Objectives : This study was aimed to survey the perception of public official on public health promotion programs in Traditional Korean Medicine (PHPP-TKM). Methods : Data were collected from 129 public officials who were in charge of PHPP-TKM business in the public health centers using the structured questionnaire. Collected data were analyzed through frequency analysis and T-test using SPSS 13.0. Results : Even though stroke prevention programs are implemented most often at present, respondents hope to practice dementia prevention programs in the future. The obstructive factor was measured by 5-point Likert scale, and the most obstructive factor was that there were neither standard manuals nor methodological guidelines for the programs($3.73{\pm}0.97$). The second most obstructive factor was that TKM-PHPP duplicated other public health programs($3.67{\pm}1.07$). The plan to activate TKM-PHPP was also measured by 5-point Likert scale. The most suggested plan was to develop competitive programs ($4.20{\pm}0.88$). The second most suggested plan was that of various integration of public health programs ($4.14{\pm}0.80$). Conclusions : The result of survey questionnaire suggests to develop various integrated programs, and to draw up a standard manual to activate the TKM-PHPP in public health centers.
