The Impact of Jamkesmas on Healthcare Utilization in Eastern Regions of Indonesia: a Propensity Score Matching Method

Underutilization of health care for the poor is one critical problem in Indonesia. Out of pocket share is dominant on overall health financing. Therefore, it is plausible that low demand of modern healthcare services mainly relates to financial aspect. In 2008, the government of Indonesia has introduced health insurance schemes for the poor to help them overcome the problem of medical costs barrier called Jamkesmas (Social Health Insurance). This paper examines the impact evaluation of Jamkesmas to health care utilization in Eastern Indonesia. Data are drawn from Indonesia Family Life Survey East (IFLS-East) that held in 2012. This data only covers the eastern regions of In­donesia that widely known has relatively lower performance in development and infrastructure. Moreover, this study employs Propensity Score Matching (PSM) approach to analyse the data. The results show that average treatment effect for treated group are positive for outpatient utilization. In addition, availability of the healthcare facility variables, travelling time and distance to district capital are factors that determine Jamkemas coverage in Eastern Indonesia

Perhitungan Nilai Ambang Batas Erosi dengan Metode Modified Productivity Index di DAS Bompon Kabupaten Magelang

Nilai ambang batas erosi (T) sebagai salah satu batasan utama belum menjadi fokus studi yang utama, padahal di negara maju telah memiliki standar nilai T (Adi, 2003 ; Duan et al.,2009; Arsyad, 2010; Mandal & Sharda, 2011). Metode Modified Productivity Index (MPI) merupakan suatu metode baru, dan dapat menjadi alternatif metode perhitungan nilai T di Indonesia. Perhitungan nilai T dilakukan di DAS Bompon dengan memanfatkan metode MPI oleh Duan et al (2009). Satuan pemetaan disusun atas bentuklahan yang didetilkan dengan informasi vegetasi. Nilai indeks produktivitas (IP) di DAS bompon tergolong rendah rata-rata hanya sebesar 0,02. Nilai IP yang rendah juga berpengaruh terhadap nilai T yang rata-rata sebesar 15,91 Ton/Ha/Tahun. Nilai T terukur di DAS Bompon lebih rendah dibanding nilai T di beberapa wilayah di Indonesia, karena adanya perbedaan metode dan pendekatan. Uji sensitivitas menunjukkan parameter paling sensitif untuk IP adalah kandungan lempung, dan untuk nilai T adalah erosi aktual

Pengaruh Variasi Shot Peening Aisi 304 Terhadap Perambatan Retak Fatik

Banyaknya kasus patahnya struktur penyambung tulang membuat para peneliti dan perekayasamelakukan kajian dan riset, dimana hasil kajian menunjukan retak fatik dan korosi adalah penyebabutama kegagalan material implant. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjawab salah satu penyebabkegagalan karena retak fatik, yaitu dengan surface treatment (shot peening). Pengaruh variasialmen dalam shot peening pada perilaku perambatan retak fatik material stainless steel austenitic(AISI 304) telah dilakukan. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa almen 0,6 mempunyai karakteristikperambatan retak fatik C= 7E-12 & n= 4,0946, almen 0,8 C= 1E-16 & n= 8,3773, almen 0,10 C=6E-15 & n= 6,3266, non-treatment C= 7E-12 & n= 4,9425. Dari hasil penelitian didapatkesimpulan bahwa semakin tinggi (jangansampai over shot peening) variasi almen ternyatamemperpendek umur fatik

Pengaruh Perbedaan Metode Ekstraksi Daun Jati (Tectona Grandis L.f) Terhadap Aktivitas Antibakteri Pada Escherichia Coli

The use of teak is limited to wood and stems with high economic value. The part of the teak that has not been utilized optimally is the teak leaf. Teak leaves are only used traditionally as food wrappers and traditional medicines. According to several studies, Sumthong (2007) in Setyawan (2012) stated that teak leaves contain several bioactive compounds, namely tektoquinone, tannic acid, gallic acid and several other organic acids. The presence of bioactive compounds in teak leaves can also be used as an antibacterial agent. This study was conducted to determine the effect of different extraction methods maceration, percolation and microwave Microwave Assisted Extraction on the antibacterial activity of teak leaves against Escherichia coli bacteria. From the research, it can be concluded that the different extraction methods of teak (Tectona grandis L.f) leaves have a significant effect on the antibacterial activity of Escherichia coli and the microwave extraction method is effective as an antibacterial against Escherichia coli as seen from the clear zone produced which is greater than the maceration and percolation extraction methods
