Health sector is aresponsibility of the local government, even though it isfrequently included in the political policies of a leader. Thedirection of healthcare service development, particularly atthe level of Health Center, has been maintained in the Mayor'sDecree of Singkawang No. 82/2009 on the subsidiary ofhealthcare in Kota Singkawang.Objective: To find out the quality of healthcare at the HealthCenters in relation to the primary healthcare subsidy based onthe perception of society, control/supervision of Local HealthOffice, management, service time, service capacity/type, andattitude of the health center staffs.Method: A descriptive research with case study design wasconducted in three Health Centers: Singkawang Tengah, SingkawangTimur, and Singkawang Utara Health Centers.

From the Reliability dimension,a score of 2.92 was found for Point 2 quick examinationservice with reference to the standard procedure and a scoreof 2.97 for Point 5, the timeliness of healthcare. From the Responsivenessdimension, a score of 2.77 was found for Point 3– the patients did not wait long to get the healthcare service –and a score of 2.94 for Point 4 – the working hour of the HealthCenter. Qualitative analysis showed that the Local Health Officecontrolled/supervised the Health Centers by means of utilization/visit reports and management. It was found that servicetime was frequently ignored and that service type/capacity atthe Health Centers was constrained by the availability of reagentsand medication. The health staffs tended to ignore servicequality and time and there was an indication of deviation inthe utilization/visit reports sent by the Health Centers.Conclusion: The Local Health Office did not have adequatetools to control/supervise the Health Centers, as evident fromthe aspect of management, service time, service type/capacity,and health staff attitude. Procurement of healthcare supplieswas hampered by bidding process and the health staffs needcontinuous training and development.Keywords: Health Office, Health Centers, Public Perception,and Healthcare quality
