Reasons
1. Summary of grounds for appeal;
A. Defendant 1’s assertion
The punishment sentenced by the court below against the defendant (the imprisonment of eight months, the suspension of execution of two years, and the forfeiture) is too unreasonable.
B. Defendant 2 (Counter-board: Defendant 1) and Defendant 3 (Counter-board: Defendant 2)
(1) misunderstanding of facts or misapprehension of legal principles
㈎ 이 사건 ○○병원(이하 ‘○○병원’이라고만 한다)은 피고인 3(대판:피고인 2)이 개설, 운영한 의료기관일 뿐 피고인 3(대판:피고인 2)과 피고인 2(대판:피고인 1)가 동업으로 개설, 운영한 의료기관이 아님에도 원심은 사실을 오인하거나 법리를 오해하여 비의료인의 의료기관개설로 인한 의료법위반죄와 요양급여비용 및 의료급여비용 편취로 인한 특정경제범죄가중처벌등에관한법률위반(사기)죄를 유죄로 인정하였다(피고인 2(대판:피고인 1)의 변호인은 의료급여비용의 경우 지방자치단체가 지급하는 것이므로 피해자 국민건강보험공단에 대한 사기죄의 객체가 되지 않는다고도 주장한다).
㈏ 피고인들은 공소외 16이 피부비만센터를 운영하면서 영리 목적으로 무면허 의료행위를 하는 데 공모하거나 가담한 사실이 없음에도 원심은 사실을 오인하거나 법리를 오해하여 이 부분 보건범죄단속에관한특별조치법위반(부정의료업자)죄를 유죄로 인정하였다.
(2) Unreasonable sentencing
The punishment of the court below against the defendants (the defendant 2 (the defendant 1), three years of imprisonment, five million won of fine, and three years of fine, five million won of fine, and five million won of fine against the defendant 3 (the defendant 2) is too unreasonable.
C. Prosecutor’s assertion
(1) misunderstanding of facts or misapprehension of legal principles
Although Defendant 1, who is non-medical person, operated the skin room separately from the building of ○○ Hospital, was able to recognize the fact that Defendant 1 committed an unlicensed medical act and conspired to divide the profits therefrom, the lower court acquitted the Defendants of violating the Act on Special Measures for the Control of Public Health Crimes (unlawful medical person) among the facts charged against the Defendants.
(2) Unreasonable sentencing
Each of the above types of punishment sentenced by the court below against the defendants is unfair as it is too unfortunate.
2. Determination
A. Judgment on the misapprehension of the legal principles or misconception of facts by Defendant 2 (Counter-board: Defendant 1), Defendant 3 (Counter-board: Defendant 2)
(1) On the violation of the Medical Service Act
An act of establishing a medical institution prohibited by Article 33(2) and Article 87(1)2 of the Medical Service Act means that a non-medical person treats facilities and human resources of the medical institution from a leading point of view, such as recruitment and management, report on establishment, implementation of medical business, raising of necessary funds, and reversion of the operational performance thereof. It is reasonable to interpret that a non-medical person constitutes an act of establishing a medical institution prohibited by the Medical Service Act in cases where even if a non-medical person engaged in the same business with a medical person, it can be evaluated that a non-medical person led to the establishment and operation of the medical institution (see Supreme Court Decisions 2009Do2629, Oct. 27, 201; 2003Du1493, Sept. 23, 2003).
Comprehensively taking account of the evidence duly adopted and examined by the lower court and the lower court, the following circumstances are revealed.
Defendant 1 did not merely assist the acquisition of ○○○ Hospital by Defendant 2 (Seoul: Defendant 2) but took charge of the affairs of acquisition. In other words, Nonindicted 1, who actually operated ○○ Hospital, the telegraph of ○○○ Hospital, requested Nonindicted 2 to transfer the ○○ Hospital to Nonindicted 2, who is in charge of consulting on the hospital. Nonindicted 2, who posted the advertisement on the transfer of ○○○ Hospital, on the Internet. The above advertisement was reported by Defendant 2 (large: Defendant 1) and the agreement between Nonindicted 2 and Defendant 2 (Large: Defendant 1), and the agreement on the transfer and takeover of ○○○ Hospital was reached between Nonindicted 2 and Defendant 2 (Large: Defendant 1). The transfer and takeover of the comprehensive agreement on the preparation of ○○○ Hospital was made to Nonindicted 2, the transferee of ○○ Hospital, stating that the agreement was signed by the transferee of ○○ Hospital, and the agreement was made to the transferee of ○○ Hospital, and the agreement was made to the transferee of ○○ Hospital.
