My final thesis about the Indonesian movement towards universal health coverage and its achievement in providing the right to health for Indonesian people.
This document summarizes the public health situation in Thailand. It discusses the distribution of health resources, prevalence of major diseases, health research projects, education efforts, and national health policies. Some key points are:
- Healthcare resources are unevenly distributed between urban and rural areas.
- Major diseases like cancer, heart disease, and diabetes place a large burden on the population and healthcare system.
- Thailand aims to promote health security, self-care, and equal access to quality healthcare for all citizens through research, education, and decentralized healthcare management.
- The universal health coverage scheme has increased access to care but also faces challenges in budget allocation and long-term sustainability.

The document outlines strategies to improve India's health sector. It discusses India's achievements in health care to date, current challenges, and actions being taken. Five strategies are proposed: 1) increasing medical tourism, 2) boosting investment, 3) improving infrastructure, 4) increasing organ donation, and 5) greater societal integration and responsibility for health issues. The strategies aim to address lack of resources, unequal access to care, and low societal contribution to health issues.
Healthcare system being a priority in the world.Also, healthcare systems in low middle income countries should draw attention especially with the world witnessing global pandemic, COVID-19.
The document provides information about social health insurance in Nepal. It discusses Nepal's National Health Insurance Policy passed in 2014 that aims for universal health coverage. The Social Health Security Program was implemented in 2016 to provide health insurance coverage and access to services. Currently the program operates in 44 districts and has enrolled over 1.1 million people, providing annual benefits of up to 100,000 NPR per household. The program aims to expand nationwide by 2076 to further improve healthcare access and financial protection for citizens.
Ayushman Bharat is India's largest government funded healthcare program. It has two major initiatives - Health and Wellness Centers that will bring healthcare closer to people, and the National Health Protection Scheme that will provide health insurance coverage of up to Rs. 500,000 per family per year for secondary and tertiary care to over 100 million poor and vulnerable families. The program aims to reduce out of pocket healthcare expenditures for citizens and improve access to quality healthcare services.
The Ayushman Bharat Yojana (National Health Protection Scheme) will provide health insurance coverage of 500,000 Indian rupees per family per year for secondary and tertiary medical care to over 100 million poor and vulnerable families. It aims to reduce out-of-pocket healthcare expenses that often lead to poverty. The scheme will be launched on September 25, 2018 across all states and union territories. Beneficiaries will receive Ayushman Bharat Family Health Cards and will be able to access cashless healthcare services at empaneled public and private hospitals.
Government Insurance Scheme/ Ayushman Bharat/ PMJAYNagamani T
Ayushman Bharat, also known as PMJAY, is India's national health protection scheme that was launched in 2018. It aims to provide health insurance coverage of Rs. 500,000 to over 50 crore poor and vulnerable individuals. The scheme covers both secondary and tertiary hospitalization expenses for 1,393 medical procedures. It is funded jointly by the central and state governments and offers cashless access to healthcare at empaneled public and private hospitals across India. The goal of PMJAY is to help India achieve universal healthcare coverage and reduce catastrophic out-of-pocket medical expenses.
The document discusses healthcare in India, including the current state and future outlook. It notes that healthcare spending is expected to grow significantly in the coming years, reaching 7-8% of GDP by 2012. Both public and private sectors are discussed, with most healthcare currently provided privately and out-of-pocket. Rural healthcare access significantly trails urban areas. The market is seen as highly promising but still very underdeveloped and unorganized compared to other countries.
Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY) is the flagship health insurance scheme launched by the Government of India in 2018 as part of the Ayushman Bharat program. It provides a cover of Rs. 5 lakhs per family per year for secondary and tertiary care hospitalization to over 10.74 crore poor and vulnerable families. PM-JAY aims to help mitigate catastrophic health expenditures that push many below the poverty line each year. It covers pre-existing conditions and provides cashless access to a wide range of medical treatments at both public and private empaneled hospitals across India.

