We applaud Dr. Edward Mortimer's Commentary on the health status of the American Indian population (Pediatrics, 51:1065, 1973). Public statements that "Indian health care is inadequate because it is inadequately funded" and ". . . less than the minimum (money) is provided" are long overdue, and we concur completely with the necessity for us all to help Indians express and fulfill their health needs. We wish, however, to take issue with several remarks regarding the quality and scope of care provided in and through the Indian Health Service.

One of the sectors that are closely related and reasonably determining for the growth and development of the tourism sector is the health sector. The aim of this research  was to a) know the affordability of health care facilities from tourism Prambanan and Plaosan Temple,  b) to know the travel patterns of tourists headed for healthcare facilities. This research uses qualitative descriptive method by using data collection observation techniques, documentation, and data analysis using network analysis. The network analysis method that used is the closest facility. The results of this research show that a) the affordability of the nearest health service facility from the Plaosan Temple object is Kebondalem Lor Puskesmas which is traveled by 1.7 km distance and takes about 4 minutes from the location of Plaosan Temple, while the closest health service facility from the Prambanan Temple is Prambanan Puskesmas which is taken with distance of 5.3 km and travel time 14 minutes from location of Prambanan Temple. to be known travelers can use private vehicles at tourism Plaosan Temple, because the attractions have a radius of 1.7 km. While on the tourist object of tourism Prambanan Temple can not use private vehicle because the mileage exceeds 3 km, and b) The travel pattern of tourists to health care facilities is categorized good, because the tourists can access health services with the nearest route and adequate facilities.

The goals of managerial personnel in Health Service include: defining duties for personnel teams, initiating and co-ordinating team work, care for development and improvement of potential of workers. Requirements for modern companies do not allow for forcing specific behaviour among personnel but praise the ability to communicate by partnership and co-operation and quality of co-operation between the managing person and personnel. Assuming a thesis that there are preferred goals in management by Health Service managers, an attempt to identify them was made with the model of the Inventory of Person Management Styles WERK. The research was conducted on a group of 60 Health Service managers performing functions on various organizational levels. Respondents were managers hired in the public and non-public health care facilities from the Silesian and Podkarpackie Provinces. The analysis of results points that for the largest group of managers, the managing styles model WERK did not define both the dominating managing style as well as a style least typical for management. The fact indicates that managers in the health care facilities probably use the management style adequate to the situation or have the ability to switch between management styles using the characteristics typical for many management styles or use two or more management behaviors which they consider effective. Probability of existing specific management styles can be assumed as well, which are used by the Health Service managers and which have not been defined by the management styles model WERK.

Background: American Indian/Alaska Natives (AI/ANs) are disproportionately affected by hepatitis C virus (HCV), with more than double the national rate of HCV-related mortality as well as the highest rates of acute HCV. The “cascade of care” for HCV consists of screening, confirmation, treatment, and sustained virologic clearance (SVR)/cure. At each stage of this process, patients can be lost to follow-up. Federal health care facilities in an administrative area of the Indian Health Service conducted a review to identify and address gaps in HCV treatment. Facilities generally treated HCV with a strong pharmacy component using a collaborative practice agreement and HCV telehealth services to external specialists. Methods: All facilities had a pharmacist HCV program point of contact. Each pharmacist conducted a chart review of HCV patients and submitted aggregate results on HCV antibody status, HCV confirmation testing, stage of liver disease, initiation of treatment, and SVR/cure. Each facility also ranked current barriers to scaling up HCV treatment services from a defined list of options. Results: Of 1789 HCV antibody positive patients, 77% (1381) had a confirmation test, of which 67% (929) were positive. Of these patients, 62% (576) had their liver fibrosis scored, and 58% (335) had initiated treatment. Of patients with an SVR/cure test, all (274/274) were negative. Discussion: These data indicate that rural clinics can be successful providing HCV diagnosis and treatment. Pharmacists can play a key role in HCV clinical services. The outcomes of each step in the treatment process at the facility level can vary widely due to local factors. The barriers to HCV care that persist are nonclinical.

There are several types of health services that provide information about health care facilities, such as pharmacies, health centers, clinics, and hospitals. Application of health service facilities location is used to facilitate users in reaching the nearest health service facility. The application of the health care facilities location has not been optimally used by the user so often. The advantage of analyzing the system is to determine its direct and indirect effect on the end-user. This research analyzes task technology fit (TTF) of application for the location of health service facilities based on measures of end-user satisfaction and knowledge management system (KMS). The research began with an exploratory study through interviews with users of health service applications. With the results of interviews, the research hypothesis model was built to integrate health service applications with the task technology fit model based on end-user satisfaction. The results obtained from this study are the impact of the performance of a good application system can increase end-user satisfaction in optimizing all the modules that exist in the application. The intended system performance is the quality of information presented by the application including the location of the health service facility and the accuracy of information needed by the end which affects the compatibility of the health service facility application which significantly increase the end-user satisfaction, and this will automatically affect the TTF performance for the better. This needs to be responded to so that the application continues to be updated in real-time to continue to provide information about the application in accordance with the development and needs of end-users.  This linkage shows that the role of task technology fit has a good impact on system development that affects system relationships and end-user satisfaction in applications.

Pendekatan pelayanan terdiri dari 14 promotif, 18 preventif, 21 kuratif, 16 rehabilitatif, dan 2 paliatif. Penyelenggaraan fasyankestrad komplementer griya sehat masih harus dilengkapi, khususnya terkait perizinan, standar sarana prasarana, standar operasional pelayanan, sistem pelaporan dan pengawasan oleh dinas kesehatan kabupaten/kota. Perlu dilakukan sosialisasi ketentuan standar fasilitas griya sehat kepada penyelenggara sesuai pedoman kementrian kesehatan, termasuk tentang kebutuhan pendidikan dan pelatihan bagi tenaga kesehatan tradisional. Kata kunci: pelayanan kesehatan, tradisional, griya sehat Abstract In recent years, traditional health services are growing forward.
