From the results of the study, it was found that (i) the implementation of Article 9 letter D of Law Number 22 of 2022 concerning health services and proper food has not been implemented optimally because it has not been fulfilled optimally (ii) the main obstacles in health services include limited medical personnel, minimal availability of certain medicines, health facilities that are still inadequate, a long and bureaucratic referral process, and prison overcapacity. Basically, efforts have been made and the services have been made but have not run optimally due to obstacles from the incomplete provision of medicines for health services, as well as a budget that is not balanced with the number of inmates in the Makassar Class 1 prison.
