Until now, the level of public awareness to be concerned about the health insurance participants remains low. So many people who are not able to go to the hospital because of high cost.
Seeing these conditions, there is a unique idea of dr. Gamal Albinsaid. This young doctor makes a new breakthrough, namely by setting up clinics "Insurance Premiums Trash" in the city of Malang, East Java. In accordance with the name of his clinic, then anyone who joined the health insurance must pay premiums to the trash every week, where the waste will be valued around Rp 10 thousand per person.
The idea of making clinical waste insurance premium is derived from a true story that happened in Jakarta a few years ago. It is said, there is a scavenger children who died in the wheelie bin father, because the father was not able to take his son to the hospital for treatment.
Later the funds raised will be used for health services, conduct health care quality improvement programs (ex: counseling, nutritional counseling, distribution of books), to prevent the occurrence of illness (preventive), rehabilitative, control diabetes and others.
Unexpectedly, apparently unique insurance related public response was quite good. Until now, the insurance participants already numbers about 500 people. "The plan is an insurance system will be applied in other cities in Indonesia," said Dr. Gamal.
Is proud of his achievement, on Friday, January 31, 2014, an intern at Saiful Anwar Hospital Malang awarded HRH The Prince of Wales Young Winner 2014 First Sustainability Entrepreneurship.