Dr. Sudhakar Shinde, CEO, Mahatma Jyotiba Phule Jan Arogya Yojana (MPJAY)
The document provides an overview of Ayushman Bharat, the national health initiative launched by Prime Minister Modi. It has two major components: 1) establishing 150,000 Health and Wellness Centers across India to provide primary healthcare services, and 2) the Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY) which provides health insurance coverage of Rs. 500,000 per family per year for secondary and tertiary care hospitalization to over 100 million poor and vulnerable families. The initiative aims to achieve universal health coverage and reduce out-of-pocket healthcare expenditures for citizens.
The document discusses the Indian healthcare system and its key challenges. It notes that the system faces substantial challenges in providing quality healthcare due to factors such as a fast growing population, changing disease profiles, a multilayered healthcare landscape, lack of infrastructure, shortage of manpower, low public expenditure on health, and inaccessibility of services - especially in rural areas. It also examines the disease burden in India and initiatives by the government to improve the system. However, it concludes that India still lags in key healthcare indicators and there is need for improved healthcare planning, resources, and financing to address the country's growing healthcare challenges.
Management as a function of quality assurancesamehibrahim44
This document discusses health care delivery systems and primary health care. It defines primary health care as essential health care that is accessible to communities based on practical and scientifically sound methods. The key principles of primary health care are intersectoral collaboration, community participation, appropriate technology, equity, prevention and health promotion, and decentralization. The document also outlines the eight essential elements of primary health care: immunization, nutrition, water/sanitation, disease treatment, health education, maternal/child care including family planning, essential drugs, and additional elements like oral health and mental health. It defines key terms related to health care delivery systems.
Indonesia has a mixed health system with both public and private provision of care. Key achievements include increased life expectancy and reductions in communicable disease rates. However, challenges remain such as the dual burden of disease, natural disasters, weak health information systems, and high out-of-pocket expenditures. Future prospects include expanding the use of telemedicine, incentivizing an even workforce distribution, and passing more legislation to clarify the health system framework.
The document discusses mid-level health providers, their roles, and training. It begins by outlining the objectives of the seminar, which are to introduce mid-level providers, define them, explain their need, discuss their training, and describe their roles and responsibilities. It then provides details on mid-level providers, including their scope of practice and role in bridging gaps between communities and healthcare. The document also discusses India's Community Health Officer program and the services mid-level providers offer, such as maternal, child, and chronic disease care. It concludes by listing the roles and responsibilities of community health officers.
The document discusses primary health care (PHC) as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the 1978 Alma-Ata Declaration. It outlines the key principles of PHC including intersectoral collaboration, community participation, appropriate technology, equity, prevention focus, and decentralization. The goals of PHC are to provide essential health care that is universally accessible and affordable. Components of PHC include health education, essential drugs, immunization, maternal and child health/family planning, disease treatment, water and sanitation, and management of local endemic diseases.
The document discusses population health management and achieving healthy communities. It outlines major issues with the US healthcare system like uneven access to care. Real reform requires a focus on prevention, continuous care relationships, and evidence-based decisions. Population health management programs aim to maintain and improve people's health across different risk levels. Barriers to population health include fragmented care and misaligned incentives. Patient-centered medical homes and accountable care organizations show promise by emphasizing coordinated, team-based care. Automation and health information technology can help strengthen these models and drive effective population health management.
The Cambodia HiT reports that the national health sector reforms initiated two decades ago have had a positive impact on Cambodia’s health sector. The country’s health status has substantially improved since 1993 and is on track to achieve the Millennium Development Goal targets. Improving the quality of care is now the most pressing imperative in health-system strengthening.

Public health aims to promote physical and mental health in communities through organized efforts. It focuses on preventing disease, injury, and disability. Public health professionals come from diverse backgrounds including nursing, medicine, education, and social work. The core functions of public health are assessment, policy development, and assurance. Assessment involves monitoring community health status. Policy development means creating plans and policies to support community health. Assurance refers to enforcing laws and regulations to protect health as well as evaluating health services.
This document provides an overview of primary health care (PHC), including its definition, historical development, principles, strategies, and implementation in Ethiopia. The key points are:
- PHC aims to provide essential health care universally and affordably through community participation. It forms the first level of contact with the health system and emphasizes prevention.
- Approaches to PHC evolved from disease-focused vertical programs in the 1950s-70s to the comprehensive PHC model endorsed at Alma-Ata in 1978, focusing on health promotion, prevention and inter-sectoral collaboration.
- Ethiopia adopted PHC in the 1980s but faced challenges with implementation including lack of infrastructure, resources and inter-
The document discusses primary health care as defined at the 1978 Alma-Ata Conference. It was defined as essential health care that is universally accessible, socially appropriate, and affordable. The conference called for acceptance of the WHO goal of Health for All by 2000 and established primary health care as the means to achieve this. Key elements of primary health care include maternal and child health care, immunization, treatment of common diseases, and referral services.
A health system, also sometimes referred to as health care system, is the organization of people, institutions, and resources that deliver health care services to meet the health needs of target populations.
Health systems are responsible for delivering services that improve, maintain or restore the health of individuals and their communities.
Common elements in virtually all health systems are primary healthcare and public health measures.
The Thailand HiT reports that sustained political commitment to the health of the population since the 1970s has resulted in significant investment in health infrastructure, in particular primary health care, district and provincial referral hospitals, and strengthened the overall functioning of the Thai health system. After Thailand achieved universal health coverage in 2002, public expenditure on health significantly increased from 63% to 77% and out-of-pocket expense was reduced from 27.2% to 12.4% of the total health spending in 2011.

