Purpose of the study: The purpose of the study is to measure the efficiency of the healthcare system in Indonesia in 2014-2018.
Methodology:The Data Envelopment Analysis model was used to analyze 33 Provinces in Indonesia in the 2014-2018 period. The input variables are the number of health human resources at the community health centre, health human resources at the hospital, the number of hospitals, the number of community health centres and the realization of per capita deconcentration health funds. The output variable was Life Expectancy Index.
Main Findings:The results of the analysis show that Lampung, West Java, Banten, West Nusa Tenggara and West Sulawesi whose health system reaches efficiency compared to other provinces in Indonesia during the observation period.Applications: This result suggests that the provinces where health services are inefficient are caused by the low absorption of health deconcentration funds. These findings indicate that the distribution of health services in all regions has not been equally conveyed. These findings can be used to develop a program to assist and improve the efficiency of the health care system in Indonesia.
Novelty:One of the input variables used in this study is the realization of health deconcentration funds per capita which is the novelty of previous research.
Waste management in the big cities of Indonesia is still become a complicated problem. This article aims to analyze the influence of socio-economic factors which consist of GRDP per capita, population density, gender ratio, the proportion of population productive age and education on the efficiency of waste management service (WMS) in provincial capitals in Indonesia. The method used was Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA). The resulted WMS efficiency from this study were 0.39. Based on that value, it means the efficiency of WMS are still low and the efficiency can be improved about 61%. It also can be concluded that all variables were significantly influenced the WMS efficiency, except gender ratio. Expected that the result of this study can be used by both central and local government to improve the WMS in Indonesia.
Human development is a good indicator to measure the progress of a nation.Welfare of a nation measured not only from the gross domestic product, but also from the human development aspect, which include education and public health. The paper represented education and health aspect by the Human Development Index (HDI) while the economic performance is reflected by the value of Purcashing Power Parity (PPP) index. This study analyzes the efficiency of government spending on human development using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). The study shows that the level of efficiency of government spending on human development in some districts in Central Java during 2008 -2012 is more than 90%.
