Abstract

Indonesia's National Health Insurance holds several programs for society welfare improvement, especially in health matters. One of the programs assumed to be still controversial is the education program for the Primary Care Physician. Indonesian Physicians Association handling and managing professional doctor licensing strongly refuses that program. This study applies a qualitative approach designed to make a benefit-cost analysis of the education program for Primary Care Physician by employing mental accounting theory. The result of the study shows that the doctors are enthusiastic about joining the program if it is free. Unfortunately, the unfixed state of policy by the government brings about a doubtful consideration to deal with the program. The benefit analysis indicates that the material benefit the doctor hopes is not sufficiently covered. However, they still have the humane based benefits by implementing their knowledge and skill to help society. One extraordinary struggle they must go on when taking the Primary Care Physician program is their inmost welfare (satisfaction inside).
