Korean Medical Law prohibits the establishment of For-ProfitMedical Organization. Yet recently there have been the debate aboutparticipation of Capital in Medical Service since the No-Mu HyunRegime. Pro-FPMO(For-Profit Medical Organization) party believe thatthe participation of capital in the medical service area enable morejobs in the medical service area and enhance the medical consumer'sbenefit. But the For-Profit Medical Organization system in medicalarea raises the medical cost which the medical consumer have to paybecause of rise of unnecessary medical treatments in the pursuit ofprofit. In addition, the For-Profit Medical Organization system inmedical area weaken the doctor's professionalism. Therefore, it is notappropriate to introduce the corporation system in medical service area.
