Proper insurance system is the first target of millennium development. Indonesian Ministry of Health offers an insurance system for helping reduce infant and maternal mortality rates: The Jampersal. Reproductive health for women and children is the second targets of MDGs . It has been 1 year of Jampersal implementation, therefore it needs to evaluate the effectiveness, especially in a remote area like Ternate in Northern Maluku. The study was conducted by collecting secondary quantitative data and primary qualitative data from 7 Puskesmas in Ternate (out of 8) in August-November 2012. Data were collected from 15 nursery mothers who underwent Jampersal insurance, from 15 midwives, 8 medical doctors and 1 obsgyn specialist from all districts Puskesmas in Ternate. Quantitative data were analyzed by descriptive statistics and qualitative data were analyzed by content analysis. that Jampersal was significantly increased documentation of medical record on mother who delivers the baby in Puskesmas; who were also increased in number. Previously lots of mother delivers at home with traditional birth attendances without proper documentation on medical records. It means that indirectly, Jampersal should have been helping in controling problems on reproductive and child health. However, it is not yet clear that Jampersal actually helps to reduce infant and maternal mortality rate due to many obstacles following the Jampersal implementations.

Research on the impacts of the ‘requirement system’ on student learning is still rare, however the system is still widely applied by Dental Schools in many countries. The major consequent of this system is the unpreparedness of students’ learning prior to presenting patients with particular complaints. Objective: This study aimed to explore the effect of the ‘requirement system’ on students’ learning strategy in Dental Education University of Jenderal Soedirman, Purwokerto, Indonesia. Methods: This was a qualitative-phenomenography study. The collection of data was through observations and interviews. The number of subjects was 13 students of the same batch in a clinical education level, determined by purposive sampling. Observations by 2 clinical teachers were done in advance and lasted for six weeks, followed by in-depth interviews. The analysis followed the phenomenography method. Results: Interviews revealed that application of the ‘requirement system’ had prompted the students to get the patients and to learn or not learn correspondingly to the specified cases. Students will have adequate preparation to learn if they are motivated to discuss with the teachers, having previous experiences, and if the patient is perceived to be special. Inadequate preparation of learning occurred when students felt tired, insufficient time between patients’ arrival and presentation in front of clinical teachers, and repetition of the case. Observations revealed that preparation for learning did not consequently lead to students’ performance in doing clinical work. ‘Well-done’ up to ‘less than expected’ performances were found in both single-cases as well repetition-cases. Conclusion: ‘Requirement system’ driven students’ preparation for learning. However, number of cases did not. Modifying the ‘requirement system’ and improving the quality of clinical supervision are two important things suggested by this study

Top-quality maternal health care requires midwifery and medical students to work together in multidisciplinary interprofessional education (IPE). Achieving IPE learning competencies requires interprofessional assessment methods; one such is portfolio. Study on portfolio as interprofessional assessment is limited. To evaluate interprofessional core competencies illustrated by IPE portfolios. A qualitative design using content analysis to evaluate portfolios of midwifery and medical students attending three weeks’ interprofessional learning in an Indonesian university. Sixty portfolios were analyzed for four IPE core competencies. Fifteen open-ended questionnaires were collected to confirm the data and further explore issues. Four interprofessional core competencies were illustrated in portfolios. While only three portfolios contained objective evidence of learning, over two-thirds of students could plan appropriate, concrete work based on interprofessional learning. The results indicate that the portfolio assesses interprofessional learning with student reflections that illustrate the achievement of four IPE core competencies. The validity of this competency achievement is also supported and confirmed by the evidence of learning and subsequent learning plans. Furthermore, portfolios also can encourage the students to prepare a concrete and appropriate work plan or study plan for students’ interprofessional learning.

