On the 31st, the National Examination Center for National Health Persons in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, where the practical test of the National Doctoral Examination takes place. The national exam of the doctor, which was scheduled for the government from September 1, will be postponed every week. The decision was made due to concerns about the retirement of medical students who refused to take the practical exam in response to the expansion of the medical school’s capacity and the loss of treatment capabilities in the future. 2020.8.31 / News 1The government has decided to postpone the exam for a week just 17 hours before the start of the national exam for doctors (national exam). The government declared that “there is no postponement of the test” until the morning of the 31st, but changed its position after noon. This measure takes into account the situation in which 90% of 4th grade students in the medical school (2,839 out of 3,172 students) cancel their exams, causing a disruption in the medical discharge system next year.
● National time is canceled once
Vice Minister of Health and Social Welfare Kim Kang-rip held an emergency press conference in which he announced the postponement of the postponement at 4 pm on the 31st and said: “The situation in which there is a large number of Canceled trials will cause a problem in the medical capacity of hospitals in the future. Considering it’s great, ”he said. Even in the briefing at 11 am that day, the Ministry of Health and Welfare nailed it, saying: “There is no postponement of the practical test.”
It is known that the government was initially concerned that it would step back from the opening note that it had responded vigorously to the group suspension (strike) of the main doctors (interns, residents) if they postponed the national stance. However, the government seems to have considered that the number of national exam cancellations more than expected will have a number of adverse effects on the hiring of public health physicians, training of hospital interns and military surgeons immediately. The national poem is scheduled to take a practical exam starting in September and a written exam in January of the following year. If they do not take the practical exam this time, even if they take the written exam in January next year, the license acquisition will be delayed for a year and the system of 3,000 doctors per year will be disrupted.
There were also difficulties preparing for the exam itself. Many of the training hospital professors who join the national scoring committee refused to do so and the Ministry of Health and Welfare asked the Armed Forces Medical Command to support specialist surgeons.
● Resignation of teachers and full-time groups
Regarding the national schedule, the government seems to have resigned for a while, but the government’s confrontational front for the strongest river in the medical field remains. The Ministry of Health and Social Welfare carried out a third on-site investigation in 10 training hospitals in the non-metropolitan area and 10 emergency and intensive care units and issued an order to start work.
The level of group action of full-time medical school professors and doctors is also increasing. The professor of neurosurgery at Chung-Ang University Hospital issued a resignation letter that day. This is the first time that a faculty member has issued a group resignation letter. In a statement, the faculty said: “I will stay with the doctor until such time as the unjust and unilateral government policy is withdrawn, it is discussed again at the origin and the accusations against the main doctors are dropped.”
The surgery professors at St. Mary’s Hospital in Seoul decided to strike by suspending treatment and outpatient surgery for one day in line with the September 7 general strike announced by the Korean Medical Association. That day, 407 (90.85%) of the 448 full-time employees at Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul Bundang National University Hospital, and Boramae Hospital submitted their group resignations.
The Korean Medical Association (Daejeon Cooperative) issued a statement to President Moon Jae-in that day, saying: “What got us out of the hospital are irrational and unjust medical policies that have appeared in the world without consulting the medical community and are being driven by themselves ”. Who are our young doctors? I want to go back to the field of treatment more. Re-analyze it from the source. ”
