JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has asked the Mataram City Regional Umun Hospital (RSUD) in West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) to increase transparency in financial management and assets and follow the rules with third parties for the procurement of goods and services.

This was conveyed by the Head of the Sub-Directorate Task Force (Kasatgas) Region V KPK Dian Patria after holding a coordination meeting on governance and public services for the health sector at the Mataram City Hospital.

"Don't let similar cases occur in Central Lombok and Sumbawa," Dian told reporters in Mataram, Wednesday, June 12, which was confiscated by Antara.

In addition, Dian noted that the transparency of the Mataram City Hospital with third parties such as parking management, canteens, hemodialysis, and the IVF program, which will be opened, must be read carefully. This is intended to avoid non-transparent and accountable gaps leading to irregularities or others.

"We have received reports about it, but we cannot convey it here," he added.

Furthermore, Dian said, the findings of the KPK in a number of hospitals in the eastern region included stalled facilities. Even though the special allocation funds (DAK) have been entered but cannot be continued because the fiscal capacity is limited so that DAK is used for others.

This had an impact on health workers who were not paid so that many health workers held demonstrations.

"In addition, there are hospitals but there are no doctors. There are doctors but there are no tools, even if there are tools, there are no technicians," said Dian.

However, he added, from the results of the monitoring, these conditions did not occur at the Mataram City Hospital.

Meanwhile, the Managing Director of the Mataram City Hospital, Eka Nurhayati, and his staff who were present at the KPK activity responded positively to input from anti-corruption agencies. "What is noted by the KPK, we will evaluate for future improvements," said Eka.
