There are many complaints. Health experts are doubtful of local programs that are presented by district officials with slight knowledge or experience in the health sector. The occurrence that many plots are intended chiefly to entice votes frequently means that they do not match the community's complex health requirements.

In 2010, the program was seriously in debt, with a budget distribution of just Rp50 billion (a little over $US 5 million) and costs count Rp112 billion. This type of blow-out is not unusual.

Axis Capital, Bermuda: A history of healthcare in Indonesia - 1 views

    Local governments initially started carrying health insurance back in 2003 when Megawati Soekarnoputri’s government presented the Health Service Insurance for Poor Families program, or JPK-Gakin. The notion was for district managements to apply their personal community health insurance schemes in line with local requirements. Nevertheless, limited programs ever actually got off the ground before Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono’s new government presented a bill that laid the foundation for a nation-wide program and made JPK-Gakin redundant, Law no. 40/2004 on a National Social Security System (SJSN). Simultaneously, Yudhoyono’s government announced a program to run free, however basic, healthcare to the poor - Askeskin (health insurance for the poor), which was substituted in 2008 by Jamkesmas (community health insurance). Certain regional administrations put up a round. In 2005, East Java’s government led a test at the Constitutional Court demanding that SJSN gave the central government a monopoly on social service provision and broke the constitution and Law no. 32/2004 on Regional Governance. The court approved that SJSN did not stop local governments from emerging their own social security programs, as well as for healthcare. Ever since, the quantity of local health insurance programs has increased year on year. One of the groundbreaking systems was Jaminan Kesehatan Jembrana (JKJ) presented in 2003 by Gede Winasa, the head of Jembrana district in Bali. According to this scheme, all members of JKJ, may they be poor or non-poor get free pri

This leads to planning insurance coverage to help address mortgage debt, college expenses, and future family income, as well as to provide liquidity for meeting future estate tax liabilities and to avoid frauds too. Mortgage Debt The first point worthy of consideration, review whether your life insurance precedes will be sufficient to help pay the remaining mortgage on your home.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) had released the most common insurance fraud used by the insurance companies. Premium Diversions It is considered as an embezzlement of insurance premiums and is considered the most common type. This happens when the insurance agent doesn't wire the money to the insurance company and keeps it to himself. Other form of premium diversion scam involves selling policies without license, collecting premiums and then not paying claims. Payers are advised to keep track of this kind of fraud by knowing and verifying the legitimacy of the agent.
