The government and ‘Hannara’ party want to establish profit hospital in Jeju Special Self-Governing Province and Song-do international city. This is not a first time. In 2008, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province’s governor tried to propel establishing profit hospital. He said that it make many jobs for province citizen and has huge economic effect in Jeju. He promoted this plan. They take a public-opinion poll to Jeju citizen. The result was that 38.2% agree with his plan, but 39.9% disagree with that plan. However, in 2009, he changed the name from profit hospital to opened invest hospital and started to propel it again. I totally disagree with the establishing profit hospital because medical is not object that can deal, it is the beginning of the privatization of health care and it brings polarization of health care.

First of all, medical treatment cannot be traded each other. Patrick Pelloux who is medical treatment revolution crusader said that “Medical treatment is not the object that can be sold and bought. If doctor works with the economical logic, they start to see only patients’ diseases not the patients itself.” Medical treatment is action that should include justice. It is holy thing. Also, there are some rules that can protect the medical treatment from market. In medical law 33rd, a doctor and nonprofit cooperate only can establish medical institution. In the case of nonprofit cooperate hospital, all income through the treatment have to be used only for re-invest.

In addition, it is the beginning of the privatization of health care. If the hospital tries to get profit from patients, they will build fancy building to attract rich people. In this situation, the price will be increase necessarily. For example, in U.S, when women give baby birth, they have to pay huge money close 30000 dollars in the fancy hospital. Therefore, the women cannot stay there until they recover. In Europe, when women give baby birth, they don’t pay anything. Even though they have to pay 40% of the salary, they think that it is worth. In Korea, women who give baby birth have to pay 360000 won which is already decreased by benefit of medical insurance. Korea medical insurance is mixed by market medical system and public medical system. Many people satisfy this Korea medical insurance.

Also, profit hospital brings polarization of health care. Rich people want to go fancy hospital which is profit hospital because they can afford to pay the huge money. The rich enrolls the private insurance. This phenomenon destroys present medical insurance system. Medical treatment has to be always fair. This is everyone’s right.

There is no country that has nice and efficient treatment insurance system like Korea. Korea’s medical skill is already high and the equipment is better than other countries have. Therefore, people get high medical service without any profit hospital. Competition is not the only one right answer.
