TARAKAN - The police have returned to pay back the excess payment for the COVID-19 rapid test fee carried out by the Tarakan City Pertamina Hospital to the public.
"The total refund of overpayments for the rapid test fee is Rp105,400,000," said Director of Criminal Investigation of the North Kalimantan Regional Police, Kombes Thomas Panji Susbandaru, quoted by Antara, Thursday, February 18.
The overpayment is related to the implementation of the rapid test for the period of May 2, 2020 to June 8, 2020, according to the Circular of the Mayor of Tarakan Number 2350/328 / DINKES / 2020 dated May 2, 2020.
The refund of the overpayment of the rapid test fee which was submitted to Subdit III / Tipidkor was based on the results of an investigation into the alleged corruption in the payment of rapid test fees, which is not in accordance with Permenkes Number 85/2015 concerning National Hospital Tariff Patterns.
Based on the results of the investigation conducted by Sub-Directorate III / Tipidkor, and the results of calculations by the Apip Inspectorate of the City of Tarakan, North Kalimantan, it was found that the difference in overpayment of fees by the community was IDR 200,000 / rapid test at Pertamina Tarakan Hospital.
With these findings, the Director of Pertamina Tarakan Hospital, drg. Ari Setyo Nugroho, has submitted the overpayment to Subdit 3 Tipidkor Polda Kaltara.
The funds were then returned to Pertamina Hospital to be returned to the people who had carried out the rapid test and made excessive payments.
Technique for taking overpayments The community can coordinate with Pertamina Tarakan Hospital. "Hopefully this activity will benefit the community," said Susbandanu.
