JAKARTA - The Ministry of Health (Kemenkes) admits that it has experienced problems in the selection of government employees with a work agreement (P3K) in the health sector. The obstacle is related to filling in participant data.

"We admit that this is the first program carried out by the Ministry of Health. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Education and Culture has done this many times," said Director General of Health Workers Arianti Anaya at a press conference on Thursday, November 24.

According to him, the Ministry of Health has had a Health Human Resources Information System (SISDMK) for a long time.

However, Arianti argued that the compliance of health workers or local governments in filling in the personal data of related participants was still low and became an obstacle.

In fact, he said, the central government has repeatedly announced to immediately fill in data during the time given.

Unfortunately, continued Arianti, many health workers in the regions were unable to participate in the selection because there were still a lot of data that were not filled out properly.

"They also fill it up sometimes carelessly on the date (of the birth), the NIK is different, so they cannot enter. This is what harms the local government and the hospital itself. His name is already there or not, don't complete it like yesterday, just want the exam to be immediately confused," he said. confiscated by Antara.

Arianti admitted that the methods used previously in the selection of first aid in the health sector were the health office, regional government, and related health facilities that filled out participant data. The government also seeks to solve the problem by providing personal passwords to participants.

Through the procurement of account passwords for each participant, all health workers who take part in the selection can participate in re-checking personal data that has been filled into the system.

If discrepancies are found later, the relevant parties can immediately contact the regional government for data correction.

Server Constraints

Then regarding the server, Arianti admitted that the problem occurred during the extension of registration for 10-14 November 2022.

If the system is only accessed by 5 thousand-1000 registrants per day, at the time of extension of registration as much as 50 thousand data enter suddenly.

"It happened on the first day, finally immediately down the server. I didn't expect that much because we didn't predict that there were still 200,000 left," he said.

Responding to this, the Ministry of Health through digital technology officer immediately made improvements to the system to expand its reach, so that many registrants can still access the system simultaneously.

"So the server was immediately enlarged to be able (to accommodate everything) and it turns out that in four days there were 200,000 new registrants, that's actually the problem faced," he said.

For information, the deadline for registering for first aid in the health sector, which was originally closed on November 18, was changed to November 22, 2022. The results of the administrative selection will be announced today, November 24-25.
