ILLUSTRATION - DOC. ANTARA

JAKARTA - The Ministry of Health (Kemenkes) is transforming PeduliLindungi into a public health application called SatuSehat Mobile starting March 1.

"PeduliLindungi will undergo major changes tonight and can be utilized by the community as SatuHealth Mobile starting March 1, 2023," said Health Technology Expert Staff and Chief Digital Transformation Office (DTO) of the Ministry of Health, Setiaji, reported by ANTARA, Tuesday, February 28.

People who have downloaded PeduliLindungi only need to update the application via PlayStore or AppStore, either automatically or manually.

After agreeing to the terms and conditions at SatuSehat Mobile, users only need to log in with the cellphone number or email that has been registered.

The initial stages of updating the application are intended for IOS users. Meanwhile, for Android users, it will be available in the near future.

"Member profiles, certificates, and COVID-19 vaccine tickets will also be synchronized automatically. So after giving approval, SatuSehat Mobile users don't have to bother creating a new account to start using SatuSehat Mobile," he said.

The features available on the application are in the form of features that existed before at PeduliLindungi, such as COVID-19 vaccination, antigen and PCR test results, and scanning the QR code at check-in.

"In the near future, there will also be a new feature called Health Diary, which can record and monitor the health conditions of yourself and those closest to you," said Setiaji.

There are four conditions that can be recorded in this feature, namely body measurements (height and weight), blood pressure, blood sugar, and heart rate. After that various information will appear such as the health curve, analysis, and recommendations for further action.

"With the Health Diary feature, SatuSehat Mobile can help and provide information to monitor health according to the user's body condition, and this can be accessed anywhere and anytime," he said.

In its development plan, SatuSehat Mobile will gradually add a variety of other personal health support features whose data is sourced and integrated with the Electronic Medical Record (RME) through the SatuSehat Platform.

"From child immunization matters, queuing to the hospital, examination results, to drug purchase data will later be accessible and integrated through SatuSehat Mobile," he said.

Registration for SatuSehat integration has begun to open to the public through satusehat.kemkes.go.id/platform.

"We hope that this portal can serve as a guide for the private sector and IT developers at Health Offices in districts and cities in applying the same standards to be able to perform data interoperability with the SatuSehat Platform," he said.

The portal also provides various playbooks for health facilities in adjusting interoperability standards and data integration, starting from the interoperability module, patient data master, and health worker data master, as well as a terminology browser and Pharmacy and Medical Devices Dictionary (KFA).
