“…The multivariate analysis results found that wealth status is one of the determinants of health insurance ownership among pregnant women. This finding confirms previous studies’ works with the same research theme in Nigeria and Ghana, which informed that those who have good wealth status are more likely to participate in health insurance [ 18 , 35 , 36 ]. Pregnant women with low wealth status probably do not have a fixed source of income.…”

Pregnant women with wealth status in the middle category were 0.679 times the poorest pregnant women to have health insurance. Meanwhile, the richest pregnant women had 1.358 times more chances than the poorest pregnant women to have health insurance. Grande multiparous pregnant women were 1.544 times more likely than primiparous pregnant women to have health insurance. Pregnant women who know the danger signs of pregnancy were 1.416 times more likely than pregnant women who don’t see the danger signs of pregnancy to have health insurance.

“…The results of this study indicate that employment is a protective factor for Mollucans in Indonesia to have health insurance, both government-run, and private-run types. The findings in this study confirm several previous studies in Sout-East Nigeria, Sweden, and Spain, including in Indonesia, which inform similar findings (Kullberg, Blomqvist and Winblad, 2019;Sari and Idris, 2019;Alo, Okedo-Alex and Akamike, 2020;Pinilla and López-Valcárcel, 2020). This is related to the level of income a person gets due to work which affects the wealth status they have (Pinilla and López-Valcárcel, 2020;Wan et al, 2020).…”

“…Exemplary health insurance implementation, especially social insurance, can overcome barriers to finance access to health services. Health insurance participants do not need to worry anymore about the high cost of services at health facilities because there is already a transfer of risk through an insurance mechanism (Szigeti et al, 2019;Alo et al, 2020;. The health financing policy issued by the Indonesian government through JKN is a step forward.…”

The antenatal treatment has been ineffective in reducing maternal mortality. Therefore, this study aimed to examine health insurance effect on Indonesia's antenatal care quality. The 2017 Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey data were processed. Moreover, a sample size of 15,351 participants was selected using the analysis unit of study for women aged 15 to 49. In the final stage, Binary Logistic Regression was used, while other variables examined besides antenatal treatment included health insurance, residence, age, marital, education, parity, and wealth. Based on the complete category of antenatal care visits, women that did antenatal care visits were ≥ four, occupied by both types of health insurance ownership. The multivariable analysis indicated that health insurance ownership affects antenatal care completeness as insured women were 1.394 times higher than uninsured women (OR= 1.394; 95% CI= 1.257-1.546). Result showed other determinant variables, namely age, education, parity, and wealth were also found. In conclusion, health insurance gives Indonesian women a better possibility of receiving complete antenatal care.
