HEA - Health Financing Activity (Indonesia)

The purpose of this Activity is to support the Government of Indonesia (GOI) to sustain and increase efficiency in financing for health to improve financial protection, equitable access to quality health services, and health outcomes in USAID priority areas of HIV, Tuberculosis (TB), and Maternal and Newborn Health (MNH).

The USAID Health Financing Activity has two objectives: 1) Improved sustainability of GOI financing for health.

USAID seeks technical assistance to support Indonesian institutions to conceptualize, conduct and apply the necessary health financing analyses and tools needed to drive health sector reform.

The Contractor will work with GOI counterparts to gather and improve the availability of quality data, perform analyses, present results, and advise on systems implications and policy options to improve the quality of current GOI health spending; increase GOI spending in the health sector; and improve JKN performance on critical indicators of cost, quality, and access.

Collaborating and working directly with Indonesian universities and think tanks (Centers of Excellence) along with GOI stakeholders under this objective is intended to increase the store of technical knowledge and leadership ability within the Indonesian health system. 2) Strategic health purchasing mechanisms and capacities improved.

There is substantial opportunity to improve health financing efficiency through refinement of health care purchasing methods and strengthening the way GOI agencies are organized to do this work.

The USAID HF Activity will provide technical assistance to support the GOI in designing, implementing, monitoring and improving health care service delivery models, including provider payment mechanisms with the aim of contributing toward the achievement of better health outcomes and stabilizing cost per member enrolled in JKN.

Based on assessing the results of current purchasing mechanisms, refinements to current approaches should be made or alternative purchasi
