Abstract: 
This study aims to analyze the rights of citizens in obtaining optimization of the implementation of the national health insurance program. This research is in the form of normative or doctrinal legal research/library research, using a statutory approach and conceptual approach. The results of the study reveal that the implementation of the right to health based on the mandate of the 1945 Constitution in Indonesia has not been maximally implemented. This can be seen from the application in terms of facilities, health workers and the application in terms of the national health insurance system. Optimizing the implementation of the guarantee with the issuance of Presidential Instruction of the Republic of Indonesia Number 1 of 2022 concerning Optimizing the Implementation of the National Health Insurance Program was also found to be disharmonized with the principle of Portability and the non-fulfillment of the value of justice or equality of National Health Insurance participants, especially the rules on migrant workers. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct an evaluation related to the fulfillment of citizens' rights to health, as well as to review the Presidential Instruction of the Republic of Indonesia Number 1 of 2022 concerning Optimizing the Implementation of the National Health Insurance Program, especially regarding the obligations of pilgrims and migrant workers to remain active participants, so that the value of the principle of benefits can be obtained by all JKN participants fairly.
