The implementation of the Regulation of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia Number 12 of 2017 concerning the Implementation of Immunization in the Context of Fulfilling Children's Right to Health at Integrated Service Posts (Posyandu) in the Cimandala Village area, Bogor Regency is the focus of this research to evaluate the effectiveness of its implementation. This study aims to assess the extent of the implementation of immunization policies in accordance with applicable regulations and analyze the factors that affect immunization coverage in the region. This study uses a descriptive approach with analysis of complete basic immunization coverage data (IDL) and evaluation of the efforts of health workers and health cadres in the implementation of immunization at Posyandu. The implementation of the Minister of Health Regulation Number 12 of 2017 in the Posyandu in the Cimandala Village area has not been optimal. Data shows that IDL coverage is below the national target, which is 75.71% in 2021, 69.83% in 2022, and 67.31% in 2023. Low IDL coverage contributes to the persistence of immunization-preventable cases of diseases, such as tuberculosis, pneumonia, and measles in children under 5 years of age. The efforts of health workers and health cadres in the implementation of immunization have also not met expectations, showing the need for improvement in the implementation of the policy.
