To improve FP access through JKN, policymakers and health systems decision-makers should consider the
following recommendations:
• Prioritize facilitating the inclusion of more private providers as BPJS-K-contracted providers
• Improve coordination between BKKBN and BPJS-K as well as between BKKBN and health providers to ensure
the availability of FP methods at all health facilities
• Ensure necessary health facilities and adequately trained health providers are available nationwide, particularly in
the most geographically disadvantaged island groups such as Eastern Indonesia

continuous support of Prastuti Soewondo of TNP2K and her team. The brief merited from data analysis contribution
by Thomas Fagan of HP+. Authors greatly appreciate the review by Prastuti Soewondo, and Edhie Rahmat and Zohra
