| Summary: | This paper presents the results of a
trend analysis of key health indicators in Indonesia. The
analysis is based on data from the National Socioeconomic
Survey for Indonesia (SUSENAS) for the years 1995, 1997, and
1998. The analysis is part of an effort to monitor the
impact of the country's current economic crisis on
health outcomes and to identify groups that may have
benefited or been disadvantaged in recent years. The
economic crisis could affect health outcomes in a number of
ways. Changes in employment patterns and incomes that
occurred as a result of the crisis are likely to have had an
effect on health outcomes and the demand for health care. In
this paper, the authors attempt to analyze the health
information available through the SUSENAS to establish
baselines against which to compare future trends and
possible impacts on the health sector. The paper discusses
some possible hypotheses for how the crisis may be affecting
health care utilization. |
