OECD 36개 회원국 중에서 우리나라와 미국에만 없는 상병수당제도는 건강보장체계 내에서 근로자의 상병으로 인한 근로능력상실에 대해 소득을 보장하는 공적 사회보장제도이다. 이 연구에서는OECD 36개국의 상병수당제도 보장내용을 비교분석해 우리나라에 도입 가능한 모형을 설계하였으며, 모형별 대상자수 및 소요재정을 추계하였다. 2018년 기준, 건강보험공단 전국민 자격 진료비청구 자료와 국세청 소득 자료를 연계해 분석한 결과, 15세 이상 소득근로자 2,124만 명 3일을 초과해 병원급 요양기관에 입·내원한 165만 명에게 보장수준에 따른 제도모형별 최소8,055억 원에서 최대 1조 7,718억 원의 재정이 소요될 것으로 추계되었다. 연구는 우리나라 도입논의를 위한 정책결정의 근거자료가 될 기대한다.
