This study was conducted to identify differences in job characteristics, and levels of job burnout and job satisfaction of medical tourism coordinators. It also aimed to discover a relationship among variables, and to identify impacting factors on job satisfaction. 102 subjects participated in this study. They were employees at domestic medical organizations which are officially certified to treat overseas patients in South Korea. The findings of this study were as follows. The mean scores were 3.84 out of 5 for job characteristics, 2.98 out of 7 for job burnout, and 3.46 out of 5 for job satisfaction. The levels of medical tourism coordinators’ job burnout (p=.042) and satisfaction (p=.039) were discovered to be different according to their work locations. However, job characteristics did not differ according to general characteristics. In this study, a positive correlation between job characteristics and job satisfaction (p=.008) along with a negative correlation between job burnout and job satisfaction (p<.001) was discovered. Moreover, it was found that job characteristics and burnout were impacting factors on job satisfaction accounting for 38.4% of job satisfaction. Thus, it is important not only to define job characteristics more clearly through job analysis, but also to analyze the factors likely to result in job burnout in order to increase job satisfaction.
