UNIVERSAL HEALTH COVERAGE POLICY IN INDONESIA

In the era of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), universal health coverage (UHC) has become a pressing priority amongst the global community. In response to the global call by the United Nations (UN), Indonesia in early 2014,
launched its universal healthcare program, the Jaminan Kesehatan Nasional (JKN).

The JKN program is one of the largest single payer social health insurance (SHI) schemes in the world and is operated by the Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Sosial (BPJS) Kesehatan. The coverage is planned to expand progressively and the government aspires to achieve universal coverage by 2019; as per the World Bank, by the end of 2016, nearly 172 million individuals or more than 60 per cent of the population were covered.
