Kunta Wibawa Dasa Nugraha, Secretary General of the Ministry of Health, confirmed on Thursday that the MoU will serve as the foundation for various capacity-building programs aimed at improving the resilience of Indonesia’s health system.
“This initiative is designed to reinforce long-term health system resilience and promote access to high-quality healthcare services across all regions of Indonesia,” Nugraha said.
The partnership focuses on enhancing the skills and capacity of health workers, particularly in radiology, cardiovascular care, and interventional procedures.
As part of the agreement, both parties will develop a comprehensive training program to support the professional development of healthcare professionals.
In addition, a training center and service center will be established to improve the lifecycle management of medical devices, ensure optimal performance, and expand access to technology across healthcare facilities nationwide.
“Digital health system development will improve service quality, strengthen system integration, and enhance operational efficiency,” Nugraha added.
He emphasized that the collaboration reflects the Indonesian government’s commitment to driving innovation in the health sector and accelerating the adoption of advanced technologies and infrastructure.
“This is a vital investment in the future of Indonesia’s healthcare system,” he said.
In the same statement, Astri R. Dharmawan, President Director of Philips Indonesia, said the company is excited to support the Ministry of Health’s efforts to transform the national healthcare system and improve services.
She expressed confidence that Philips’ global experience and strong partnerships with healthcare providers could deliver integrated, innovative solutions to help achieve these goals.
