eradication of contagious diseases and the cure and rehabilitation of diseases. The main priority is given to eradication of contagious diseases and outbreaks which tend
to rise. Greater attention is given to efforts to realize higher working productivity, through
various occupational health service efforts including nutritional improvement and
work force’s physical fitness and other health efforts related to health of work environment and settlement areas, especially for people living in the slum areas.
Increase in health efforts is implemented through supporting private sector partnership
and society’s potentials. Improvement in health efforts of the governmental sector is prioritized on health services having broad impacts to public health. While individual
health services of curative and rehabilitative nature are mainly trusted to private. Basic health services that are implemented through puskesmas, helper puskesmas,
midwives at villages, and private health service efforts are improved in equality and quality. The same improvement is also applied on referral health services that are
implemented by hospitals owned by the government and the private. Improvement in quality is done through positioning midwives at villages,
development of existing puskesmas and construction of helper puskesmas equipped with facilities. Improvement in service quality is done through implementation of
quality assurance by puskesmas and hospitals.
5. Improvement of Health Resources
Improvement in health manpower should support all health development efforts and directed to create health manpower that is expert and skilled in line with the progress
in science and technology, devout and faithful to the Only God and holding tightly dedication to the nation and country as well as professional ethics. Up grading of
health manpower is aimed at improving empowerment or utilization of manpower and preparation of health manpower, either from the public or the government, that can
implement health development. JPKM is developed further to assure implementation of health maintenance that is
more equal and qualified with controllable price. JPKM is run as a joint effort between the society, private and government to fulfill the need for health service costs
which are rising continuously. Health service tariffs should be adjusted based on the
value of goods and service received by the society’s members getting the care. The less well to do people will be helped through the JPKM system subsidized by the
government. At the same time, health insurance is also developed as a complement companion to JPKM. The development of health insurance is under the cultivation of
the government and insurance association. Beside that gradually the state owned puskesmas and hospitals will be managed by self-financing system.
In the effort to increase health inventories, the purchase and production of medical raw materials which have economic yield will be stepped up. Supply, production and
distribution of finished drugs will be increased in efficiency and quality so that the society will be able to get qualified drugs with affordable prices. Rational use of
drugs, especially with generic drugs is encouraged through promotion and

that, cultivation and utilization in the society will be improved further through cultivation by the government or professional organizations.
