정읍시, 필수의료체계 구축 시범사업 선정…서남권 소아의료 허브 본격화

Jeongeup City has been finally selected for the public offering of the Ministry of Health and Welfare's pilot project to establish a collaborative essential medical system in local areas, accelerating the establishment of a pediatric medical hub in the southwestern region.

Jeongeup City announced on the 13th that it has secured a total budget of 12.83 billion won, including 6.415 billion won in national funds and 6.415 billion won in local funds, through this selection.

The secured budget will be allocated to building and operating a pediatric outpatient clinic center and a children's ward at Jeongeup Asan Hospital as the hub hospital, as well as establishing a pediatric medical cooperation system.

Since 2024, the city has been gradually promoting the installation of a pediatric outpatient clinic center and a children's ward in cooperation with Jeongeup Asan Hospital in the southwestern region, and it started full operation in May last year. Currently, pediatric and adolescent specialists provide consultations from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., and they also respond to nighttime emergencies through an on-duty system and an emergency room coordination system after the end of consultations and on holidays.

Jeongeup City plans to strengthen the local comprehensive essential medical system by establishing a cooperative network linking regional pediatric and adolescent medical institutions, health centers, and emergency medical systems centered around Jeongeup Asan Hospital.

Jeongeup Mayor Lee Hak-soo said, "It is a meaningful achievement in protecting the health rights of local residents," and added, "We will create a stable medical environment to make it a nationwide model case and do our best to establish Jeongeup Asan Hospital as a pediatric medical hub in the southwestern region."
