BPJS Kesehatan (Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Sosial Kesehatan, Health Social Security Agency) is a social security agency of Indonesia aimed at providing universal health care to its citizens.[1]

In January 2014, the Indonesian government launched a universal health care system called the Jaminan Kesehatan Nasional (JKN). Covering around 250 million people, it is the world's most extensive insurance system.[2] As part of the JKN, on 1 January 2014, PT Askes (Persero) was changed from a state-owned company into BPJS Kesehatan, a public agency, which becomes the provider of JKN.[3][4] It is expected that the entire population will be covered in 2019.[5][6][7]

In 2016, the BPJS program had a deficit of more than six trillion IDR. However, the deficit ballooned to 32 trillion in only three years.[8] In response, the government issued a policy that increases the monthly premium for access by 80 to 100% . Some saw the move as placing a burden on the low- and middle-income citizens.[9][10][11]

Every Indonesian citizen and foreigner who has worked in Indonesia for at least six months must become a member of the program in accordance with Article 14 of the BPJS Regulation.[12]
