According to the bureaucrat from Pemaron Village, Buleleng, RSBM already has a plenary or highest level of accreditation at the national level.

He said that the Bali Provincial Government is targeting international standards to be issued by 2025. "The accreditation process is ongoing and by 2025 we will have those standards (international-ed)," he added.

It cannot be denied, according to him, many people go on tourist trips to enjoy health services or what is known as Health Tourism. “So we seize this opportunity.

Apart from that, he also hopes that in the future the people of Bali and Indonesia will not go abroad to get health services, because soon Bali will also have a hospital with international standards. In his report, the Director of RSBM, dr. I Gusti Ngurah Putra Dharma Jaya, M.Kes reported that RSBM already has international standards which include service quality, safety and patient satisfaction. However, it has not been accredited even though it has been done, so to increase international trust, accreditation is needed. Apart from that, he also revealed that RSBM is filled with cooperative and professional staff, but constructive input from assessors is also very necessary to improve the quality of the hospital. Meanwhile, Chair of the Assessor Team from ACHS, Timothy Gardner, said that ACHS is a trusted partner in improving the quality of health services for health organizations throughout the world. ACHS currently focuses on the quality of hospital services. Regarding RSBM, he also admitted that this hospital already has good standards, but to be trusted throughout the world, RSBM needs accreditation from a trusted organization." (Rls/Btnc)
