderately) and it is planned go into operation later this month. Instead, the net reduction was reduced to 8 by increasing 12 non-crown critically ill beds to 19 in the main building.
Among general hospitals, Pyeongtaek Park Ae Hospital is scheduled to be remodeled as the first hospital in charge of receiving only Corona 19 patients, and will be operated from the 25th day. National Health Insurance Ilsan Hospital first converts 270 beds, which is approximately a third of the 824 beds, in 107 beds for seriously and moderately ill patients with Corona 19 in three stages (19, 23, 28). The government also decided to convert the remaining 554 beds to those with Corona 19 patients. Namyangju’s Hyundai Hospital also plans to convert more than a third of all hospital beds. The government announced that it would convert Sejong Chungnam National University Hospital into a dedicated hospital.
The success of hospitals participating in COVID-19 bed conversion is due to voluntary government support and various support measures. The government subsidizes the cost of purchasing mobile sound pressure equipment that does not exceed the upper limit. Also, because the government uses the concept of renting a bed, it compensates for the period of change to a bed for Corona 19 patients. During the period of operation of a dedicated base hospital, the average daily hospital admission (excluding some items ) is divided by the number of beds and the ‘bed occupancy rate’ multiplied by 10 to 1, depending on whether it is severe or moderate, and whether the beds are empty or working, and medical services are added. Pay your health insurance benefits. Labor rates range from 100,000 won to 700,000 won per bed.
For a high-level general hospital to operate 10 seriously ill COVID-19 patients, more than 60 experienced critical care nurses are required, but only 15-20 of the 60 general hospital-level nurses need to be staffed as experienced critical care nurses.
