In the year 2010, the second year of JKA implementation, the government was only able to allocate Rp. 382 billion from the total requirement of Rp. 482 billion.

In addition, there were complaints that quality of care is not optimum. The fee for service reimbursement system in JKA is one of the reasons for increase in cost of JKA. The main purposes of this study are to develop and implement the Casemix system as a provider payment mechanism and to assess its feasibilities to improve the performance of JKA program.
