INTRODUCTION

Quality health services are the main focus in meeting the needs of the community (Iskandar, 2016). Therefore, hospitals as one of the health service providers must continue to develop the services provided in order to meet the needs and expectations of patients. In the development of health services in hospitals, a comprehensive analysis of internal factors is very important to be carried out. This analysis aims to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the internal hospital, so as to determine the right strategic steps to improve service quality (Sari et al., 2014).

Some internal factors that need to be analyzed in the development of health services in hospitals include the quality of medical and non-medical personnel, available facilities and technology, hospital management, and the availability of necessary resources (Rohmani et al., 2016). However, in recent years, there are several recent facts and issues that need to be considered in the analysis of internal factors (Nasution, 2018).

Improving the quality of health services is the main focus in the hospital development strategy (Suprapto et al., 2021). This is driven by increasing competition between hospitals in providing the best service for patients. The application of technology and innovation in health services is also becoming increasingly important (Putra, 2018). There is an increasing use of technology in healthcare, such as telemedicine and health applications. However, there are still many hospitals that have not utilized this technology optimally.

Hospital management is a key factor in the development of health services. Effective management can optimize the use of existing resources and improve service quality (Utami, 2013). However, there are still many hospitals that experience problems in management, such as lack of transparency in the use of budgets and inappropriate management decisions.

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the development of health services in hospitals. Many hospitals are experiencing great pressure in providing health services to patients, especially during the peak of the pandemic (Ambarwati, 2021). In this regard, a comprehensive analysis of internal factors is essential to ensure the availability of sufficient resources and the effectiveness of hospital operational management.

In order to improve the quality of health services, analysis of internal factors is very important for hospitals to do. By identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the internal hospital, appropriate strategic steps can be determined to improve service quality (Arya &; Rahayu, 2021). Through a comprehensive analysis of internal factors, it is hoped that hospitals can develop better health services and be able to meet expectations (Nugraheni &; Kirana, 2021).

 

METHODS

In this study, the author uses qualitative analysis, which is an analysis carried out on data, written descriptions, and verbal descriptions, then connected with data, written descriptions, and other verbal descriptions to get clarity about the truth or vice versa so that new perspectives are obtained or strengthen existing opinions (Basias &; Pollalis, 2018) . This research is included in descriptive research because this study intends to describe an event, namely human resource planning at Bungur Medika Hospital with the development of hospital services as an effort to improve employee performance. The approach in this study uses an interdisciplinary approach.

Internal analysis has an important role and is needed in starting a business to find out which are the resources and capabilities of a business consisting of marketing, operations, human resources and finance in assessing and determining the  strengths and  weaknesses so as to determine the company's business strategy and competitive advantage  the company (Riniwati, 2016). Hospitals as one of the individual health service facilities are part of health resources that are indispensable in supporting the implementation of health efforts (Nurdiah &; Iman, 2016). Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia No. 47 of 2021 article 2 paragraph 2 states that the classification of hospitals is based on service capabilities, health facilities, supporting facilities and human resources (Susetiyo &; Iftitah, 2021). Article 5 paragraph 2 hospitals must meet the availability of human resources, buildings, facilities, and equipment.

The quality of service provided by  the hospital  to patients shows the picture and view of the hospital itself.  Service that is not good and not of good quality will result in a decrease in patients seeking treatment at  the hospital.

The development of the era of digitalization and technology is currently very developed, giving a huge impact on the progress of information technology systems, including in the health sector, so technology is one of the components that need to be assessed and taken into account in running a business to be able to compete and improve quality and service (Astuti &; Salisah, 2016; Sudirman et al., 2020). Starting and running a type C hospital business and improving services for patients requires technology where the hospital  already has an integrated and guaranteed hospital technology information system, and the    hospital system is connected to the   BPJS system so as to provide speed of data accuracy ranging from the online registration system, bed availability, surgery schedules in  hospitals  , service queues, electronic medical records,  and electronic claims as  well as providing telemedicine services with the aim of providing convenience for patients and improving health services for patients and providing satisfaction for hospital patients.

This technology information system is a form of Hospital Management System specifically designed to manage various aspects of hospital operations  such as patient medical records, doctor practice schedules, data in and out of patients, drug stock inventory, financial to administrative. This system will help support activities that occur in  the hospital  which will integrate and simplify operational activities with the aim that the hospital can focus more on providing excellent service for patients.
