Lecture Description
Indonesians are still relying heavily on out of pocket
spending on health care.
It means people have to pay directly to the health
providers when they got sick.
In the near future, Indonesias health financing system will
be changed to insurance based.
Therefore, instead of the patients, there will be other
parties (insurance agency or government) who will pay the
doctors.
These agencies will implement several payment
mechanisms for physician.

The Dilemma
Retrospective payment
system is more
favorable to doctors

government orinsurances choice
because it provides
better efficiency and
quality.
