Is Indonesia’s National Health Insurance Associated with Greater Hospital Efficiency? Evidence from a Survey of Private Hospitals
Launched in 2014, the government of Indonesia’s national health insurance scheme, Jaminan Kesehatan Nasional, or JKN,
aims to ensure access to healthcare, especially for the poor and the near-poor (defined as the bottom 40%). The growing
private healthcare sector in Indonesia is well-positioned to respond to the increased demand that will ensue from the
government’s ambitious plans to achieve universal coverage by 2019. The private hospital industry has grown significantly
over the last seven years, increasing from 52 to 63 percent as a proportion of total hospitals in Indonesia (MOH, 2017).
