Abstract

Natural food ingredients are becoming increasingly popular as a treatment. According to studies and investigations, experts increasingly turn to natural remedies to treat disease, including date fruit extract (Phoenix dactylifera). This study tested the effectiveness of oral date palm fruit extract (Phoenix dactylifera) in reducing blood malondialdehyde levels in white rats (Rattus norvegicus) induced by excessive physical activity and increasing blood levels. Intense physical exercise increases white rat blood superoxide dismutase. This research is a laboratory experimental research or an actual experiment. The research design used a pre-test and post-test with a control group design to analyze the effectiveness of oral administration of date palm (Phoenix dactylifera) extract on the MDA and SOD levels of white rat (Rattus norvegicus) samples induced by excessive physical activity. The results of date fruit extract (Phoenix dactylifera) at 5 ml were more effective at reducing MDA and increasing SOD levels in white mice induced by excessive physical activity than at 3 and 4 ml. The experimental group treated with date fruit extract (Phoenix dactylifera) had lower MDA and higher SOD levels than the group given distilled water. Date fruit extract (Phoenix dactylifera) contains flavonoids and tannins. Some bioactive substances are antioxidants. Antioxidants can assist the body fight free radicals from excessive physical exertion.

Abstract

This study analyzes the implementation of the National Health Insurance (JKN) policy administered by the Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Sosial in enhancing service quality at Royal Prima Marelan General Hospital. The primary issues identified include insufficient dissemination of policy guidelines to medical personnel and patients, complex administrative procedures, and limited service facilities available to JKN participants. Using a descriptive-analytic approach, the research applies the SERVQUAL (Service Quality) model and the Expectancy–Disconfirmation Theory (EDT) to evaluate the gap between patient expectations and perceived service quality. Data were obtained through observations, interviews, and questionnaires involving medical staff, administrative officers, and JKN patient participants. The findings reveal that the Tangibles and Reliability dimensions are relatively satisfactory; however, Responsiveness and Empathy remain low due to limited human resources and heavy workloads. The implementation of JKN policies by the Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Sosial has not been fully optimized, primarily due to inadequate training, the absence of integrated digital information systems, and limited managerial support for systematic service quality monitoring and evaluation. Based on the EDT assessment, a notable mismatch exists between patient expectations and actual service experiences, resulting in dissatisfaction. Integrating the JKN policy framework with SERVQUAL and EDT highlights the need to strengthen policy dissemination, enhance human resource capacity, and reform management systems through digitalization and a human-centered approach to ensure equitable, efficient, and sustainable health services at Royal Prima Marelan General Hospital.
