Abstract

Background: Health financing provided by the government greatly helps the implementation of health system in the decentralized era. General Allocation Fund and Local Revenue and Expenditure Budget are apparently inadequate to finance health service. Some efforts have been made to finance health service such as Community Health Insurance (Jamkesmas), Childbirth Insurance (Jampersal), and Health Operational Fund (Bantuan Operasional Kesehatan/BOK). These are meant to achieve Millennium Development Goals in 2015. The practice of coordination from planning to implementation and stakeholders’ commitment can affect the process of maternal and child health service. Coordination is definitely needed to run the program policy and prevent the overlapping financing in order that the objective of the program can be achieved. Objective: To evaluate coordination of planning, implementation and stakeholders’ commitment in relation to maternal and child health (MCH) service in Lombok Tengah District. Method: This was a descriptive-analytical study with a qualitative approach and a case-study design. Samples were taken purposively. The data were obtained through in-depth interview, observation and documentation analysis. Result: The planning coordination of MCH health financing had not been optimal, even despite the involvement of cross sector and program. However, the organizations of health professionals were not involved in program planning. The coordination of health financing implementation had not been optimal as well. Even though there was no overlapping financing from some different sources, in the policy implementation there was cost sharing for referral and drugs. Private sectors were not involved in the implementation of Jampersal. Stakeholders’ commitment was relatively optimum as reflected from the policy and action in health development acceleration particularly MCH. The process of MCH service at both primary and secondary level could run well. Conclusion: Coordination of MCH financing implementation in Lombok Tengah District through BOK, Jampersal, Jamkesmas, Community Empowerment National Program of Healthy and Smart Generation and Local Revenue and Expenditure Budget had not been optimal; therefore, it needed to be improved to eliminate cost sharing. Professional organizations and private health providers were not yet involved in the program planning and implementation.
