President Director of BPJS Kesehatan, Maj. Gen. (Ret.) dr. Prihati Pujowaskito, made a strategic visit to the KPK Red and White Building in Jakarta on Wednesday (8/7/2026). This meeting aimed to strengthen collaboration in preventing fraudulent practices within the National Health Insurance (JKN) ecosystem.
Prihati emphasized the importance of maintaining integrity in managing participant contribution funds, which reach IDR 190 trillion annually. With a total membership of 286 million people or 98 percent of Indonesia's population, BPJS Kesehatan has a moral responsibility to ensure that every rupiah is disbursed transparently and accountably for the benefit of public health services.
During the audience, both institutions agreed on several concrete steps to close loopholes for abuse. Key strategic programs to be implemented include corruption risk assessments, the formation of Anti-Corruption Extension Workers (Paksi), the drafting of corruption prevention guidelines, and the strengthening of the Whistleblowing System (WBS).
It was acknowledged that potential fraud in the healthcare ecosystem can originate from various lines, including service providers, medical personnel, participants, and internal parties. Although estimated fraud findings once reached IDR 6 trillion, BPJS Kesehatan management ensured that this figure is now continuously reduced through a multi-tiered audit system involving internal supervision, the Audit Board of Indonesia (BPK), and KPK assistance.
KPK Deputy for Information and Data, Eko Marjono, welcomed the initiative. According to him, safeguarding health funds is a priority for the anti-graft agency as it affects the lives of many people. The prevention innovations agreed upon today are expected to optimize JKN services and guarantee the sustainability of health funds for all Indonesian people.
