Discussion
In 1995, Thailand's health ministry began to form a neutral agent to find a
way out of the conflict on the quality and cost between health services with
consumers. This initiative evolved into a research project on hospital
accreditation which aims to develop and implement a standard hospital
Comprehensive and serves as the basis for assessing the quality of hospital
(Sriratanaban 2010).
Hospital accreditation program in Thailand started to become a project
research supported by WHO, The Thailand Research Fund, and the Institute
Health Systems Research. In 1996, discovered a standard for assess the
quality of the health system functioning hospital for determine the
accreditation standards. The system was tested in 35 hospitals Public and
private voluntary basis in 1997. During this phase the committee counsel
advised to work with the involvement of various sectors between other
professional organizations, health care providers, owners of capital, and
consumer. Furthermore, it can form a collaboration for the development of
quality and hospital accreditation (Sriratanaban 2010). Some of the partners

regard to patient safety and quality of care. Here is a table that describes the
differences in the national health insurance system in Thailand and
Indonesia.
National health insurance system in Thailand and Indonesia have some
differences. If seen from the types of health insurance in Indonesia already
concentrated in the health insurance program Nasioanal (JKN) and managed
by Social Security Organizing Body Kesesehatan (BPJS Health) while in
Thailand This type of insurance is divided into three, namely Social Security
Scheme, Civil Servant's Medical Benefit Scheme and Medical Welfare
Scheme. Kepersertaanya, the health insurance system in Indonesia is
compulsory, while in Thailand automatically every citizen both working or not
work has the same right to get service healthcare in government hospitals.
The composition of participants in Indonesia divided into two: Recipient
Contribution (PBI) which is funded by the Government of through the state,
and Non-Recipients contribution is financed by contributions individuals and
business entities, while in Thailand Composition of participants in accordance
the type of insurance that is followed by the financing system is divided into
two ie Tax (SSS insurance types, CSMBS, and MWS) and Premium (types
Insurance VHI).
Payment Model of Health Services in Indonesia is divided into two: Capitation
for Primary Level Health Facilities (FKTP) and CBG'Sm Facility secondary and
tertiary level of health. Thailand has two health palayanan payment model
that capitation and DRG in accordance with the type of insurance that
followed.
Type of Health Services in Indonesia are Comprehensive (Promotive,
Preventive, curative and Rehabilitative) held at all facilities health (health
centers, clinics pratama, government hospitals, private hospitals and doctors
families that have taken in cooperation with the BPJS) whereas in Thailand
The type of health care and health facilities is limited in accordance with the
type of insurance that followed.
Conclusion
Most countries - developing countries to developed countries, has implement
the national health system. But discretion is different different one country
to another. Necessary their indicators and comparators the national health
system in a country so that we can find the lack or excess of a system in a
country. With overview of the national health system in Thailand we can see
how The national health system run on one instance hospitals government.
From the results of the visit hospitals in Thailand can be deduced that the
implementation of the national health system in Thailand is one results of
operations of the Thai government to promote the country. The health
system This national take more than 10 years to reach 99% Universal Health
Coverage. During that time one of the reinforced is an information system to
collect data accurately and right, so that this data then becomes the basis
for deciding the size capitation for primary health care in health centers and
hospitals, as well as perlayanan the cost per case in the RS.
In Indonesia, health information systems is still not running good. Service
charge, applicable in Indonesia is the tariff regulation set of unit cost, not the
real cost as in Thailand. It is also requires the support of a strong information
technology so that someday Indonesia also has a national health systembased data.
