[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Myung-jin] Daejain Hospital, located in Jeonju City, Jeollabuk-do, received the highest grade in the adequacy evaluation of hemodialysis.

On the 27th, Daejain Hospital announced that it received a Grade 1 rating in the recently released "6th Hemodialysis Adequacy Evaluation" by the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service.

Hemodialysis is a treatment method in which a patient's blood is passed through a dialysis machine connected to a device that filters out excess water and waste, and then the cleansed blood is returned to the patient's body.

This method is known to yield good results only when accurate diagnosis, equipment, and facilities are properly supported.

The Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service conducted an evaluation targeting 839 institutions nationwide that possessed hemodialysis equipment and had outpatient claims for hemodialysis from March to August last year.

Daejain Hospital scored above the average of all hospitals in all 13 indicators, including personnel-related indicators such as hemodialysis specialists, possession of emergency equipment in the hemodialysis room related to patient safety, the number of isolated hemodialysis machines for hepatitis B patients, adequacy of hemodialysis, and arteriovenous fistula vascular management.

As a result of this evaluation, only Jeonbuk National University Hospital and Daejain Hospital in Jeollabuk-do received Grade 1 ratings.
