[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Dong-guk] On the 19th at 12 a.m., Ulsan City will sign a "Business Agreement for Strengthening the Medical Treatment System for Severe Patients in the Ulsan Area and Advancing the Medical Delivery System" in the Mayor's Reception Room on the 7th floor of the main building.

This agreement aims to prevent the concentration phenomenon of emergency and severe patients in the Ulsan area at Ulsan University Hospital and the outflow of patients outside the region, and to provide high-quality medical services and mutual cooperation by establishing a medical delivery system among emergency medical institutions for patient referrals and transfers.

The agreement involves the city and Ulsan University Hospital, Donggang Hospital, Ulsan Hospital, Jungang Hospital, Joeun Samjeong Hospital, Ulsan City Hospital, and Seoulsan Boram Hospital.

The city will work to improve the utilization rate of severe patients within the area and advance emergency medical services.

The regional responsible medical institution (Ulsan University Hospital) will be in charge of severe patient-centered treatment and, as a regional emergency medical institution, will handle the transfer of general patients, education on the cooperative network among emergency medical institutions, and service support.

Regional emergency medical (center) institutions will refer severe patients to the regional responsible medical institution and manage the treatment of transferred patients.

Through this agreement, Ulsan City expects improvements in medical services for emergency and severe patients among emergency medical institutions, reduction in medical expenses, shortening of treatment periods, improvement of the medical delivery system, enhancement of medical quality, and mutual growth of emergency medical institutions.

A city official said, "We thank the emergency medical institutions that shared the purpose of this project," and added, "We will continue to strive to advance the treatment and delivery system for severe patients in the Ulsan area."
