ITB Expedition Team launches Lerehfarma.id for medicine tracking in Yapsi

The Tim Ekspedisi Patriot (TEP) from the Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB) has launched Lerehfarma.id, a digital platform designed to help residents of the Yapsi District in Jayapura Regency check medicine availability in real-time.

By using the website, residents can verify if specific medications are in stock at local health centers (Pustu) before traveling long distances. The platform includes three primary features: medicine availability information, a citizen complaint service, and regional disease data collection.

To ensure the system's sustainability, TEP ITB has conducted training sessions in Ongan Jaya Village for healthcare workers from the Yapsi Community Health Center and eight surrounding health posts. Muhammad Yudhistira Azis, head of the TEP ITB team, emphasized that local healthcare workers are essential to the long-term success and operation of the innovation.
