The
Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is an
international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development with worldwide
operations. Its corporate objective is to improve people’s living conditions on
a sustainable basis. GIZ has been working in Indonesia since 1975 on behalf of
the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).
In
the context of the bilateral cooperation between the Government of Germany and
the Government of Indonesia, the Social Protection Programme (SPP) assists the
Government of Indonesia in the development of long-term strategies for a comprehensive
system of Social Protection. The National Development Planning Agency
(BAPPENAS) is its main partner. The collaboration has been reinforced and
strengthened during the German-Indonesian Government Negotiations in 2015. SPP has entered a new phase in July 2016 and is part
of the priority area “Inclusive Growth”.
SPP
aims at improving the framework conditions for the implementation of an
integrated social protection system, contributing to the efforts of the Indonesian Government
for a sustainable and
inclusive economic growth. The programme works in the following intervention
areas: (1) Social Assistance: capacity building for the Ministry of
Social Affairs (MoSA) / Unit Pengelolaan Program Keluarga Harapan (UPPKH) to
establish adequate managerial structures and improve the extension of the
Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT) programme; (2) Social Health Protection:
capacity building and technical support for Dewan Jaminan Sosial Nasional
(DJSN) to strengthen its role in the implementation of the National Health
Insurance in accordance to National Roadmap on Health and the establishment of
the new social security carrier Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Sosial I (BPJS I,
Health); (3) Inclusion
of Persons with Disabilities: support
to BAPPENAS, MoSA and
other stakeholders on the inclusion of persons with disabilities into social
protection, vocational training systems and the labor market; (4) Financial
Inclusion: advisory
services and technical support to BAPPENAS and other stakeholders on the
establishment of Postal Savings and electronic payment systems.
Indonesia
introduced a national health insurance programme (known as JKN) in 2014, based
on the National Social Security (SJSN) Law No. 40 which was passed in 2004.
This law laid out the legal basis for the establishment of a nationwide health
insurance as part of the National Social Security System in the country.
Following the SJSN Law, the GOI subsequently enacted the so-called BPJS Law No.
24 in 2011. This required the integration of the various public health
insurance schemes existing at that time into a single insurance system. The
BPJS law also stipulated that a single health insurance carrier, namely BPJS
Kesehatan, should be established to operate the JKN scheme from 2014 onwards.
The
enactment of the BPJS Law has advanced significantly the role and function of
the National Social Security Council (DJSN) as one of main stakeholders of the
ongoing Social Security and Health reform. The Social Security Council (DJSN)
has been took on the task of reform implementation, containing the three
components of a) formulating of policy recommendations (e.g. drafting of
presidential decrees), b) cross-sectoral coordination of stakeholders (e.g.
ministries) involved in the reforms and c) monitoring and evaluation of the
reform implementation.
Hence,
the reform process is laid out in the Road Map for the Implementation of
Universal Coverage to Health in 2019 which was approved by the National
Government and official acknowledgment as the ‘National Strategic Document’
through the Presidential Decree 74/2014. The Roadmap has been used by the GoI
as the key instrument for realizing the JKN and steering the overall reform.
Social
Protection Programme (SPP) implemented by GIZ has been at first supporting the
design and is currently continuing the support for the implementation stage of
JKN on various levels. SPP has been actively involved and facilitating the
elaboration of the Roadmap and strengthening the key stakeholders in performing
of activity to ensure the sustainability of the reform since 2010. The
continuation of support for monitoring and evaluation of its implementation is
in-line with the mandate of SPP in Indonesia.
In
order to sustain, foster and enhance the present achievements of the Indonesian
government in future, the stakeholders have voiced the demand for a continuous
support of SPP in facilitating the process of implementation which focus to
monitoring and evaluation of its National Health Insurance programme.
