Suara.com – The Ministry of Health (Kemenkes) confirmed that if CareProtect will become an integrated Indonesian health system, including checking the health status of children and pregnant women.
This was revealed by the Acting Director General of Public Health, drg. Kartini Rustandi, M.Kes, that PeduliLindung can be used by pregnant women when undergoing examinations at health service facilities (fasyankes).
“Example of linking (PeduliLindung) by name, by NIK, every citizen has a NIK. As soon as it is scanned it will immediately come out. For example, when I was pregnant, the health center examination, no need to re-type the name, address, everything is the same,” drg . Kartini in the Central Java Public Health Development Expose, at the Alana Hotel, Boyolali, Thursday (10/12/2021).
So that said drg. Kartini, all of Indonesia’s health systems are in one big data through CareProtect app. This will also make it easier for health workers, so that there is no repeated input and overlapping of data.
“When the child’s name is clicked, the mother who has just given birth is filled in and recorded. Now, with this system, the recording does not need to be repeated. So it makes it easier for friends at the puskesmas, with a good signal for access,” said drg. Kartini.
As for efforts to make PeduliLindungi as Indonesia’s national health system, the Chief Digital Transformation Office of the Ministry of Health, Setiaji, St, M.Si, said some time ago.
According to Setiaji, later the PeduliLindung application will also be used for early detection of infectious diseases that are still epidemics or extraordinary events (KLB) in Indonesia, one of which is tuberculosis (TB).
“So it’s true, PeduliLindung is a large platform that can be developed for other infectious diseases. This will be a health service platform,” Setiaji said in the Digital Health Week discussion, Tuesday (30/11/2021).
Setiaji also revealed that more than 200 million Indonesians have accessed the PeduliLindung application, with 9 million people accessing the Covid-19 tracing application every day.
