Summary
According to Law Number 36 Year 2009, health is a human right and one of the elements of welfare that must be realized in accordance with the idea of Indonesian nation in sense of Pancasila and the Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia Year 1945. The purpose of health development is to improve the health status which in the future is expected to be a tool for development and empowerment of human resources that can be used as capital to realize the national development completely. Health programs should be seen as comprehensive strategies to improve the social and economic welfare of a population. Those strategies need chosen programs that can improve health status efficiently. By developing health service networks, clean water infrastructure, improving public nutrition, immunization, etc. According to Tjiptoherijanto and Soesetyo (1994), the discussion on health economics is more focused on health services rather than its own health. Some public health initiatives are inherent in the blood center, such as providing human immunodeficiency virus educational material, whereas other initiatives have been actively created, such as cardiovascular screening, as a means to increase blood donor rates and increase the blood center's community interaction (Shaz, et al, 2012)
