Are employees and their families expected to pay for these vaccines?

Question

Accepted Answer

Employees and their families are not expected to pay for the vaccines under the authorised private vaccination scheme.

Employees and their families will not be required to bear the cost of the vaccines themselves. A price ceiling for these vaccinations will be established by the government. This private scheme is permitted to operate in parallel with Indonesia's national vaccination programme.
No Out-of-Pocket Expenses for Employees

The newly authorised ministerial regulation explicitly states that employees and their family members are not to be charged for the vaccines. This ensures that the cost is covered through the scheme's procurement process.
Government-Set Price Ceiling

To manage costs and prevent price gouging, the government will determine a maximum price for the vaccines administered under this private programme. This price ceiling is a key component of the regulation governing the scheme.
State-Procured Vaccines for Private Use

Under this arrangement, companies have the option to purchase vaccines that have been procured by the state. This allows for the utilisation of state-acquired vaccine supplies for private sector employees.
Distribution and Administration Details

The distribution of these vaccines will be managed by the state-owned pharmaceutical company, Bio Farma. Vaccinations must be administered at designated private health facilities, as outlined in the regulation.
