| Summary: | Health condition in Solaang Mongondow District specially is categorized low compared to other more advanced regions. Sy using qualitative methods, this article clarifies poor families' access to healthcare in Solaang Mongondow and identifying internal and external difficulties in accessing one. The informants are categorized as providers and clients of healthcare, specially poor families holding Askeskin (health insurance program for poor people) card that have experience in accessing healthcare in puskesmas (community health center). The result indicates that 1) poor family's access to healthcare in Solaang Mongondow is not yet optimum. When they were ill, the Askeskin holders should decide either to take care of themselves or seek for medical treatment from private hospitals. Ironically, some rich people get the Askeskin card also. The poor families sometimes were charged additional fees to cover such healthcare as childbearing and maternal and infant healthcare |
