Observations conducted by the researcher in RT 16 showed that out of 12 participants are still not fully familiar with the use of the Mobile JKN application. Based on preliminary studies conducted by the researcher on 10 JKN participants in RT 16, it was found that 6 participants (60%) were unaware of how to use the Mobile JKN application. Meanwhile, 4 participants (40%) knew how to use the Mobile JKN application but preferred to visit Primary Health Facilities (FKTP) instead, citing difficulties in understanding and registering for the Mobile JKN application initially.
