Korea Medical Association


The Korea Medical Association is a trade union in South Korea. It claims to represent about two-thirds of the country's doctors.
In June 2000, the Association organised an indefinite strike in protest of government health reforms. On March 10, 2014 it organised a one-day strike in opposition to the government's plans to introduce telemedicine and against medical regulations they claimed infringed upon physicians' professional autonomy.
The Association publishes the Journal of the Korea Medical Association. Volume 60 was published in March 2017.
