Regulatory Guide · Permenkes 6/2026
Promulgated on 12 June 2026, revoking 21 hospital regulations, with compliance due by 12 June 2028. We break it down from an angle vendors rarely explain: what it means for your hospital's HMS, EMR, and interoperability.
Context
Minister of Health Regulation Number 6 of 2026 on Hospitals was enacted on 4 June and promulgated on 12 June 2026, revoking 21 earlier regulations and decrees — including Permenkes 82/2013 on HMS and Permenkes 1171/2011 on SIRS. Its scope is broad — operations, licensing, governance, quality, financing, recording and reporting, and a new classification (paripurna, utama, madya, dasar).
This page does not cover all of it, but instead filters out the parts that touch the hospital information system: integrated recording and reporting, medical records, audited financial statements, and the new classification. Hospitals must comply by 12 June 2028 — licensed class D pratama hospitals by 12 June 2030 (Article 83) — and the classification transition is governed by Circular HK.02.02/D/7066/2026 (in Indonesian).
What touches the HMS
Every hospital must record and report all of its operations in a health information system integrated with the National Health Information System (Article 74). The technical guideline is set by the Minister (Article 75).
Keeping medical records is a hospital obligation (Article 36(h)). The EMR mandate and sending its data to SATUSEHAT come from Permenkes 24/2022 — Permenkes 6/2026 does not re-regulate the technical side.
Financial statements audited by an independent or government audit body are submitted to the Ministry of Health every year (Article 73) — demanding a clean, auditable financial module.
The paripurna, utama, madya, and dasar classifications are set per service group. During the transition, classes A–D remain the basis for INA-CBG JKN tariffs (Director General of Advanced Health Circular HK.02.02/D/7066/2026) — systems need to hold both.

See Adievia's EMR moduleAn honest mapping: Adievia provides an EMR, SATUSEHAT bridging, and an audit-ready financial module. Most controls are already full; the rest are formalized ahead of the third-party audit (Q1–Q2 2027) — we state it as it is, rather than claiming to be "100% compliant with Permenkes 6/2026 already".
FAQ
Minister of Health Regulation Number 6 of 2026 on Hospitals (Permenkes 6/2026) was enacted on 4 June 2026 and took effect when promulgated on 12 June 2026. It revokes 21 earlier regulations and decrees (Article 84) to reorganize how hospitals operate.
Within 2 years of promulgation, i.e. by 12 June 2028. Class D pratama hospitals that already held a business licence before the regulation took effect have up to 4 years, i.e. until 12 June 2030 (Article 83). Circular HK.02.02/D/7066/2026 confirms that specialty hospitals must adjust their operations and licensing by 12 June 2028.
Not in those words. The text requires hospitals to keep medical records (Article 36) and to record and report their operations in a health information system integrated with the National Health Information System (Article 74). The EMR mandate and sending its data to SATUSEHAT come from Permenkes 24/2022, enforced through administrative sanctions and the EMR-based JKN claims policy.
No. Article 84 revokes, among others, Permenkes 82/2013 on Hospital Management Information Systems, Permenkes 1171/2011 on the Hospital Information System, Permenkes 3/2020 on Hospital Classification and Licensing, and Permenkes 4/2018 on Hospital and Patient Obligations. The new technical guideline for recording and reporting is set by the Minister (Article 75); until it is issued, SIRS Online reporting continues.
Circular HK.02.02/D/7066/2026 (10 September 2026) governs the transition: classes A, B, C, and D remain the basis for INA-CBG tariff grouping until tariffs based on the new classification are set; new hospitals needing a class for JKN can be given a class A–D statement; specialty hospitals become hospitals with flagship services; and 66 hospitals in the Quick Win programme (including RSUD Pongtiku, North Toraja) have their service capability upgraded. Class statements are updated in the RS Online system.
Permenkes 6/2026 does not set a technical data exchange standard. For SATUSEHAT, clinical data is sent as HL7 FHIR R4 resources following the SATUSEHAT profiles, with EMR variables and metadata per Ministerial Decree HK.01.07/MENKES/1423/2022.
Adievia provides an EMR and a SATUSEHAT bridging module (FHIR R4), reporting built from operational data, plus a financial module that can produce audit-ready reports. We honestly flag what already runs fully and what is still being matured; Adievia HMS has been listed in SATUSEHAT's directory of EMR system providers since October 2026, and production submission uses each hospital's own SATUSEHAT organization and credentials.
