Abstract

This mixed method research aimed to study perception and satisfaction of stakeholders towards national health security system in Health Region 10. The data were collected by questionnaire and semi-structured interview. Data analysis was done by using descriptive statistic and content analysis. The results of this study were based on interviews with 294 clients aged between 15 - 77 years old, and 304 service providers aged between 22 - 59 years old. Perceptions of all aspects of the national health se­curity among providers and clients were high to highest, and satisfactions on national health security among providers and clients were highest. Their recommendations included: health promotion and disease prevention should be emphasized; cross-boundary medical expenses should be allowed to manage locally; fund should be transferred directly to health promoting hospital; personnel of the local government organization should be trained on relevant regulations of fund management.
