In this update, the Ministry of Health will provide more complete data than before, as well as a more interactive page display, thereby facilitating the monitoring process for the availability of data for health workers in the regions.

The Minister of Health also hopes that the development of the Sinakes platform will continue to be improved while maintaining the quality of the data, because the data will be a reference for the government to make the right and accurate decisions, especially those related to health workers.

''For me, the neatness and quality of the data is very important, especially to support the fulfillment of health workers in the regions, later we can meet it, between supply and demand for health workers in each region,'' explained the Minister of Health on its official website, quoted by VOI Tuesday, March 14.

Setiaji's Chief Digital Transformation Office (DTO) also revealed that this platform update allows the government to obtain and provide databases of various types of health workers that are accurate, structured and real time in each region in Indonesia.

"So we can plan the needs of health workers in real time, later of course we can develop it in terms of facilities and infrastructure," said Setiaji further.

Setiaji revealed that the process of integrating health workers data has started in 2022. And so far, 100 percent of the data integration of health workers has been completed, while the data complexity has reached 90 percent.

Given the importance of this data, Setiaji encouraged health workers and health agencies to immediately complete it. '' We hope that it can be completed as soon as possible, so that it can be used for planning, we will continue to pursue it,' he added.