In the process of opening the ○○ Hospital, Defendant 2 (Seoul: Defendant 1) took part in a deep night. Defendant 2 (Seoul: Defendant 1) introduced Nonindicted 3, who was the name of opening the ○ Hospital, to Defendant 3 (Seoul: Defendant 2) and concluded the building lease agreement on the ○ Hospital as an agent of Nonindicted 3. Meanwhile, Defendant 3 (Large-board: Defendant 2) cited Nonindicted 4 as part of the fund for opening the ○ Hospital. On the other hand, Defendant 4 (Large-board: Defendant 1) was the long time of opening the ○ Hospital. On the other hand, Defendant 3 (Large-board: Defendant 2) made a statement that Nonindicted 4 was not aware of Nonindicted 4 from the police, and Nonindicted 4 transferred Nonindicted 5 to Nonindicted 5, 5, and paid Nonindicted 30 million won to Nonindicted 5, 300 million won from the proceeds of selling the ○ Hospital to ○○ Hospital, and Defendant 2 (Defendant 2: Defendant 2) made a confirmation that he was Defendant 3 and Defendant 3: Defendant 2.
In the process of operating the ○○ Hospital, it is difficult to view that the role of Defendant 2 (Defendant 1): (a) was simply on the level of the office director or the administrative director in charge of the administration affairs of the hospital; (b) from August 2, 2011, immediately after the opening of the ○ Hospital, Defendant 2 (Defendant 1): (c) deposited a considerable amount of funds from the deposit account in the name of Nonindicted 6’s wife to the deposit account of the ○○ Hospital; and (d) used the funds for the hospital operation; (b) Defendant 2 (Defendant 1): (c) released cash from the physical card issued in the name of Nonindicted 3, the name of the establishment of the ○○ Hospital; (d) retired from the ○○ Hospital’s office to the ○○ Hospital’s general account; (e) retired from office to the ○○ Hospital’s general account; and (e) made Nonindicted 2 (Defendant 1: Defendant 7) and the head of the ○ Hospital’s office testimony to the Defendant 8’s general account.
The letter of hand-over, which appears to have been prepared to perform the duties of the staff in charge of the accounts at the ○○ Hospital’s hospital, states that “the director (the director (the defendant 2: hereinafter the same appears to be referred to as the defendant 1; hereinafter the same shall apply) must be opened by taking the fry, coffee, and paper cup,” as one of the daily business, states that “the details of the revenue of the fribs Center shall be separately prepared, and then the director shall be given approval after obtaining the approval of the fribsium,” and one of the monthly business affairs, states that “documents must be prepared to pay the fribs to the director on the pay day after obtaining the approval of the fribsing incentive,” and “the fribs that the fribs shall exceed the thickness of the director for the fri
We also participated in the claim suit against Non-Indicted 11 Co. 3 and Defendant 3 (Defendant 2). The ○ Hospital directly concluded a contract to purchase the diameter of KRW 25 million from Non-Indicted 12 Co. 12 Co., Ltd. and directly concluded the contract to purchase the diameter of KRW 13). On the other hand, Non-Indicted 13 (△△△) sent by Non-Indicted 13 to the ○○ Hospital in connection with ○○ Hospital’s website hosting and extension of the domain name, referring to the letter of facsimile stating “Defendant 2 (Defendant 1: the Chief Director of Defendant 14).”
㉳ 피고인 2(대판:피고인 1)는 ○○병원의 양수인으로 공소외 5를 물색하고, 공소외 5의 대리인 공소외 14와 양도양수계약을 직접 체결하는 등 ○○병원을 양도하는 업무도 주도적으로 처리하였다. 이와 관련하여 계약서상 양도인으로 되어 있는 공소외 3은 경찰에서 ‘양도에 관한 모든 권한을 피고인 2(대판:피고인 1)에게 위임하였고, 양도계약서도 피고인 2(대판:피고인 1)가 작성하였다’라고 주15) 진술하였고, 피고인 3(대판:피고인 2)은 경찰에서 ○○병원의 정확한 양도금액을 알지 못한다는 취지로 진술하기도 주16) 하였다.
㉴ 2013. 5. 30. ○○병원이 공소외 5에게 양도되고 2013. 6. 4. 대표자 변경신고까지 마쳐짐으로써 피고인 2(대판:피고인 1)가 더 이상 ○○병원에 근무하지 않게 된 뒤에도, 피고인 2(대판:피고인 1)는 2013. 6. 13. 공소외 15 등 근로자들이 임금체불로 고발한 것과 관련하여 중부지방고용노동청 인천북부지청에 피진정인 대리인으로 출석하여 조사를 주17) 받았고, 공소외 5에 대한 양수도대금지급청구 및 형사고소에 관한 소송위임계약을 공소외 3의 대리인 자격에서 주18) 체결하였다.
