Recommendations
- Develop and publish a clear plan outlining how the government will deliver its share of the global targets agreed to in the Political Declaration from the United Nations High-Level Meeting on TB and establish a cross-governmental working group to monitor and evaluate progress made against those targets. This means fully funding the National TB budget (currently only 51% funded).
- Commit to fully funding the national TB program by increasing domestic expenditures on health; Indonesia can increase domestic expenditure for TB more than 700% by prioritizing and increasing the efficiency of tuberculosis services, improving allocation and pooling of heath sector.
- Scale up access to TB services for all those seeking TB services by optimizing engagement of the private sector providers and guaranteeing universal access to drug susceptibility testing and second line TB drugs.
- Scale up health insurance under universal health coverage to facilitate the provision of universal TB care for people with TB.
