Health Screening of the Elderly Using Geriatric Mobile Apps (SIM Lansia) in Malang Primary Health Care

Abstract

In the city of Malang, there are currently 109,368 geriatrics. However, Malang Primary Health Care (PHC) coverage of geriatrics screening remains low at the end of 2021 (26%). In accordance with the Malang District Health Office’s approval, Google Forms were used for the geriatrics’ data gathering. The purpose of this study was to analyse the difference in geriatric data coverage before and after using SIM Lansia Apps’. This study used a quantitative study design. The population in this study were all Malang city cadres with 57 cadres participating. There were two parts to the data gathering process: the first was to collect the geriatrics’ data after two months of app use, and the second was to conduct a Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) Test with 12 closed-ended questions to ask respondents about their opinions of using the SIM Lansia Apps’. The data was analyzed using the statistic Z test to compare the pre-app use and post-app use coverage data, and the TAM response was categorized using a Likert scale. After utilizing the app, the coverage of geriatric screening data increased by roughly 43.79% (May-July) using SIM Lansia, and the Z test indicated that this increase was statistically significant (P value = 0.000). Five dimensions of the TAM Test revealed that all respondents agree on Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Ease of Use, Attitude Toward Using Technology, Behavioral Intention to Use, and Actual Use of Technology in using SIM Lansia Apps’. The apps showed effectiveness and efficiency in increasing geriatrics’ data gathering coverage in every PHC in Malang City.
