In 2014 the Indonesian government introduced a national health insurance program and provided insurance premium subsidies for poor people. This study aims to evaluate the health subsidy policy’s impact on the utilization of different kinds of health care facilities. Two waves of Indonesian socio-economic surveys, namely 2013 and 2018, and two analysis methods, namely logistic regression, and difference-in-differences, were applied in this study. The results show that in first-level healthcare facilities, the health subsidy improves the probability of outpatient visits in public health centres and polyclinics but decreases the probability of outpatient visits in medical practices. Then, in secondary-level health care facilities, the health subsidy increased the likelihood of outpatient visits in public hospitals; however, it lowers the probability of outpatient visits in private hospitals.

Pada tahun 2014 pemerintah Indonesia menciptakan program Jaminan Kesehatan Nasional dan memberikan subsidi premi asuransi bagi masyarakat miskin. Studi ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi dampak kebijakan subsidi kesehatan terhadap pemanfaatan fasilitas pelayanan kesehatan. Studi ini menggunakan survei sosial ekonomi Indonesia (SUSENAS) tahun 2013 dan 2018, serta menerapkan dua metode analisis, yaitu regresi logistik, dan difference-in-differences. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pada fasilitas kesehatan tingkat pertama, subsidi kesehatan meningkatkan kemungkinan kunjungan rawat jalan di puskesmas dan poliklinik, tetapi menurunkan kemungkinan kunjungan rawat jalan di praktik tenaga medis. Kemudian, pada fasilitas kesehatan tingkat lanjut, subsidi kesehatan dapat meningkatkan kemungkinan kunjungan rawat jalan di rumah sakit umum, namun menurunkan kemungkinan kunjungan rawat jalan di rumah sakit swasta.
