Social Health Insurance In Indonesia
The health status of
people in Indonesia is improving slowly over the last two decades. Factors like
low education, low income, difficult geographical access, cultural problems and
health care financing are responsible for the low improvement of health status
in Indonesia. World Health Report 2000 has clearly suggested that health care
financing is the most important element in achieving health improvement. The
level of health care financing affects the availability of human resources,
medical supplies, distribution of healthcare facilities, quality of health
services, and other important processes. The main hypothesis of this study is
that health care financing is the key component to sustainable and significant
health improvement.
Government in its study has reported that
health care financing has progressed in Indonesia in the last two decades. The
study emphasized on following points:
(1)
To identify
health care financing from various sources in the last two decades;
(2)
To identify
gaps in health care financing in relation to health care needs;
(3)
To assess
philosophy and regulations that may affect health care financing, and
(4) To identify
various feasible options to improve equity in health care financing.
Data from Susenas 1992 to Susenas 2001 (ten
year annual survey) has revealed that access to hospital care is very poor for
the bottom 60% of the total population. On an average, each household must
spend more than 100% of the household income for one admission, regardless of
public or private hospitals.
Health care hospital data shows that the
proportion of poor and nearly- poor patients to the total patients served by
public and private hospitals was far below than the proportion of poor to the
population. In many public hospitals the proportions of the poor patients
admitted was less than 1% of the total patients. In contrast, the proportion of
the poor to the community is far above 20% of the total population. The gaps in
access to hospital services between the poor and the rich continue to be very
high.
The
social safety net programming funded by a loan from the Asian Development Bank,
has improved access to the poor.
