JAKARTA, KOMPAS.TV – The Covid-19 Management Working Group emphasized that the government will bear the costs of treating patients with corona virus.

This was transmitted by a spokesperson for Wiku Adisasmito at a press conference on Thursday (01/10/20).

However, this fee is borne by the government and only applies to treatment at the Covid-19 referral hospitals.

“So, of course, patients who are treated in private hospitals, if they are not part of the referral hospital, certainly cannot be covered,” Wiku said, quoted by Kontan.co.id.

Currently, there are many designated referral hospitals for Covid-19 patients. This includes private hospitals that actively participate as referral hospitals.

In addition to treatment issues, you can also pick up Covid-19 positive patients in an ambulance. This is considered safer to avoid transmission due to non-standard handling.
