Buleleng DPRD urges Jamkes bailout for the poor
The tug of war about the placement of bailout funds for the treatment of the poor in Buleleng Regency has resurfaced. The Buleleng DPRD urged the government to realize the budget in 2022.
The problem of bailout funds has been sticking out since 2020. The council urged the government to prepare the funds. The reason is that there are still people who do not receive adequate health services.
Previously, the council had urged that the bailout be installed this year. But it was not realized. Now the council is asking the government to realize the allocation of these funds by 2022. Commission IV member of the Buleleng DPRD, Ketut Ngurah Arya, gave several logical reasons why this bailout fund was very important. He said that the government had allocated funds for the Healthy Indonesia Card (KIS) in the APBD. The funds were allocated for the poor who had not yet had access to adequate health services.
Not all poor people can access these facilities. In addition, some poor people cannot use KIS. The reason is that the illness suffered by the community is not covered by BPJS health services.
“For example, people pick coconuts, fall, then break their bones. This cannot be financed through KIS. Likewise, if people are cutting grass, their hands or feet are torn off with sickles, they cannot be financed. While in fact, they are poor, unable to pay for treatment. We have to find a way out of this," said Ngurah Arya when contacted.
