The meeting was attended by about 40 people, including Hospital Director Kwon Jeong-taek, medical staff from Chung-Ang University Hospital’s intensive care unit and inpatient wards, and representatives from 23 inpatient transfer partner hospitals. They discussed maintaining the cooperative system for transferring patients after acute treatment of severe cases, activating related systems, and directions for development.

Additionally, eight hospitals selected as inpatient transfer nursing hospitals (Monalisa Nursing Hospital, Misodeul Nursing Hospital, Seoul Samsung Nursing Hospital, Seoul Central Nursing Hospital, Smart Nursing Hospital, Yeongdeungpo Hospital, Jeongseong Nursing Hospital, and Jejung Nursing Hospital) were awarded the 2023 inpatient transfer partner hospital certificates.

Chung-Ang University Hospital selects inpatient transfer partner hospitals among those that meet criteria such as number of beds, isolation beds, intensive care units, and whether five or more specialists provide care, focusing on medical institutions with high patient and guardian satisfaction and smooth transfer operations with the main hospital.

In particular, to facilitate smooth networking among partner hospitals, the 'Cyber Refer' system is operated to exchange information on referred and transferred patients in real time between hospitals. Furthermore, it establishes a sound medical delivery system among regional hospitals and clinics through services such as consultation, result inquiry and reply letter dispatch, and emergency/severe patient communication hotlines, providing optimal medical services to referred patients.

Director Kwon said, "As a tertiary general hospital, Chung-Ang University Hospital maintains a cooperative network with over 2,500 medical institutions nationwide and has a medical cooperation system that transfers patients requiring continuous care after acute and severe treatment to medical institutions appropriate to their severity and needs. Through this meeting, I hope it will be an opportunity to further strengthen close cooperation and an organic medical network between our hospital and inpatient transfer partner hospitals."
