The circular letter is at the discretion of the Minister of health, so there is no regulation regarding telemedicine services carried out between doctors and patients, then strengthened by Minister of health decree no.HK.01.07/Menkes/2021 During the Covid-19 epidemic, guidelines for health services using telehealth were developed. The Indonesian Medical Council (KKI) has issued Perkonsil Number 74 of 2020 with relation to Professional Competence and Healthcare Treatment using Telehealth must be in line with legal and ethical aspects of medicine.
