Abstract

Everyone has the right to live in bodily and spiritual prosperity, to have a good environment in which to live, and to receive health care, according to Article 28 H, paragraph 1, of the 1945 Constitution. The 1945 Constitution’s Article 28 H paragraph (3) states that everyone has the right to social security that enables their complete development as respectable human beings. The 1945 Constitution’s Article 34, paragraph 3 confirms that the State is in charge of providing suitable healthcare facilities and public service facilities. The government has responded to the mandate of the 1945 Constitution by enacting Law no. 36 of 2009 concerning Health and Law no. 40 of 2004 concerning the National Social Security System (SJSN), which includes health care insurance. In Law no. 36 of 2009, it is emphasized that everyone has the same rights in obtaining access to resources in the health sector and obtaining health services that are safe, quality, and affordable. By participating in cooperation, the community can get health services whenever they need them, without being constrained by costs. The services obtained will also not be limited to basic services. The community will get health services that are always increasing, along with the increase in the results of cooperation/financing contributions. The government’s policies on health insurance and the insurance agency for both national and local/regional schemes need to be known and understood by the whole community. Given the current problems, namely the lack of understanding of participants in following the National Health Insurance (JKN) procedure, it is hoped that a comprehensive understanding of the existing health insurance will be able to improve the quality of services for health insurance participants so that in the end it will have implications for increasing understanding the community’s rights and obligations and can take advantage of health insurance properly and correctly.
