Abstract

The Social Security Administering Body (BPJS) is the Indonesian government agency to handle national health insurance. Armed with the concept of cooperation, BPJS is expected to manage the participants' finances to become the national health guarantor in Indonesia. This paper uses a normative legal research approach to see the legality aspects of the BPJS in carrying out its duties as a national health guarantor. Health insurance is the state's responsibility, so the state is obliged to create a national health insurance system that is fair to all Indonesian people. All the people in this country have their rights fulfilled for good health services.