MALE CIRCUMCISION consists of the surgical act of removing the foreskin (skin that covers the glans of the penis), leaving the glans more prominent and better cleanable.
MALE CIRCUMCISION itself has medical as well as sociocultural implications, as it has been proven to be an act that can minimize SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS (STIs), especially HIV, but it also represents the SOCIOCULTURAL IDENTITY of some people, respectively.
Now, in a SERO-EPIDEMIOLOGICAL PROFILE like that of Mozambique where the prevalence of HIV is around 12.5% which corresponds to approximately 2 million people living with HIV, where the province of GAZA is the most seroprevalent with a positivity rate of 21% (INSIDA, 2021), it is extremely necessary to THOROUGHLY scrutinize all possibilities for preventing or minimizing the spread of HIV and other STIs.

General Endocrinology and mechanism of action of hormonesMedicoseAcademics
This presentation, given by Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology, delves into the foundational concepts of general endocrinology. It covers the various types of chemical messengers in the body, including neuroendocrine hormones, neurotransmitters, cytokines, and traditional hormones. Dr. Faiza explains how these messengers are secreted and their modes of action, distinguishing between autocrine, paracrine, and endocrine effects.
The presentation provides detailed examples of glands and specialized cells involved in hormone secretion, such as the pituitary gland, pancreas, parathyroid gland, adrenal medulla, thyroid gland, adrenal cortex, ovaries, and testis. It outlines the special features of hormones, differentiating between peptides and proteins based on their amino acid composition.
Key principles of endocrinology are discussed, including hormone secretion in response to stimuli, the duration of hormone action, hormone concentrations in the blood, and secretion rates. Dr. Faiza highlights the importance of feedback control in hormone secretion, the occurrence of hormonal surges due to positive feedback, and the role of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus as the master clock regulating rhythmic patterns in biological clocks of neuroendocrine cells and endocrine glands.
The presentation also addresses the metabolic clearance of hormones from the blood, explaining the mechanisms involved, such as metabolic destruction by tissues, binding with tissues, and excretion by the liver and kidneys. The differences in half-life between hydrophilic and hydrophobic hormones are explored.
The mechanism of hormone action is thoroughly covered, detailing hormone receptors located on the cell membrane, in the cell cytoplasm, and in the cell nucleus. The processes of upregulation and downregulation of receptors are explained, along with various types of hormone receptors, including ligand-gated ion channels, G protein–linked hormone receptors, and enzyme-linked hormone receptors. The presentation elaborates on second messenger systems such as adenylyl cyclase, cell membrane phospholipid systems, and calcium-calmodulin linked systems.
Finally, the methods for measuring hormone concentrations in the blood, such as radioimmunoassay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), are discussed, providing a comprehensive understanding of the tools used in endocrinology research and clinical practice.

The presentation would discuss diagnostic techniques, such as clinical evaluation, laboratory tests, and imaging studies, alongside treatment strategies that include antibiotic therapy, surgical intervention, and supportive care. Additionally, it would emphasize preventive measures, such as stringent aseptic techniques, preoperative skin antisepsis, and postoperative care protocols, to mitigate the incidence of these infections.
Principles of Cleaning
Nonsurgical root canal treatment is a predictable method of retaining a tooth that otherwise would require extraction. Success of root canal treatment in a tooth with a vital pulp is higher than that of a tooth that is necrotic with periradicular pathosis. The difference is the persistent irritation of necrotic tissue remnants, and the inability to remove the microorganisms and their by-products. The most significant factors affecting this process are tooth anatomy and morphology, and the instruments and irrigants available for treatment. Instruments must contact and plane the canal walls to debride the canal.
Morphologic factors such as lateral and accessory canals, canal curvatures, canal wall irregularities, fins, cul-de-sacs, and isthmuses make total debridement virtually impossible. Therefore the goal of cleaning not total elimination of the irritants but it is to reduce the irritants.
Currently there are no reliable methods to assess cleaning. The presence of clean dentinal shavings, the color of the irrigant, and canal enlargement three file sizes beyond the first instrument to bind have been used to assess the adequacy; however, these do not correlate well with debridement. Obtaining glassy smooth walls is a preferred indicator. The properly prepared canals should feel smooth in all dimensions when the tip of a small file is pushed against the canal walls. This indicates that files have had contact and planed all accessible canal walls thereby maximizing debridement (recognizing that total debridement usually does not occur).
Principles of Shaping
The purpose of shaping is to
1) facilitate cleaning and
2) provide space for placing the obturating materials.
The main objective of shaping is to maintain or develop a continuously tapering funnel from the canal orifice to the apex. This decreases procedural errors when cleaning and enlarging apically. The degree of enlargement is often dictated by the method of obturation. For lateral compaction of gutta percha the canal should be enlarged sufficiently to permit placement of the spreader to within 1-2 millimeters of the corrected working length. There is a correlation between the depth of spreader penetration and the apical seal.5 For warm vertical compaction techniques the coronal enlargement must permit the placement of the pluggers to within 3 to 5 mm of the corrected working length.6
As dentin is removed from the canal walls the root is weakened.7 The degree of shaping is determined by the preoperative root dimension, the obturation technique, and the restorative treatment plan. Narrow thin roots such as the mandibular incisors cannot be enlarged to the same degree as more bulky roots such as the maxillary central incisors. Post placement is also a determining factor in the amount of coronal dentin removal.

