The national strategy document declares the stakeholders across sectors responsible for providing care for people with dementia. Although the development of this document was led by the Ministry of Health, it supposedly serves as a joint plan. However, there is no care coordination pathway across sectors for dementia that can be found in this document (Ministry of Health Republic of Indonesia, 2015b). In the recently drafted National Action Plan of Older People’s Health for 2020-2024, the action plans and indicators are described along with the responsible stakeholders, and this will serve as an additional joint plan to the National Dementia plan document.
