before patients arrive at formal health facilities. Prehospital patient services are the ideals of the nation
as stated in the 1945 constitution, in article 28H which says that every citizen has the right to obtain
health services in Indonesia. This service does not fully have a clear legal basis in law. So it will be a
socio-legal change in the community if regulations related to pre-hospital health services can be formed
and implemented to the community. Research Methods: used qualitative with a normative juridical
approach and literature study technique. Research Results: The existence of laws regulating pre-hospital
services provides three main benefits, namely legal certainty for organizers, justice in access for people
across regions and economic backgrounds, and benefits in the form of improving the quality of health
services. The impact of its implementation includes social changes in the pattern of community access
to health services and the active role of local community institutions in the emergency service system.
However, technological developments that support these services also pose new challenges, such as the
potential for cybercrime that must be anticipated. Comprehensive and adaptive regulations are needed
to guarantee pre-hospital health services. Conclusion: the law of pre-hospital services has an impact on
improving the degree of public health and will change the pattern the community in accessing health
services, so that it will provide certainty, justice and benefits to the community.