Moving toward universal health coverage of Indonesia: where is the position?
1. Thesis
Moving toward universal
health coverage of Indonesia:
where is the position?
Ahmad Fuady
Health Economics, Policy and Law
Erasmus University Rotterdam
The Netherlands
2013
2. Introduction
• The WHO Director General, Margaret Chan: universal health
coverage is “the single most powerful concept that public health
has to offer”.
• The rights to health. The State must secure citizen’s rights to
access health care services and any underlying determinants of
health. Universal health coverage is one of attempts.
• Indonesia, accelerated health care reform since 1998.
• Does the health care reform comply with the rationale of providing
the right to the highest attainable standard of health?
• Has the health care reform toward universal health coverage in
Indonesia improved the fulfillment of the right to the highest
attainable standard of health?
3. Theoretical framework
• Health is a fundamental human right.
• Article 12.1 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social
and Cultural Rights: the rights to the enjoyment of the highest
attainable standard of health.
• International and local legal instruments.
Four interrelated and essential
elements:
1.Availability
2.Accessibility
a. Non discrimination
b. Physical accessibility
c. Economic accessibility
d. Information accessibility
3.Acceptability
4.Quality
from economic and policy perspectives
4. The role of policy actors
in fulfilling the right to health
• The national and international policy makers, together with courts,
non-governmental organisations, and other stakeholders :
adopting and applying features of the right into policy actions.
• Legal recognition, followed by policy actions.
• The interaction among actors : favorable or unfavorable factor?
• Different patterns of interaction:
– Thailand, health system reform was part of large design to
restructure the relationship between the State and civil society
and democratization process.
– Philippines, health system reform was considered as businessas-usual and was not a monumental process.
– Indonesia?
5. Method
• Literature review of studies with time framework of 1998 to 2013.
• Sources :
– Indonesian databases.
– Scientific databases (Google Scholar, PubMed, and
WebScience).
– International databases WHO, World Bank and the Joint
Learning Network (JLN) for Universal Health Coverage.
– local and/or international case law.
• Comparing to neighboring countries: Thailand and Philippines.
• Analysis using guideline assessment of four important elements,
adapted from Hunt (2006).
6. Indonesian health care reform:
a brief history
Indonesian health care system
• A mixed public-private health care provision
– Public providers, dominate the services in rural area and
primary to secondary-level health care services.
• Primary health centers (Puskesmas), operate in sub-district
and village level.
• Supported Puskesmas (Pustu) for remote area.
• Public district-level hospitals.
– Private providers, concentrated in the urban area and are
mostly for secondary and tertiary-level health care services.
• Poor referral system, in the implementation.
8. Indonesian health care reform:
a brief history
The policy actors and developed legal and policy instruments
• Central government, hierarchical control and authority to develop
regulation
• Pressure and cause groups
9. Decentralization:
a confounding issue
• Decentralization Act (2001): larger authority of local governments
to manage and regulate their health and financial system.
• Much depends on temporary local elite interests rather than
establishing sustainable system. For instance, case of Jembrana
and Tabanan.
• The change of the governor and regent/mayor elections mode
health insurance becomes one of the most popular issues.
• Some manage their local resources effectively while others do not
(‘chaos’). The most recent case: ‘Jakarta Health Card’, promoted
in 2012.
• Some problems in availability and quality of health care
professionals and facilities.
10. WHERE IS THE POSITION?
Impacts of health care reform on right to the highest
attainable standard of health
11. Three dimensions of coverage
No cost sharing
(Jamkesmas)
Increasing coverage of
41.7% (2005) to 63.2% (2012)
Comprehensive
benefit package
(2012)
12. Three dimensions of coverage
• Less coverage, compared to neighboring countries
• A low coverage to formal workers group
3%
13. Availability
Availability of (functioning) health care facilities.
• Increasing number of facilities, but remains insufficient.
• Puskesmas with inpatient service has grown mainly in the urban
area while the remainings have shown a significant growth in the
rural area. Puskesmas ‘without doctors’.
Pustu poor
quality of care, do
not operate
regularly, and lack
of drugs and
diagnostic kits.
14. Availability
Availability of trained health care professionals and their salaries.
• Problem of data validity and reliability
• Lack of health care professionals
• Problem of deployment policy and unclear decentralization policy
• Without domestically competitive salary
15. Availability
Improving drugs availability in public health facilities
• 2010, essential medicine in the majority of public health services
was below 80% while only 15% of health facilities had 80% of
essential medicines.
• 2011, about 90.4% essential medicine has already been available
more than 80% from required medicines throughout the public
health facilities.
• Classical problem: discrepancy between urban and rural area.
16. Accessibility
• Physical constraints along with financial constraints because of
transportation cost poor utilization of those existing public
health facilities despite the free access.
• Access gap between rich and poor has remained high.
• Problems:
– Subsidy distribution is more pro-rich rather than pro-poor
– Leakage
– Considerable illegal fees, buying the card
– Illegal up-front payments
17. Acceptability
• …have to be respectful of medical ethics including the
requirement of informed consent and confidentiality of personal
health information, as well as culturally appropriate.
• Ethical violation increases. From 182 reported cases, MKDKI has
decided that 29 (15.9%) doctors have been proven guilty, and
their licenses have been revoked.
• Legal case of Mrs Darmoko vs Pondok Indah hospital unclear
informed consent and incomplete information.
• Poor confidentiality in HIV/AIDS counseling work in Papua and
ignorance of the local culture in training modules development.
18. Quality
• Health providers in outer Java-Bali have worse quality than those
practicing in Java-Bali because of limited facilities.
• Private-solo practices worsen the quality of public health care
service in a rural area.
The quality in terms
of structural
indicators
has improved.
19. Conclusion

