ABSTRACT
In March 2011, after a series of discussions, the Korean government released a basic plan for functional reestablishment of medical institutions. However, the policy has ended up reestablishing the functions and roles of medical institutions without considering the advance of medical technologies and the emergence of new forms of providers. The advances of the medical knowledge and technologies enable the provision of lower-cost, higher-quality, more accessible healthcare services. Therefore, the reestablishment of medical institutions' functions needs to be done on the basis of medical technology advancement. In this article, policy suggestions and managerial implications for healthcare service providers are discussed based on disruptive innovation. It is expected to contribute to the discussions on the healthcare delivery system of Korea.
