BPJS Kesehatan and KPK Extend Anti-Corruption Cooperation

The Director-General of BPJS Kesehatan, Prihati Pujowaskito, visited the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) to renew a crucial partnership aimed at preventing corruption. The existing memorandum of understanding was set to expire in March 2026, creating an urgency to extend the collaboration.

“

With the KPK, we have had an MoU for a long time and it ends in March 2026, so there is an urgency to immediately continue that MoU, hence our presence today to extend it.

BPJS Kesehatan, responsible for managing Indonesia's social health insurance, handles an annual fund of around Rp 190 trillion. Pujowaskito emphasized the necessity of high-level governance and integrity in managing these funds to ensure they are optimally used for participant healthcare services.

To combat fraud, BPJS Kesehatan employs concrete measures such as Corruption Risk Assessment, PAKSI (Anti-Corruption Educators), Corruption Prevention Guidelines (PanCeK), and a Whistleblowing System. These initiatives aim to bolster the integrity of BPJS Kesehatan's financial management.

“

Some of these things will be done so that this can increase the integrity of BPJS Kesehatan to account for every rupiah for the benefit of health financing.

KPK Deputy for Information and Data, Eko Marjono, highlighted that BPJS Kesehatan manages the National Health Insurance, which impacts the lives of many Indonesians. He stressed the importance of oversight to ensure optimal services for the entire nation.

And of course for the benefit of the people of all of Indonesia.
