Hikmah Ramadan: Puasa Ramadan, Barokah dan Kesehatan

TRIBUNJATIM.COM, SURABAYA-Umat muslim di seluruh dunia baru saja memasuki bulan suci Ramadan dengan rasya bersyukur. Meskipun status pandemi Covid-19 belum resmi dicabut, tetapi situasinya sudah semakin membaik. Kali ini kita sudah boleh melakukan salat tarawih berjamaah, tadarus dan iktikaf di masjid, bahkan sudah tidak wajib lagi mengenakan masker. Sampai hari ini, cakupan vaksinasi booster pertama sudah mencapai angka sekitar 75 persen, booster kedua sekitar 68 persen , bahkan booster ketiga sudah menjangkau sekitar tiga juta orang sehingga sudah jauh lebih aman karena sudah tercapai kekebalan kelompok atau herd immunity. Tentu ini karunia Allah yang wajib kita syukuri.

Joint Healthcare Provision to Patch Up BPJS Shortfall

The government must rearrange its regulations properly with an aim of preventing the tendency of insurance companies to implement adverse selection. Some time ago, Health Minister Budi Gunadi Sadikin raised the idea of a special health insurance package for the wealthy provided by the Healthcare and Social Security Agency (BPJS Kesehatan). The idea duly drew pros and cons. The suggested special BPJS health insurance for the wealthy is a package that, as expected, involves private insurers providing joint medical coverage. Kompas has published at least four opinion articles responding to the Health Minister's idea, which he put forward during a work meeting with the House of Representatives (DPR) at the end of 2022.

Asuransi Gabungan untuk Menambal Bolong BPJS

Rencana menggabungkan manfaat BPJS dan asuransi swasta sebenarnya bukan barang baru. Pemerintah perlu menata regulasi dan mengatur koridor risiko, kriteria pungutan dan pembayaran, sumber dana, dan durasi program CoB. Beberapa waktu lalu, Menteri Kesehatan Budi Gunadi Sadikin melontarkan ide perlunya BPJS khusus untuk orang kaya, dan langsung disambar dengan pro-kontra. BPJS untuk orang kaya dimaksud adalah asuransi swasta tambahan untuk menutupi kebutuhan pembiayaan pengobatan bagi orang kaya. Kompas setidaknya memuat empat artikel opini yang menanggapi lontaran Menkes yang disampaikan pada rapat kerja dengan DPR di pengujung 2022 itu.

Promoting Precision Medicine

Precision medicine will enable each patient to receive more sensitive screening, more precise diagnoses, and more effective medical treatment. Not long ago, Deputy Health Minister Dante Saksono Harbuwono said precision medicine was a necessity for future health services. Precision medicine will enable each patient to receive more sensitive screening, more precise diagnoses, and more effective medical treatment. This was conveyed by Dante in his inaugural speech as Professor of Internal Medicine at the School of Medicine, University of Indonesia (Kompas, 23/8/2022).

A Hybrid University-Hospital Based Medical Education to Overcome Scarcity of Specialists

Budi Gunawan Sadikin, Minister of Health, made a startling statement at the end of 2022: we are experiencing a shortage of specialist doctors. The number of specialist doctors available is insufficient to meet national demands. Furthermore, the distribution of specialist doctors is uneven, with the majority concentrated in major cities. We require the deployment of thousands of specialist doctors to small towns, areas outside of Java, as well as remote and underdeveloped areas. According to the Minister, one regional public hospital requires at least seven specialist doctors. According to WHO eligibility standards, Indonesia requires at least one doctor for every 1,000 people, or 1 : 1,000. Indonesia, with a population of approximately 275 million people, requires approximately 275,000 doctors.
