The implementation of digital health information systems, such as e-Puskesmas, plays an important role in supporting electronic medical records in primary healthcare facilities. However, technical constraints, including network instability and system integration issues, may affect user satisfaction among healthcare workers. This study aims to analyze healthcare workers’ satisfaction in using e-Puskesmas based on the End User Computing Satisfaction (EUCS) method. This research employed a quantitative analytic approach with a cross-sectional design, involving 35 healthcare workers at Puskesmas Klangenan using total sampling. The variables consisted of five EUCS dimensions, namely content, accuracy, format, ease of use, and timeliness. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire with a Likert scale and analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman correlation test. The results showed that user satisfaction was categorized as very satisfied across all EUCS dimensions, with mean scores ranging from 4.11 to 4.47. All EUCS dimensions had a positive and significant relationship with user satisfaction (p < 0.05), with format and ease of use showing the strongest correlations. It can be concluded that the quality of system and information in e-Puskesmas significantly influences healthcare workers’ satisfaction, indicating the need for continuous system development to support optimal healthcare services.

Telemedicine is a technology-based healthcare innovation that can improve access and efficiency. The quality of service provided by human resources (HR) plays a crucial role in determining patient satisfaction. This study aims to analyze the influence of HR service quality on patient satisfaction among telemedicine users.

The development of wearable technology, especially smartwatches, opens up great opportunities in preventive health monitoring, especially in rural areas such as Sembung Village, Wringinanom, Gresik, where access to health services is limited. However, this technology is still alien to the local community. Preliminary surveys show that the majority of citizens, including health cadres, have never used or even seen a smartwatch in person, and view it as a luxury and irrelevant item. In fact, the potential of smartwatches as “digital health assistants” is huge from tracking heart rate, blood oxygen levels (SpO₂), stress levels, to physical activity reminders that are essential for early detection of health disorders. This service activity aims to improve digital literacy and adoption of smartwatch technology through a participatory educational approach and direct assistance. Implementation methods include: (1) coordination with the village government and health workers, (2) Interactive socialization using local languages, (3) step-by-step practical training, (4) simulation of application in the field, and (5) pre-test and post-test evaluation of 27 participants (25 health cadres, 1 midwife, 1 nurse). The results showed significant improvements: function understanding from the original value of 1.8 increased to 4.2, consumption interest from the original value of 2.1 increased to 4.0, benefit perception from the original value of 1.9 increased to 4.3, self confidence from the original value of 1.5 increased to 3.8, and digital literacy awareness from the original value of 2.0 increased to 4.1. The hands-on approach proved effective in changing participants ' mindset from skeptical to enthusiastic, proving that the digital divide is not due to incompetence, but the lack of access to contextual education. The implication is that smartwatch has the potential to become a strategic tool for village health cadres in early detection and real-time data-based health education, provided that it is supported by sustainable mentoring.

The implementation of digitalization in the healthcare sector through the Integrated Referral sistem (Sistem Informasi Rujukan Terintegrasi/SISRUTE) offers significant opportunities to expand access and improve the quality of healthcare services, especially in remote and underserved areas of Indonesia. This paper aims to analyze the challenges of implementing SISRUTE from a legal perspective, focusing on the principle of equitable healthcare access. The study uses a normative juridical approach combined with literature analysis, examining national regulations, including Law No. 17 of 2023 on Health, Government Regulation No. 47 of 2021 on Hospital Administration, and supporting ministerial policies. The research identifies several barriers that hinder the effectiveness of SISRUTE implementation, such as uneven distribution of digital infrastructure, limited internet connectivity, lack of adequately trained healthcare personnel, and the absence of supporting local regulations that align with national policy frameworks. These challenges create disparities in the utilization of SISRUTE, particularly in rural and remote areas, undermining the constitutional mandate for equal access to health services. From a legal standpoint, the principle of equity in healthcare has yet to be fully realized through SISRUTE due to these systemic gaps. The study concludes that strategic efforts are needed to improve intergovernmental coordination, harmonize health and digital regulations, strengthen healthcare workers' digital competencies, and invest in robust infrastructure development. Only through an integrated legal, technological, and human resource approach can SISRUTE fulfill its intended function in supporting a fair, inclusive, and effective healthcare referral system nationwide. This paper contributes to ongoing discourse on legal reforms for digital health equity in Indonesia.
