Abstract

Recently, desires for diversification of medical treatment throughout our society have been enhanced. It is thought that such a trend may be directly related to the introduction of 'alternative medicine'. This study is to establish the foundation of legalization of alternative medicine, starting with the movement for legalization of alternative medicine from constitutionality decision of medical law by the legal Information Constitutional Court. It also suggested the direction of discussion with issue of how to introduce alternative medicine beyond the stage of basic discussion, 'why' we must introduce alternative medicine, through profound investigation of preceding studies. In addition, the present study analyzed legal controversies from the appearance of alternative medicine based on the decisions of the Constitutional Court and the precedents of the Supreme Court and drew the prerequisites for the institutionalization of alternative medical treatments. It also reestablished terms of alternative medicine which have been indiscreetly used, presented methods for officialization of alternative medicine and compared and analyzed advantages and disadvantages of the methods.

사회 전반에 의료의 다원화 혹은 다변화를 요구하는 열망이 높아져 가고 있다. 이는 '대체의학'의 도입과 직결된 문제라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는, 최근 법률정보에 따르면 헌법재판소의 의료법에 대한 합헌결정으로 불거진 대체의학의 제도화 움직임을 시작으로 향후 대체의학의 제도화 모델을 결론으로 그 내용을 담았다. 이는 대체의학을 '왜' 도입하여야 하는가의 논의단계를 지나 '어떻게' 대체의학을 도입할 것인가의 문제로 논의의 방향성을 제시함과 동시에 선행연구들을 면밀히 분석하여 재조명하므로 써 지금까지 축적되어온 연구 자료들을 충분히 고찰 하고자 하였다. 헌법재판소 판결 및 대법원 판례를 바탕으로 대체의학으로 야기되는 법적 쟁점 사항을 분석하고 대체의료행위가 제도화 되기 위한 선결요건을 도출하였다. 또한 무분별하게 사용되고 있는 대체의학에 관한 용어사용을 재정립하고 향후 대체의학을 공인화 한다면 그 방법은 어떻게 되어야 하는지 그 방안을 제시, 방안 별 장단점을 분석하였다.