• The position:
20. Recommendation
General recommendation
• Examining local experiences and identifying lesson learned to
improve the national program.
• Identifying local governments with good, moderate, and poor
capacities. Those local governments with moderate and poor
capacities should be supervised to manage their resources
appropriately.
• Setting national target for local government.
21. Recommendation
Improving coverage
• No significant problem in the benefit package and proportion of
cost sharing.
• Attracting employer and informal sectors to involve in national
health insurance, particularly Jamsostek scheme. The low
monthly premium of Rp 40,000-50,000 (USD 4.3-5.4) may be
attractive
• Improving promotion and persuasion by both of the government
and PT Askes. Ensuring that all eligible people enroll to the
program.
22. Recommendation
Increasing availability
• Improving health care professional database. The MoH, KKI, and
IMA have to develop a better method in registering and reviewing
the health care professional.
• Mandatory placement for fresh graduated doctors in rural and
remote area. Incentives?
– Sending health care professionals in teams.

central and local government to build health care facilities.
• Advocating central government and the House of Representative
to increase the proportion of the health budget .
23. Recommendation
Widening accessibility
• Preventing the leakages through active validation. Resource
transfer from central to local government should be based on
verified enrolment.
• Eliminating illegal upfront payment and rejection.
– The MoH, PHO and DHO : developing a mechanism of
complaints, signing MoU with hospitals, and constructing
adequate penalties for hospitals violating the memorandum.
– Hospital association: maintaining hospital performance and
conducting equal supervision.
– Community: encouraging the well-implemented program and
monitoring any potential violation in the grounds.
24. Recommendation
Making it more acceptable
• Introducing specific disease, such as HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis,
into whole health program to reduce discrimination.
• Regarding to respect of medical ethics, the MKDKI and the IMA
should develop preventive measures instead of merely
accommodate people’s complaints of medical services. It would
be overlapping with concerns to improve the quality of services
explained further.

midwifes.

to those who have been certified and reviewed periodically.
• Moratorium of new development of health and medical schools
– The DGHE: accrediting all health and medical schools and
strengthen the regulation, such as limiting enrolment for those
poor-accredited schools or programs.
– The KKI, the IBI, and the PPNI: establishing competency and
education standards.
