Reorientation of Health Service Governance Toward the Fulfillment of Social Justice

ABSTRACT: Health insurance is a human right. At the practical level, this health insurance program in Indonesia is organized by BPJS Kesehatan (Social Security Administering Body for Health). The implementation of BPJS Kesehatan is still not optimal and effective. Three problems are discussed in this writing: the dynamics of health insurance governance in Indonesia, the implementation of the fulfillment of the right to health by BPJS Kesehatan, and the reorientation of BPJS Kesehatan services toward social justice. These problems are then answered by scientific research methods using a sociological juridical approach. Complaintsoften occur regarding the regulations, the services provided by the health facility providers, and the distance between the community and the health facilities. Such complaints affect the public interest in becoming BPJS Kesehatan participants. The aforementioned conditions must be considered and evaluated for the government’s success in the aspired national health insurance plan.
