The Government is currently strengthening public outreach to encourage more people to take advantage of the CKG program. Residents only need to bring their national identity card (KTP) to access the service. After registering, participants undergo a health examination followed by a consultation with a doctor to discuss the results and receive guidance on preventive measures.
According to a Health Ministry survey, the CKG program has found that millions of Indonesians have risk factors that could develop into serious illnesses. Screening results from tens of millions of participants identified the most common conditions as elevated blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, central obesity and oral health problems.
