A plan to upgrade 83,000 village cooperative clinics to serve BPJS patients ignores a current monthly deficit of 2 trillion rupiah. The model mandates two doctors per clinic despite a national ratio of only 0.76 per 1,000 people, creating a recruitment impossibility.
This likely poaches existing staff from puskesmas rather than adding capacity, leaving rural patients with fewer choices and longer queues. The fiscal logic is fragile given the lack of clear funding sources, making the expansion a potential fiscal burden rather than a solution.
