Since January, 192 Honorarium For COVID-19 Vaccination Officers In Aceh Has Not Been Paid

ACEH - Payment of the honorarium for the COVID-19 vaccination officer in Nagan Raya District, Aceh Province, is late.

The local government is still trying to disburse funds to pay for the 192 members of the COVID-19 vaccination team in Nagan Raya District who have not received honorarium since January 2021.

"We are working on it", said Head of the Nagan Raya District Health Office, Said Azman at Suka Makmue, as reported by Antara, Wednesday, March 23.

He said that the late payment of the vaccination officers' honorarium did not interfere with the implementation of the COVID-19 vaccination for health workers, public service workers, and elderly citizens.

"Vaccination for COVID-19 is still ongoing, there are no obstacles at all", he said.

Separately, the Head of the Regional Financial Management Agency for Aceh Nagan Raya Regency Ali Munir said the honorarium for COVID-19 vaccination officers could not be disbursed because the local government was still making budget transfers.

"The proposals from the health offices and hospitals have been submitted, and are currently in the process of inputting (data entry) and will be discussed further by the Regional Government Budget Team", he said.

He ensured that the disbursement of funds to pay the vaccination officers' honorarium could be carried out in April 2021, after the discussion of budget transfers was complete.
