Abstract

Malnutrition problems that mostly occur in NTT are particularly caused by low protein intake. Therefore, this study was designed to intervene in feeding energy and protein dense snack to improve the nutritional status of children under five. This research was conducted in Tanah Putih Village, Kupang Tengah Sub-district, Kupang District. The research was an experimental method with a completely randomized design. Three types of intervention were given, namely: p1 = cassava + skipjack fish; p2 = cassava + rice beans; and p3 = cassava + skipjack fish + rice beans. Each sample consumed energy and protein dense snacks (according to treatment) for 30 days of trial. The results showed that the majority of children had a higher acceptance level for the intervention (88,9%). The results also showed that the provision of energy-dense food and protein significantly (p <0.05) improved the nutritional status of children under five, with weight for height indicator. However, the intervention had no significant effect (p> 0.05) with the indicator of height for age. The results of the analysis of variance showed a significant nutritional status improvement for the composition of cassava and fish (P1) (p <0.05) using the indicators wight for height and weight for age. Yet, it had not significantly contributed to improving the nutritional status of children under five using the height for age indicator.Advanced analysis using the Duncan test showed that the intervention treatment with the composition of cassava and rice beans had the strongest effect on improving the nutritional status of children under five.

Abstract

Problems commonly found in submitting insurance claims are incomplete documents, follow-up claims, the mismatch of the rates submitted by the hospital with the INA-CBGs rates or those paid by BPJS Kesehatan, irregularities in the coding of disease diagnoses, and the delay in claiming payments by BPJS Kesehatan. Based on the preliminary study at Soe Public Hospital in October 2019, there were still several administrative problems in submitting claims for JKN program. It was proven by the fact that there were still patients with JKN who did not bring a copy of their BPJS Kesehatan cards and the referral letter determined by BPJS Kesehatan when registering for a treatment. The aim of this study is to determine the factors causing the delay in submitting claims for inpatients with BPJS at Soe Public Hospital in 2020.This was a qualitative descriptive study. The population in this study was staff who are directly involved in the insurance claiming process. The sample was selected using purposive sampling technique that consisted of one assembling staff, one coding staff, two internal verifiers and one BPJS Kesehatan verifier. The results of the study indicated that the process of submitting claims for patients with BPJS Kesehatan by Soe Public Hospital did not carry out in a comprehensive and integrated manner because of incomplete medical record status, lack of coordination and teamwork between staff who record medical status that involves assembling staff, coding staff, and hospital verifier. This made a delay in submitting claims for inpatients with BPJS Kesehatan. There were also other obstacles found in the process of submitting claims for inpatients with BPJS Kesehatan at Soe Public Hospital. It is suggested that hospital managers need to evaluate staff who are responsible for submitting claims for inpatients with BPJS Kesehatan regularly and to assess the strengths and weaknesses of each staff.

Abstract

Meat floss production requires time as it involves a heavy workload. In addition, poor posture and work environment may cause fatigue and workplace accidents for the workers. There are two causes of fatigue, physical fatigue which is due to work-related environment factors and non-physical fatigue which is due to individual factors. Fatigue can affect health and work performance leading to productivity loss and accidents. This research aims to determine factors associated with work fatigue of workers at the Vivi Meat Floss Factory in Kefamenanu. This research was analytic with a cross-sectional design. The population in this study consisted of all workers (32 women) at the factory. A total sampling technique was applied to select the sample. The data were analyzed using logistic regression. The results showed that the factors related to work fatigue were job tenure period (p-value of 0.001 < 0.05), age (p-value of 0.002 < 0.05), work posture (p-value of 0.002 < 0.05), duration (p-value of 0.006 < 0.05), and temperature (p-value of 0.002 < 0.05).
