The population of 147, sampling using totality sampling with inclusion criteria. The instrument to use questionnaires health-seeking behaviour list with Linkert scale closed questions through validity and reliability tests. The analytics process uses a double-liner regression with p= 0.05. Meanwhile, for models using SEM by looking at the value of the goodness of fit indicator. Overall, the independent variables together affect the health-seeking behaviour by 0.705 with an adjusted R of 0.720 which means that the independent variable affects the dependent variable together by 72% while 18% is influenced by other factors. The modelling results is finding that the model presented as a whole can be accepted as a model for the form of health-seeking behaviour during the pandemic with Chi-Square (x2)= 1.39, Probability= 0.278, CMIN/DF=1.189, RMSEA=0.041, GFI=0.921, AGFI=0.934
