Research Center for International Health Development, Tokai University Graduate School of Medicine, Kanagawa, Japan Training Course on Health Financing for Central Units and Provincial Health Planner, Indonesia 2007 What is Health Financing? Health manager’s worry is same as budget is not enough always than our needs, in every organization. And, managers are so busy and then they cannot look after accounting, for efficient and effective utilization. But, managers should have skills for optimum resource allocation to balance needs and service, and for maximum utilization of existing resources. Health financing is not only monetary issue. It is a combination of intellectual knowledge and application to activate your organization and maximize services for people’s happiness. What is Value Learning in Japan? It is well known that Japan has succeeded on recovery from damages after World War II, achieved very long life expectancy (Male: 79.0, Female: 85.8 in 2006) ahead of other nations in the world. One of the reasons of living long is universal coverage by health insurance, whereby covering all Japanese by health insurance. Besides it, Japanese health insurance assures “Free Access” which means everyone can access any kind of health facilities freely. It was a remarkable improvement on health financing, because people can access health care in low payment and health facilities are assured certain income related to provided services. But, through such achievement, several problems have emerged. One such is behavior change of people. After they get health insurance card, people want to visit health facility even for any minor illness, because visiting health facility became their right. Especially old people have enough time to access health facilities, thus health care dependency people increased by time. High ageing society (19.8% of age over 65 population in 2005) and low TFR (only 1.26 in 2005) force decrease of young population pose decline health insurance premium and increase of health expenditure. In such situation, Japanese government forced health reforms for health containment, and latest reform has started in 2007. You can learn much from Japan’s achievements, problems and new approaches. What is our Goal? Each country or province or district has different and unique history, background, custom and behavior.

Our objective is to clarify current situation and differences from others, thus induce knowledge and skills to solving problems and planning in optimum way under your situation.
