"For July, trials will be conducted in several vertical hospitals under the Ministry of Health," said Member of the National Social Security Council (DJSN) Muttaqien as quoted by Antara, Tuesday, June 28.

Currently, there are 33 vertical hospitals under the authority of the Ministry of Health, including H. Adam Malik Hospital, National Stroke Hospital, Dr. Central General Hospital. Mohammad Hoesin Palembang, Fatmawati Hospital, Drug Addiction Hospital, Friendship Hospital.

However, Muttaqien has not specifically explained the government vertical hospital in question.

"At the present stage, the Ministry of Health, DJSN and BPJS Health are finalizing the trial designs and are preparing several hospitals that will be used as test sites. The designs prepared include one inpatient room which will accommodate a maximum of four patients," said Muttaqien.

He said the trial was important to ensure changes in the JKN ecosystem and to encourage sustainable health programs, improve service quality and achieve equity.

Regarding the adjustment of the amount of contributions, said Muttaqien, it is still in the calculation stage which is adjusted to the people's ability to pay and considers the sustainability of the Health Social Security Fund (DJS).

There has not been any change regarding the amount of contributions," he said.
