Strengthening Publicness of National University Hospitals

I argue that the National University Hospital has to take its responsibility as the third health care service center for leading other public health care corporations, as well as its responsibility for educating, researching, and serving as a health center, as it written on its act of incorporation. As its management system had changed from a state-owned enterprise system to a self-supporting accounting system of a special corporation, the National University Hospital has pursued more heavily upon the profitability without showing any difference with the private university hospitals, even though the National University Hospital is a state-owned and public health care corporation. Therefore, after I have specifically analyzed the correlation between public service and profitability in a National University Hospital, I present my ideas on how to assign the public health care responsibilities to the National University Hospital in the current situation of pursuing heavily on profitability.