Comprehensively taking account of the above circumstances, the lower court’s conclusion that found Defendant 2 (Counter-board: Defendant 1) guilty of violating the Medical Service Act on Defendant 2 (Counter-board: Defendant 1) and Defendant 3 (Counter-board: Defendant 2) was not merely employed by Defendant 3 (Counter-board: Defendant 2) and did not serve as an employee of the ○○ Hospital, but at least can be evaluated as leading in the establishment and operation of the ○○ Hospital in the position of Defendant 3 (Counter-board: Defendant 2) and its partner. In light of the aforementioned legal principles, the lower court’s conclusion that found Defendant 2 (Counter-board: Defendant 1) guilty
(2) On the violation of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment, etc. of Specific Economic Crimes (Fraud)
(1) As long as the ○○ Hospital was established in violation of Article 33(2) of the Medical Service Act as seen above, Defendant 2 (Defendant 1), and Defendant 3 (Defendant 2) claiming expenses for benefits as if the ○ Hospital had been duly established in the course of operating the ○ Hospital, and received KRW 1,630,560,050 from the National Health Insurance Corporation as medical care institutions under the Medical Service Act, and KRW 206,30,302,320 from the National Health Insurance Corporation, by deceiving and receiving medical care expenses, constitutes fraud (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2016Do6910, Jul. 22, 2016). Under the premise that the ○○ Hospital was a medical institution lawfully established in the ○○ Hospital, the allegation in this part of the judgment of conviction by the lower court is without merit.
However, in the case of fraudulentation of medical benefits costs, the head of a local government having jurisdiction over the place of residence of a beneficiary (Article 5(1)), expenses for medical benefits shall be borne by the medical benefits fund established in a City/Do (Articles 10 and 25), and the head of a local government shall entrust the Health Insurance Evaluation Institute with the affairs of examining and coordinating the claim for expenses for benefits during the duties concerning medical benefits to the National Health Insurance Corporation (Article 33(2) and Article 20(1) and (2) of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act (Article 33(2) of the same Act and Article 20(1) and (2) of the same Enforcement Decree). In full, it is reasonable to deem that the subject to the rights and duties related to medical benefits costs is a competent local government. Therefore, even if the party to deception and the dispositive entity of property are the National Health Insurance Corporation, the occurrence of property damage through fraudulentation of medical benefits costs should be deemed to be each local government. The court below found guilty of the violation of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment, etc.
However, in case where it is proved that there is a difference between the victim in the facts charged and the victim in the indictment as stated in the indictment is different, the accused should be found guilty by disclosing the victim in the indictment and the actual victim other than the victim in the indictment ex officio without the amendment process, unless the identity of the accused is disturbed and substantial disadvantage is harmed by the defendant's exercise of his right to defense (see Supreme Court Decision 2001Do6878, Aug. 23, 2002). According to the legal evaluation on whom the victim can be viewed as the victim in this part of the indictment, even if the competent local government recognizes the victim as the victim in this part of the fraud crime, it cannot be said that there is any substantial disadvantage to the victim in the exercise of the right to defense of the victim in this part of the indictment. Thus, with respect to the crime of fraud of medical care costs, each non-indicted local government is
(3) As to the violation of the Act on Special Measures for the Control of Public Health Crimes (Unlawful Medical Service Providers)
Defendant 2 (In the first instance court: Defendant 1) and Defendant 3 (In the second instance court: Defendant 2) asserted the same as the grounds for appeal on this part; however, the lower court found Defendant 2 (in the first instance court’s judgment, Defendant 1) guilty of Defendant 2 (in the first instance court’s judgment, Defendant 2: Defendant 1)’s assertion that Nonindicted 16 had been aware of the fact that Nonindicted 16 had a separate operation of the part-time care center at the ○○ Hospital building of this case and that the intent was not performed at the above part-time care center; Defendant 16 had a consultation on the distribution of operating profits with Nonindicted 16; Defendant 3 (in the first instance court: Defendant 2) was also aware of the fact that Nonindicted 16 had operated the part-time care center separately; Defendant 2 (in the first instance court’s judgment: Defendant 1) and Defendant 16 (in the first instance court’s judgment, Defendant 2 (in the first instance court’s judgment and the second instance court’s judgment).