ABSTRACTBackground: Maternal deaths as a global public health problem and urgent to be addressed through the launch of the Safe Motherhood program. UN Resolution on universal health coverage (Universal Health Coverage) is an important resolution and urged all countries to develop a health system with equitable access and affordable cost. This is one of the programs to reduce MMR and IMR. Based on research in three countries, namely Burkina Faso, Ghana and Tanzania also had a strong effort to improve the quality of maternal and neonatal health (MNH) In addition, these three countries are also striving to improve the performance and motivation of the provider. In Indonesia, according to Ministry of Health Decree No. 59 Year 2014 About the standard of health care, require midwives in cooperation with BPJS through a network of family doctors who have been appointed to make the deal as one of the Government's aim to improve maternal and child health (MCH).Methods: This study is a qualitative research design of phenomenology. Data collection is carried out by the method of in depth review or directly using the guidelines of unstructured interviews, and open questions midwives practice independently as a unit of analysis. Samples or informants taken up to a certain saturation or have reached sufficient number until there is no more data that needs to be explored. Triangulation of data include interview with the chairman of the Indonesian Midwives Association (IBI). Midwife verifiers and family doctor.Results: The results showed that midwives have a bad perception of the delivery package BPJS today. The reason is partly that the mechanism of the claims made package, complicated claim procedures and disbursement process long and low birth rates. So the motivation BPM in cooperation with the current BPJS is relatively small. The phenomenon that researchers have found that there are several midwife, although still tied to cooperation with BPJS but not serving patients with BPJS. Other phenomena that is the BPM want to directly contracted by with BPJS without a network of family doctors. This is due to lack of socialization of BPJS for strengthening primary care program that is currently being initiated by the government.Conclusions: The perception of Independent Midwife Practice against BPJS delivery package is still bad. Although the objective of the government is quite good, but there is still need for evaluation and dissemination as an effort to strengthen the primary care for BPM in the sustainability of cooperation in networks of family doctors in the hope that the package delivery mechanism is not paid in package and increase of the delivery service tarif rates between 800 thousand to 1.5 million IDR. Keywords: Independent Midwife Practice, Delivery Package, BPJS ABSTRAKLatar Belakang: Kematian ibu sebagai masalah kesehatan masyarakat global dan mendesak untuk segera ditanggulangi melalui peluncuran program Safe Motherhood. Resolusi PBB pada cakupan kesehatan universal (Universal Health Coverage) pada bulan desember 2012, yang menggaris bawahi bahwa UHC merupakan resolusi yang penting dan mendesak pada semua negara untuk mengembangkan system kesehatan dengan akses yang adil dan biaya yang terjangkau. Hal ini merupakan salah satu program untuk menurunkan AKI dan AKB. Berdasarkan penelitian di tiga Negara yaitu Burkina Faso, Ghana dan Tanzania juga memiliki upaya yang kuat untuk meningkatkan kualitas kesehatan ibu dan bayi (MNH) Selain itu ketiga negara tersebut juga berjuang untuk meningkatkan kinerja dan motivasi para provider. Di Indonesia, berdasarkan Keputusan Menteri Kesehatan Nomor 59 Tahun 2014 Tentang standar pelayanan kesehatan, mewajibkan para bidan bekerjasama dengan BPJS melalui jejaring dokter keluarga yang telah ditunjuk untuk membuat kesepakatan sebagai salah satu tujuan pemerintah untuk meningkatkan pelayanan kesehatan ibu dan anak (KIA).Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif dengan rancangan fenomenologi,. Pengambilan data dilaksanakan dengan metode wawancara mendalam secara langsung menggunakan pedoman wawancara tidak terstruktur, dan pertanyaan terbuka kepada para bidan praktek mandiri sebagai unit analisis. Sampel atau informan di ambil sampai dengan saturasi tertentu atau telah mencapai kecukupan hingga tidak ada lagi data yang perlu digali. Sebagai triangulasi yang dipilih antara lain ketua IBI, Bidan Koordinator/verifikator dasar dan Dokter keluarga.Hasil: Dari hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa para bidan memiliki persepsi yang buruk terhadap paket persalinan BPJS saat ini. Meskipun jumlah paketnya lebih besar dari Jampersal, namun tidak semua paket bisa diklaimkan. Penyebabnya antara lain yaitu mekanisme klaim yang dibuat perpaket, prosedur klaimnya rumit dan proses pencairannya lama serta rendahnya tarif persalinan. Sehingga motivasi Bidan Praktek Mandiri (BPM) didalam kerjasama dengan BPJS saat ini relatif kurang. Fenomena yang peneliti temukan yaitu ada beberapa bidan yang meskipun masih terikat kerjasama dengan BPJS tetapi tidak melayani pasien persalinan dengan BPJS. Hal ini terkait dengan rumitnya prosedur paket persalinan BPJS sehingga bidan enggan untuk mengklaim ke BPJS. Fenomena lainnya yaitu para BPM ingin bisa langsung bekerjasama dengan BPJS tanpa melalui jejaring dokter keluarga. Hal ini akibat kurangnya sosialisasi dari BPJS untuk program penguatan layanan primer yang saat ini sedang dicanangkan oleh pemerintah.Kesimpulan: Persepsi Bidan Praktek Mandiri terhadap paket persalinan BPJS masih buruk. Untuk keberlanjutan menjadi provider di dalam jejaring dokter keluarga para BPM masih ingin tetap melanjutkan namun dengan harapan agar mekanisme paket persalinan tidak di buat perpaket dan ada peningkatan tarif persalinan antara 800 ribu sampai 1.5 juta rupiah.

Background: Elderly populations have increased in line with the increased life expectancy. Currently, the balance of disease burden on the elderly has shifted towards chronic disease. Cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cognitive impairment and depression are chronic diseases that cause suffering and death in elderly populations. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive and multidimensional health assessment as a preventive effort to reduce morbidity in the elderly.Objective: The general objective of this research was to obtain a description of elderly health status at the Posyandu for the elderly using a geriatric assessment called the ABCDE (Ability, Balance, Cognitive, Diseases, Emotion) method.Methods: This research used a cross-sectional design. The subjects were elderly persons ≥ 60 years old who participated in the Posyandu for the elderly and who had fulfilled inclusion and exclusion criteria. The estimated minimum sample size was 242 selected using stratified random sampling. The statistical analysis in this research employed univariate, and bivariate analysis using Chi square tests.Results: Elderly participants had light dependency (34.2%) with average activities of daily living (ADL) value of 19.39 ± 1.32, positive Romberg test 3.7%, and Sharpened Romberg Test 50%. The prevalence of cognitive impairment was 43.4%, while the average score of Mini Mental State Examination was 23.31 ± 6.08, hypertension prevalence 73.14%, hypercholesterolemia 13.22%, and diabetes mellitus 10.33%. Elderly who had depression and probable depression were 12.81%, consisting of mild depression 11.57% and moderate depression 1.24%. Balance disorders had a statistically significant correlation with ADL (p = 0.012; Ratio Prevalence (RP) = 1.422: 95% CI), cognitive impairment (p = 0.039; RP = 1.31: 95% CI), and depression (p = 0.034; RP = 1.63: 95% CI).Conclusion: The prevalences of hypertension, cognitive impairment, and balance disorder on sharpened Romberg test were high. There were statistically significant correlations between balance disorder and ADL, cognitive function, and depression. These findings support the application of geriatric assessment by using ABCDE which can be applied in primary care setting for elderly people.
