JAKARTA - Soekarno-Hatta Airport has started to apply digital health document validation in the PeduliLindung application for prospective airline passengers.

PT Angkasa Pura II President Director Muhammad Awaluddin said this implementation was to strengthen health protocols in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.

"We ask for the support of prospective airplane passengers in implementing this provision, which is in accordance with the Circular Letter of the Minister of Health Number 847 of 2021," Muhammad Awaluddin said as quoted by Antara, Monday, July 19.

The policy refers to the provisions of the Circular Letter (SE) of the Ministry of Health Number 847 of 2021 concerning the Digitization of Health Documents for Air Transport Users who are integrated with the PeduliLindung application.

In line with that, prospective airplane passengers are required to download the PeduliLindung application on iOS or Android and register. If the prospective passenger has been vaccinated, a vaccination card will appear in the application.

Prospective passengers are also required to carry out a Covid-19 test in 742 laboratories that are integrated with the Ministry of Health's New All Record (NAR) data, where later test results will also be directly uploaded to the PeduliLindung application.

"The names of the 742 laboratories are listed in the Circular Letter of the Minister of Health Number 4642/2021 concerning the Organization of the Covid-19 Examination Laboratory," he said.

There is also an inspection/validation of digital health documents (vaccination cards and Covid-19 test results) in the PeduliLindung application which will be carried out at the airport by personnel from the Ministry of Health's Port Health Office (KKP Kemenkes) as well as at the check-in counter by airlines using barcode scanners and /or the CareProtect application microsite.

"As is known, currently a vaccination card and a valid COVID-19 test result letter are requirements for prospective airplane passengers to be able to travel," said Awaluddin.

According to him, the application of digitizing the health documents of prospective airline passengers which is integrated with PeduliLindung is also to prevent or eliminate the potential for counterfeiting vaccination cards or Covid-19 test results, be it PCR or antigen.

Awaluddin said that starting Monday, July 19, 2021, AP II will gradually test this procedure at 17 airports managed by the company.

The 17 airports are Halim Perdanakusuma (Jakarta), Kualanamu (Medan), Supadio (Pontianak), Minangkabau (Padang), Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II (Palembang), Sultan Syarif Kasim II (Pekanbaru), Husein Sastranegara (Bandung), Sultan Iskandar Muda (Banda Aceh), Raja Haji Fisabilillah (Tanjungpinang).

Then Sultan Thaha (Jambi), Depati Amir (Pangkal Pinang), Silangit (North Tapanuli), Banyuwangi (Banyuwangi), Tjilik Riwut (Palangkaraya), Radin Inten II (Lampung), HAS Hanandjoeddin (Tanjung Pandan), Fatmawati Soekarno (Bengkulu) .

"Starting July 19, a trial of digital health document validation in the PeduliLindung application will be carried out in stages at 17 airports. We ask for the support of prospective airline passengers in implementing this provision, which is in accordance with the Circular Letter of the Minister of Health Number 847 of 2021," he said.

As a form of support, AP II airports together with the local Ministry of Health KKP will also coordinate with laboratories that are included in the list of 742 laboratories so that they can jointly succeed in the implementation of digitizing health documents in accordance with SE Minister of Health Number 847 of 2021.
