Study on Implementation of JKN Programs in the Fisherman of Caddi Barrang Islands Communities in Supporting the Achievement of UHC+ Perspective Dimensions of Health Services

Abstract

The National Health Insurance (JKN) program is a health protection guarantee program so that the community can obtain maintenance and protection benefits in meeting basic health needs in order to achieve universal health coverage (UHC) indicators. Makassar City as a world city still has a group of islands that do not yet have health service facilities. The purpose of this research is to explore and study the implementation of the JKN program in the fishing communities of the Barrang Caddi Islands in supporting the achievement of UHC + from the perspective of the health service dimension. This research uses qualitative research. There were 22 informants in this study consisting of 4 key informants using in-depth interviews and 18 FGD participants. The results showed that the nearest health care facility for the fishing community on Lanjukang Island was the pustu (Supporting Community Health Center) (Supporting Community Health Center) on Langkai Island. Remote health facilities and limited access make it difficult for fishing communities in emergencies to access health services. The availability of medicines and health workers is sufficient but the performance of health workers is still complained by the community. Facilities provided by the government in the form of sea ambulances and home care services have never been felt by the community on Lanjukang Island. Health facilities should be provided on Lanjukang Island, available resources are maximally empowered and provide transportation that can be used to facilitate access to health services during emergencies.