In addition to the above circumstances revealed by the lower court, i.e., the following circumstances revealed by the same evidence, i.e., the assistant nurse, i.e., Nonindicted 17, who worked with Nonindicted 16, worked as an assistant nurse at the ○○ Hospital Support Center without any separate interview with Nonindicted 16’s proposal, and Nonindicted 16 operated the medical equipment in person, and Nonindicted 16, who was in charge of the operation of Nonindicted 16, stated that the skin Support Center was not subject to any instruction or supervision from ○○ Hospital, and that there was no particular circumstance to suspect the credibility of the statement. 7) The lower court’s determination on the fact that Nonindicted 17, who was in charge of the head of the ○ Hospital from August 1, 2011 to April 30, 2012, was justifiable in that it did not err by misapprehending the legal principles as seen above, and that the Defendants did not jointly appear to have been distributed to Nonindicted 16, an employee at the ○○ Hospital’s bar.
B. Judgment on the prosecutor's misconception of facts or misapprehension of legal principles
Before the prosecutor's judgment on this part of the grounds for appeal, the part of the judgment of the court below that acquitted could no longer be maintained, since the prosecutor's allegation of mistake or misapprehension of legal principles is still meaningful in relation to the facts charged as above, the prosecutor applied for changes in the indictment to the effect that Defendant 1 was employed by Defendant 2 (Defendant 1) and Defendant 3 (Defendant 2) and Defendant 2 (Defendant 2). This court permitted this on the second trial date on June 27, 2016 and changed the subject of the judgment. Thus, the part of the judgment of the court below's judgment on the ground that the prosecutor's allegation of mistake or misapprehension of legal principles is still meaningful in relation to the changed facts charged. Thus, this decision shall be made within the scope related to the changed facts charged.
If a doctor acted in collusion with a non-medical person for the purpose of profit-making, the act constitutes Article 5 of the Act on Special Measures for the Control of Public Health Crimes. Furthermore, the purpose of profit-making under the above Article is to obtain wide economic benefits, and there is no need for a person who engages in non-licensed medical treatment to correspond with the person to whom such economic benefits accrue or the person who manages the non-licensed medical treatment (see Supreme Court Decision 2003Do2903, Sept. 5, 2003, etc.).
Based on the evidence duly adopted and examined by the court below and the trial court, the following circumstances are revealed: ① Defendant 2 (Defendant 1) was proposed to work directly at the skin room in order to promote the operation of the skin room which was left unattended after Nonindicted 16; and lastly, Defendant 1 was allowed to use the name of “○○ Hospital (Li, Non-Party 1),” and ② Defendant 1 was started to work in the skin room from June 2012 to November 7, 2012, Defendant 1 was reported to the specialized department of ○○ Hospital; ③ Defendant 1 was not permanently posted to the hospital of ○○; Defendant 2 did not have been posted to the hospital of ○○; Defendant 1 was also reported to the general account of Non-Party 1’s non-Party 1’s non-party 1’s non-party 1’s non-party 1’s non-party 1’s medical practice; and Defendant 2’s non-party 1’s non-party 1’s non-party 1’s non-party 2’s name and non-party 3’s non-party 1’s non-party 1’s medical practice.
3. Conclusion
Therefore, the judgment of the court below is reversed in its entirety pursuant to Article 364(2) and (6) of the Criminal Procedure Act without any judgment on the allegation of mistake or misapprehension of the legal principles as to the guilty portion of the judgment of the court below as to the violation of the Act on Special Measures for the Control of Public Health Crimes (unlawful Medical Business Operator) and the violation of the Medical Service Act. However, the part concerning the violation of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment, etc. of Specific Economic Crimes (Fraud) should be reversed. The part concerning the violation of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment, etc. of Specific Economic Crimes (including the part concerning acquittal in the reason) should be reversed, and the prosecutor's appeal is justified.

Defendant established and operated a medical institution even if it is not a medical personnel, led the criminal act of deceiving medical care benefit costs and medical care costs, and led non-medical personnel to repeat unlicensed medical practice for a long time for profit. Such criminal act is highly likely to cause harm to the national health, as well as to endanger the financial foundation of the national health insurance system, and is highly harmful to the overall order of medical order, and is not easy to commit a crime. There is no recovery of the Defendant’s property damage from the criminal act until the trial. Considering the circumstances unfavorable to the Defendant, the sentence of imprisonment with prison labor equivalent to the degree of responsibility is inevitable.
However, the punishment of imprisonment shall be set at the lower limit of the recommended range according to the sentencing guidelines of the Supreme Court in consideration of the circumstances favorable to the defendant, such as the fact that the ○○ Hospital performed medical acts by the actual doctor, there is no evidence to know that excessive claims for medical care benefit costs, etc. were made, the defendant's actual profits acquired compared to the amount recognized as legally acquired, and there is no record of punishment heavier than the fine.
