Anas conveyed this statement when he met with Minister of Health Budi Gunadi Sadikin and Deputy Minister of Health Dante Saksono Harbuwono at the Ministry of PANRB on Thursday (Aug 1).
"I appreciate the Ministry of Health that has carried out an impactful transformation, and this can become a sustainable culture within the ministry," Anas noted in his statement here on Friday.
"This was realized owing to the extraordinary efforts of the Ministry of Health to carry out the president's directive to create an impactful bureaucracy," he remarked.
The ministry's various efforts include simplifying bureaucracy, shortening business processes, and digitalizing the health sector.
Regarding the digitalization of services, the health sector is one of the priority services integrated by INA Digital in one portal.
Anas stated that the impact of bureaucracy implemented by the ministry can also be seen from the value of the bureaucratic reform index and the value of the government agency performance accountability system (SAKIP).
Based on the evaluation results in 2023, the Ministry of Health's bureaucratic reform index managed to achieve Grade A, while the SAKIP value was Grade BB.
The A predicate for the bureaucratic reform value at the Ministry of Health in 2023 was obtained through the achievements of thematic bureaucratic reform carried out by the ministry.
These achievements include implementing poverty alleviation programs, increasing investment, conducting digitalization of government administration, handling stunting, using domestic products, and controlling the rate of inflation.
"The value of the bureaucratic reform index and the Ministry's SAKIP in 2023 is above the average value of the ministry and institution index," Anas stated.
"We hope that the current predicate can be realized and internalized not only within the Ministry of Health in Jakarta but also in all units of the ministry throughout Indonesia," he further noted.
He expressed hope that in the future, the implementation of SAKIP will be replaced with a government performance accountability system (SAKP). This aims to ensure that the achievement of government agency indicators is in line with the achievement of national indicators.
"We hope that the Ministry of Health would use this momentum to continue to consolidate to improve impactful performance," he stated.
"Hopefully, the Ministry of Health's efforts will become a work culture, an extraordinary spirit for all levels in the ministry, the impact of which can be immediately felt by the community," Anas remarked.
Meanwhile, Minister of Health Budi Gunadi Sadikin drew attention to the ministry's various transformation efforts to support bureaucratic reform within the body.
"This implementation is also in accordance with the president's directive aimed at bureaucracy having a broad impact on society," he affirmed.
He drew attention to various steps by the Health Ministry, starting from digitalizing health services, simplifying regulations to increase investment, and ensuring the supply of medical devices and doctors to provide broad benefits to the community.
In addition, the Ministry of Health is reducing applications and ensuring control over the prices of medical devices and medicines to minimize health inflation rates.

"These various initiatives are carried out by the Ministry of Health in accordance with the target of the minister of PANRB so that the bureaucracy in all government agencies focuses on providing an impact on society," the minister explained.
However, Sadikin pointed to existing shortcomings in the ministry's efforts to carry out bureaucratic transformation.
Sadikin affirmed that the Healthy Ministry is committed to making improvements, with a focus on improving service indicators so that bureaucratic reform in the ministry can be realized according to President Jokowi's direction.
