Analysis of Budget Realization and Implementation of Stunting Prevention Program through the Provision of Local Supplementary Food

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of the PMT budget utilization, assess the accuracy of program participant selection, and analyze the compliance of program implementation with the established technical guidelines. This study employs a mixed-methods approach with an explanatory sequential design, in which quantitative data are collected first, followed by qualitative analysis to strengthen the findings. The research sample includes all community health centers (Puskesmas) under the supervision of the Bogor Regency Health Office. The findings indicate significant variations in the efficiency of PMT budget utilization across different health centers. Some Puskesmas, such as Ciasmara and Tenjolaya, successfully optimized their budgets, achieving 100% realization. In contrast, others, such as Bojong Nangka and Cibulan, faced challenges in budget execution due to procurement delays and funding limitations.
