Gyeonggi Province Re-recruits Private Medical Institutions for Operating Room CCTV Installation Program

[Suwon Ilbo=Park No-hun] Gyeonggi Province is re-recruiting medical institutions to participate in the 'Operating Room CCTV Installation and Support Project for Private Medical Institutions' to expand CCTV installation in operating rooms.

This re-recruitment, conducted due to insufficient participation in the first application period, will continue until the 19th. Applications can be submitted in person or by mail to the Gyeonggi Province Health and Medical Policy Division. Details are available on the Gyeonggi Province website.

The province plans to select 12 hospital-level private medical institutions to pilot CCTV installation and operation in operating rooms by the end of June, and will provide full provincial budget support of 30 million won per hospital for operating room CCTV installation costs. Any additional costs beyond the supported amount are the responsibility of each institution.

Applicants must be hospital-level private medical institutions under Article 3 of the Medical Law with operating rooms installed. Dental hospitals, Korean medicine hospitals, and long-term care hospitals are excluded.

After recruiting interested medical institutions, the province plans to conduct a final review through a selection committee in June to examine whether the institutions meet implementation requirements under relevant laws such as the Personal Information Protection Act, and will then provide installation costs.

Gyeonggi Province plans to carefully review the results of this year's pilot project and, if deemed effective, will continue to expand the CCTV installation project for private medical institutions.
