JAKARTA - Head of the Presidential Communication Office (PCO) Hasan Nasbi said that the implementation of the Free Health Check (CKG) program in schools will reach all regions of Indonesia, with the inspection process taking place in stages until December 2025.

"If everything is implemented, this school is visited as a kick-off point that we monitor, but if its implementation is in all schools in Indonesia," Hasan Nasbi said while reviewing CKG activities at SMAN 6 South Tangerang, Monday, was confiscated by Antara.

As of the kick off agenda, Hasan said, the School CKG team involving medical personnel from each regional health office will 'pick up the ball' to schools until December 2025.

In line with that, the Head of the Health Development Policy Agency of the Indonesian Ministry of Health, Prof. Asnawi Abdullah, explained that the coverage of this program can be optimized because almost all regions of Indonesia already have a Puskesmas, which has been running the School Health Business (UKS) program.

"On average, elementary, junior high, high school schools have collaborated with the Puskesmas. God willing, all school residents can be served well," he said.

Regarding the technical implementation in schools, said Asnawi, the inspection was carried out in turns so as not to interfere with learning activities.

"Today, for example, grade 1, tomorrow next class, and so on," he said.

He added that the CKG program in schools would be an annual agenda carried out at the beginning of the school year.

CKG activities at SMAN 6 Tangsel target 1,225 students who will be rolling for the next three days to check the health condition of the participants.

Services at the school are divided into two local classrooms. In the first class, participant registration is carried out, either directly or online, continuing to measurements of height, weight, and waist circumference as well as blood pressure checks.

Participants, then go to the classroom next to it for further examination in the form of eye tests, hearing, mouth, and distributing blood-boosting tablets for students.

For participants who are considered to have experienced a special incident, the officer will refer to the nearest puskesmas for further examination.
