Abstract

Patient safety is a core element of the healthcare system, aimed at preventing adverse events and improving service quality. In Indonesia, it is governed by Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health and Minister of Health Regulation Number 11 of 2017 on Patient Safety, yet implementation remains uneven. Many hospitals show low compliance, government monitoring is limited, and significant gaps persist between urban and rural facilities. This study examines the legal framework and effectiveness of patient safety policies using a normative juridical method with statutory and conceptual approaches. Primary legal sources, including laws and regulations, along with secondary academic references, were analyzed qualitatively through a deductive process. The results indicate that although the regulatory framework provides comprehensive guidance, its execution in practice is still inadequate. Persistent obstacles include insufficient transparency in incident reporting, weak legal oversight, limited training for healthcare workers, and restricted access for patients to essential medical information. The study concludes that improving patient safety requires stronger hospital accountability, more transparent reporting mechanisms, and enhanced protection of patient rights within the legal system. Strengthening these aspects is expected to support safer and higher-quality healthcare services while providing greater legal certainty for patients in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of Law Number 13 of 1998 on the Welfare of the Elderly in fulfilling elderly health rights in Indonesia. Based on the Preamble to the 1945 Constitution and Article 28C, the state is obligated to improve the welfare of all citizens, including the growing elderly population that is projected to make Indonesia an aging society. This research employs a normative qualitative method with conceptual, comparative, and literature review approaches, examining legal regulations, scholarly works, and international instruments such as CEDAW and CRPD. The findings show that the law regulates elderly rights to comprehensive healthcare, government and community roles, priority for vulnerable groups, funding mechanisms, and social protection through BPJS Kesehatan. However, implementation challenges remain, including disparities in healthcare access, limited funding, and low awareness. The discussion highlights derivative programs such as Elderly Posyandu, geriatric services, and medical rehabilitation, though their reach is uneven. The study concludes that while the legal framework is adequate, stronger policies, better budgeting, and improved public education are needed. Recommendations include expanding community-based health programs, enhancing geriatric training, and strengthening multi-stakeholder collaboration to support active aging.
